*Update 4/10*
I just dropped these off at the post office
Let me know when you receive them. I threw in a bonus or two
By the way, you can weather these before or after you remove the border around them.

When removing the emblem itself, be careful not to rip off the ends of the "wheat" and make sure your fingers are clean so that no dirt will go on the adhesive side of the decals.

Like the shoulder emblems, you can apply these using the dry method making sure you slowly apply it and press down the decal from top to bottom or visa versa.
You can also go the wet method by mixing about a teaspoon of water with a touch of dishwashing liquid (not much, literally a touch) and wetting the adhesive part of the decal thoroughly as well as the area you will put it on. Place it where you want, place the backing of the decal on it shiny side down (so hopefully you didn't throw it away) and squeegee it with a credit card until all the water is gone. Let dry and you're done!


*Update 4/09/03*
(By the way while I was stuffing the envelopes, the amount I printed was just enough to fill all the orders I had with one or two extras. So for those who missed out, if there is enough interest, I might do another run.)

I put in the decals today and these are ready to be mailed, but I don't think I can make it to the post office in time, so I might have to send them off tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.

Thanks everyone
Ely

No problem about your cousin, just tell him/her to include your name or TDH name in the notes section.
Just e-mail me at the same address as to where to send it.

PM sent

Si

Ely, please put me down for a set of each!



Thanks man!

-Rex

Can you put me down for a weathered one please?

One clean one weathered please.

Two (2) weathered decals here, please!

Robert

I will send most of these off hopefully tomorrow, so if you want yours shipped this time around, please send payment soon.
As always, I will include some extra goodies with them.

Thanks,
Ely

I'll take a weathered one please!

Sure Ely!
I'll trade your weathered decal for my jet pack.....pics! hahahaha! :-)
Seriously thou, thanks! I'll give you a buzz thru e-mail & will inform my cuz about it.

Mardon

What, Mardon? No trade? Well, didn't hurt to ask

I still have a few shoulder emblems left, so to those who ordered a chest decal, tell me whether you want a shoulder emblem as well, ESB or ROTJ

Ely.....me, me, me! :-)
I havent made shoulder armors yet - but it wont hurt having some decals first :-)
All ESB decals please.

I'll give you a buzz thru e-mail & tell me cost.
Thanks Ely!

Mardon

oppss.....wrong thread. Sorry :-)

you've got cash man.

I'll take one weathered. ESB of course

EDIT: Was I too late??

As for now the list is closed and I am awaiting the rest of the payments, as well as crisisfilms' shipping info.
No you're not too late

I will make more of these if there are any more interest.

Thanks again guys
Ely

Ely,

You got mail.

Stay safe.

Tim.

I got mine today. Very nice. I really like the weathered one as it is not the easiest thing in the world to give a white, semi-glossy decal a dull, worn look. Getting one in which this is already done is the way to go in my book. A coat or two of Dull Cote will kill the shine.

I've got my set of decals, and ready istalled. Posting pics tomorrow...I don't want to miss tonights WWE RAW!

Robert

Ely,

Chest embelem's arrived today.

They look even better in person!

You rock!

Jer

Got mine. Thanks!

I just finished WWE RAW, now to business, and business is goooooood!!!...
Here are the pics of my decals installed in my second-hand, repainted, customized MB armor, decals by VashDStampede!!!Ego is right, they look awesome in person, pics makes no justice to them, somehow...plus the rest of my armor to share with everyone:






Any opinions, just say so! By the way, all dents and scratches are REAL, 3-paint job, following the best I could with the Reference CD from the MoM section. Thanks Vash for the decals, awesome job!

Robert


Robert

Thanks everyone, I'm glad a few of you got yours already, they were all mailed at the same time so the others should get there soon.

DV1: As I told you before, that's an awesome set of armor you got there. The decals are just accessories
I on the other hand have decals, but no armor. . . I could always just paint my chest and shoulders and stick these suckers on

DV1 - Nice armor, but I think you may have hi-jacked Ely's topic just a bit. Also, your pics are way too big (guys with dial-up connections will be waiting days for those to load). Try scaling them down to about 600x400 or less.

