Hi vvave, and welcome to Eurobricks and the MCW.

First of all, I'd like to remind you that this is a community for AFOLs, and we require a minimum of maturity from our members, such as using proper spelling, punctuation and capitalisation in their posts. This is not a chat room, and we all can take a moment to re-read before posting, to ensure our posts are easily readable.

Now, about your question, I personally do not know of any good 'fast' way to do what you want to do. You could, of course, try to transform the image via programs such as Photoshop (or free equivalents) as to obtain a flattened version of the original. But I doubt about the quality of the final product obtained with such a method.

Otherwise, you'll have to re-design the face onto the template in order to have it in a printable format.

If you do not know or have the ability/programs/time to do so yourself, you can require some of your decal designers to help you via the Decal Wish List topic pinned in this same section of the forum.

Do not forget to check our Index, too. It contains mostly torso decals, but maybe the design you like already exists and you just need to download and print it.

I hope these info can be of help to you, or maybe some other member can offer different solutions.

Have fun on EB.
