How do you use decals?

[Capn Kirk 911]

Can anyone tell me how you use the skins and how you can put them on your figures, I would be eternally greatful ;-) !! Pics. would be helpful too if anyone has any, and what matterials do I need.

[Khorne]

What skins are you talking about? Forum skins? I don't see how you could be able to put those on minifigs X-D .

[Mister Phes]

Yes, what do you mean by "skins"?

[El Bucanero]

Well, I don't know what you mean exactly... But if you mean ''skins'''for minifigs,(we call them torso decals)then you should take a look in The great library for pirate torso/decals etc

[Capn Kirk 911]

sorry, I ment in the torso libary, how can yu put them on your minifigures, like what MR. TIMBER was talking about above me, thank-you mr. Timber.

[Scouty]

The best is waterstickers. But also, a good joice is sticker-paper. You print the torsos on the sticker-paper and you can cut it out. Then apply to a minifigure torso. Does this help?

[Mister Phes]

Do we have a tutorial for this kind of thing yet? We should yers know?

[Scouty]

I don't exactly fall in this type of expertise, but I do know some. Not enough to make a strong tutorial however.

[Mister Phes]

We need a tutorial for this kind of thing! Find me a tutorial maker now!

[Capn Kirk 911]

thank-you, do you know where they sell stcker paper, would office max possibly have some? |-/

[Mister Phes]

Apparently Office Max does. But I don't like in an area with an Office Max so I can't confirm that.

[Scouty]

Anywhere that sells shipping suplise or even just an office supply store should have them.

[Capn Kirk 911]

k, thanks I go ouit and try it , *fingers crossed that it's going to work*! :'-)

[Mister Phes]

Lets us know how you go Cap'n Kirk. Also take progress pictures if you can so we can see exactly what you're up to.

Tiber not Timber...

Capn, I have made lots of custom figs and use PRITT.

It will not damage the original print of the minifig in any way and you can remove it easily with some water.

You just print the decal, use some scissors to cut it out, apply the Pritt to the decal, put it on the fig.

If you want to make some more advanced designs you can take a look at my pope tutorial.

[Brick Miner]

not really a tutorial, but a similar thread exists here. it may be helpful, if you scroll down the page, the process i use is described.

Where do you get your PRITT?

[Bonaparte]

Where do you get your PRITT?

In a Pritt shop X-D

In a Pritt shop X-D

I didn't know there are special Pritt shops!

[Capn Kirk 911]

Like do you mean HOMEDEAPO, WOULD THEY HAVE THEM THERE! :-/

[Bonaparte]

I have never heard about Homedeapo, but here in Belgium they have them in every supermarket, paper store,... . I don't think that the brand has to be Pritt, there many of these sticks vendors.

[Governor Broadside]

Just to avoid any possible confusion, it's Home Depot.

Aha :) ! That I have seen already (on TV).

Homedeapo sounded like such a strange name...

[Capn Kirk 911]

sorry, about that :-$ would they have it there! |-/