Thanks

BF, thanks for the comments, and yes, I know they're big. Sorry guys for the inconvenience for those who have dial-up connection and to go a little off-topic here, just wanted to show Eli's decals on the armor...but I just kept going! Sometime today, I'll edit and remove a few of the pics for the benefit of a lot of guys here.

Robert

I received mines today and they are perfect and good enough for me . Now it's time to continue my work on my metal armor.
Thank's ELI for the great work you did on these bad boys.

Got mine today, too!! These are excellent, Ely! I couldn't have found anything better... Plus, thanks for all the extra decal goodies!

DV1 nice weathering on the armor but pictures are way too big, they dont fit on the screen of my laptop.
Thank God I have Cable. Still waiting for my decals VD.

Just got mine today as well, & couldn't be happier! They are excellent! I just gotta get myself a new set of armor now! Thanx again Eli

Decals arrived in Manila! They are awesome....thanks Ely!!
****, that sure was fast, bro! :-)

Yeah it was, some of the guys here locally either just haven't posted yet or haven't received theirs yet.
The postal system boggles me sometimes

Since this is the first time I've made these, I'm glad there was good response to them.

Dang! I missed these!

If you have any left over, or are considering another run, PLEASE put me down for some!

VD, I haven't received mine yet. It should arrive sometime this week. Will let you know.

ROTJ shoulder decal 2.0?? Is there room for improvement??

Yeah, let me know. I'm sorry it's not there yet, USPS is so unpredictable

No not really, I just like the sound of that. But it will be printed using my finer mesh screen, so it will be quite a bit sharper

If there are any weathered ones left add me to the list and PM me payment info.

Hey Ely,

6 days to get to Manila is sure fast! :-)
BTW- ever considered doing helmet decals (kill markings) and jet pack decals?
Something to think about, eh? :-)

Mardon

PM sent. Email sent.
Put me down for 1 weathered one if not too late.

Yes, I definitely want at least (1) weathered chest emblem, and an ESB shoulder emblem.

I say at least (1) because I might want to get another of each of possible. My skills are feeble and if I screw up the first, I'll have a backup.

mlcallanta wrote:

Mardon

Never thought about it until now, but I'm sure I can be persuaded to.
I just need to look for good pics of them and possible sizes, but I think it would be very possible.
As for the kill markings, many prefer this to be painted on, easier to weather and I think the originals were painted as well, but I could be wrong, but also possible.
Just need to know if there are any actual interest in them.
If and when I do, you know who will get one right away don't you. . .
. . . me of course

Yeah, baby! Second run. Wooo Hoooo!

Si

PM'd Ely, but needed to post here.

Got mine, a set of each and they are excellent!

Well done Ely!!

Jet Pack decals would be great.

I think the best way to do the kill mark are if you paint them yourself with spray paint and a little weathering, but still not a bad idea.

Eli, as a matter of fact, I have a set of "Kill Marks" orange and yellow, and a set for one helmet decals (ESB markings), inverted "U" for both right and left sides. I have also a set of Jet Pack decals that include the area to be applied at. I could supply you with these and you could go from there, without doing a lot of work to improve them if you want. I just don't like the way or the quality they were made of (normal printer paper sticker material). PM me for details for these, everyone will probably be interested in this. BTW, let me know if you got what I sent you???

Robert

Yeah, painted "kill" markings might be the best way to go - but still would like to see decal markings if possible :-)
But first, do jet pack decals Ely! :-) I'm sure there would be some interest in this.

Mardon

Jet pack decals: I'll be working on these soon

Hey, I recieved my decals today. I am VERY pleased with how they turned out. It made me realize how unaccurate my previous ones were. Nice job and thanks for the extras

Thanks
Phil

VD, I got my chest decals a few days ago, could not post sooner because I am on vacation and could not find a internet cafe till now. Thanks.

I'm debateing on weather to get a set of these? Does anyone have a pics of it on FP's armor? My real concern is the size proportion to FP's armor. No doubt, the decals looks great.
Thanks.

Just ran (literally) to the post office and mailed most of these.
As always, expect a couple of surprises

I still have a few left, so it's not too late to get one of these.

Thanks,
Ely

I'll take one of each. ROTJ and ESB shoulder and clean and dirty chest emblems.
Just let me know how much and when they're ready.
Thanks

Gotcha covered
PM sent.
