Printing Browns

[Hobbestimus]

Hey all,

I've been having a lot of difficulty making stickers to match Lego's brown parts. Lego so many shades of brown, and I can't seem to match any of them well enough. I'm not having this problem with any other color on my decals.

Any tips or suggestions for matching that perfect head or torso?

Well, what colour chart are you using for them? We have Shadows 2008's one (the one I use, which should still be valid) and the official LEGO colour chart from 2011 (latest version available, as far as I know).

These should help you fix the problem. If that still doesn't work, it might be a printer problem in the colours balance, but I'm not too sure if that'd be possible for brown tones only.

Thanks!
