Oh snap! Maybe the old link I clicked on wasn't working right. Thanks guys! Any reviews on these? Has anyone tried on of these before?

I have some to put on SE and SS. However, I've not yet decided whether I want to or not. They're "shiny" once applied. The bright side is, they're inexpensive and if you can live with the "shiny" aspect you're good. But given the price of these guys, you'd almost be better off begging Evilface to make up a template to use to paint the Arashikage sigil on the figure.

Would a coat of dullcote remove the "shiny" or would that damage the decal?

Not sure, I didn't put them on. But dullcoat never worked on model airplane decals and since this is water transfer, I'm assuming it wouldn't work here either.

Maybe a little template is the way to go like you were saying before...

 

[Kibagami]

Template? Or do you mean stencil?

Do you know what "template" means?

Template

a stencil, pattern or overlay used in graphic arts (drawing, painting, etc.) and sewing to replicate letters, shapes or designs

a pre-developed page layout in electronic or paper media used to make new pages with a similar design, pattern, or style

Form letter, a predefined letter which retains its primary intent when individually customised with variable data or text.

Do you know what "template" means?

Template's too general of a term. When I think stencil I think of stencil graffiti art. Template could be anything.

Do we need a link to MD for a template?

 

[EVILFACE]

I could make one. Decal or a stencil to paint on.

That would be awesome Evilface! I would totally be down for one Template/Stencil thingie (LOL) or matte decal!

 

[Diesel-31]

Maybe a new pic will liven things up?

 

[devilof76]

How did you get his swords and quiver going the right way?

 

[EVILFACE]

I did that as well by making my own backpack thingy like the original figure. . .

 

[devilof76]

So it requires work?

 

[EVILFACE]

Work/Correct looking backback > no work/what sideshow gave us

 

[devilof76]

My path is clear to me now.
