Official Jet Pack Symbols

:eek: (blushing) Thanks, guys! You did a great job as well, Mirax! :love:thumbsup:

Eli, thanks to YOU!!!! BTW, yes. I've done (mostly) with the costume, so sometime today I'll be posting pics of the costume if the weather around here permits...

Guys, like Eli said, don't feel jealous about it, it was just a trial set to see how it looks and fits on the JP, in order for him to make adjustments accordingly, which I've seen that they look way better now (the new ones he's offering now), specially the tank top symbols, which in mine were a little bigger than expected, but I managed to make them fit.

Posting pics of those two later today.

Man, this is taking longer than I thought:(
These tiny details are a pain in the butt to weed out. . .:angry
Might have to finish mailing these off early next week, since I can't work on these during the weekend.
Sorry guys for the delay:eek:

Guys, just an update of the pics I posted earlier in this thread...I have the pics of the tank tops now posted there.

About Eli's statement, please guys, have just a little patience, cause believe me or not, this decals are not a joke to apply...much less are in the making process.

Just a brief description of these ones: these decals are just in the same concept as the vinyl lettering or logos you apply in cars (remember the one that Eli did of the Bantha skull in white for the cars with thedentedhelmet.com words below)...this is the same, but at a WAY smaller scale. The weathering this symbols has, HE has to take and peel off the "scratched" areas of each symbol and each character detail by detail. So imagine this just using a hobby knife, and probably a microscope (???) :rolleyes

Guys, in behalf of Eli, this is the most difficult job someone in this forum could ever have, even more work than painting or assembling a Fett armor which is just cut, sand, prime, and paint...but this is precise, calmed, patient, and accurate...just in quantities and really small! Just my 2 cents!

Robert, you're right the ones I sent you are a little too big, the new ones are .5" in height, but PM me on the height of those stripes and the space you are working with between them and I'll send you some new ones.

I'm using a new clear masking on these which have a little less tac, the ones Mirax H got, and they are much easier to apply, but you'll still have to make sure that all the little pieces are on your JP as you peel off the masking.

:lol: You are way too kind Robert:lol:, it may not be the most difficult job in comparison to the work everyone on the TDH has done(I think all those things you just mentioned are way harder and more time consuming, at least in my opinion) but this does take more time than the other decals I've personally done so far, it's a pain and requires a lot of patience and my eyes hurt after a while looking at all those little pieces and replacing ones that come off:facepalm.

Robert, a big thanks for all your support on my projects, as well as everyone who orders my work.
I'll do all I can to make sure these go out next week.

To all the ones that have the "PAID" next to their order have been sent out today. Sorry for the delay on these, but I've been busy with my new girlfriend and between her and work, I don't have too much "me time". I hope you guys understand and again I apologize.
I included a print out labeling the decals and a piece of vinyl just in case you need to cut out a missing detail (which I don't think you will need to do).
Again these are really tiny, so be careful when peeling them off before and after application.

Please let me know when these arrive.
Thanks,
Ely

GUYS - these are a very poor copy from the file I created about 2 years ago in adobe. Never thought you could recast graphics.

I don't understand why people don't come to the source for these graphics (I have a drawer full of them) and why someone would feel the need to directly lift them.

OK, after doing a little bit of looking through the ref. cd here's what I've seen:
On BB's MoM pics of the jet-pack there are 6 symbols:
1)middle of the left tank top
2)middle of the right tank top
3)top right of the main tank
4)bottom left of the main tank (white section)
5)bottom right of the main tank (white section)
6)bottom of the main tank (below the middle blue section)

The pre-production pack has 8 symbols:
Same 6 as above plus one each on the blue section right below the left and right tank tops.

On the AoSW there are only 3 symbols: the first 3 on the list.

It also looks like there are a lot of differences between the symbols on each, some slight others major.

Should I go with the MoM pics?
What's the consensus?
. . .Jango's, that's another story:(

Like, these ones???

pubimage.asp


These symbols pic are for the Boba Fett Jet Pack, and this stickers pic came originally like that, kind of fuzzy and somehow unreadable (so, don't blame me now for that). This will give an idea to everyone of what we're talking about.

BTW, this is NOT a VashDStampede's version, that's why we're looking forward from him to improve them.

I didn't really understand the nature of this post, was this directed at me?:confused
All the work I have done for the chest and Jet-pack symbols have been based on the MoM pics, I would never copy or use someone else's work without their permission (ie: Ego's shoulder logos).
It took me hours to digitize the symbols I have used for the decals, and I too would be upset if someone copied or used the pictures without my consent, but again, I used the pictures off of the ref. cd and not your work. In fact I mentioned all this in my earlier posts.

However, if you meant this about having your graphics included in DV1's post, I'm sure he'll be kind enough to remove it (or one of the mods). He's a great guy who just wanted to help out.

I hope there is no hard feelings with this misunderstanding,
Thanks,
Ely
