Decal or transfer? It seems there are multiple ways to apply (water, heat, pressure...) and for different targets (ceramic, fabric...), and of course, for different printer types (laser, inkjet...).
The two terms seem to be used interchangeably so for the removal of doubt, these were water applied, billed as being for hobbyists (so to apply to plastic/metal models) and for a laser printer.
Your result reminds me of the cheap one, print with laser printer and thin paper, cover the surface with acrylic medium, then push the paper and let dry. Hours later soak with water and peel the paper away.
Got any examples or threads where this technique has been demonstrated?

It was other place, and maybe I misremembered where to apply the gel, but this simple transfer tutorial is pretty much the same thing (there gel goes to the picture). And trying to get the one I hit time ago, I found others where gel is applied to both parts. :orc:

First time I saw something about this laser+gel tech was when looking for digital camo and hit places showing it for articulated dolls. I guess it would be usable for vehicles in smaller scales.

Individual images? No, saves fine for me.
Or do you mean the .rar file?

Both.

Very strange. All of the images in the first post save correctly as .jpg files, but won't open - stating corruption. Any of the others throughout the thread work fine.

The .rar is broken for me.

Blame Photobucket and browser "synergy". Some browsers request image to save instead of saving already downloaded copy, and then stupid Photobucket gives you a HTML file instead of the real data. Just like when you do a "view image", you get a full page, not the image only.

Argh... and doing Save page does the same, a bunch of .html. OK, trying something else. Anybody with good hosting?

The .rar has been removed, 404.

OK, so uploaded here. In case authors complain, mods can edit to get rid of the zip.

I've done up a quick but fun "Necromancer Beer - one taste will revive you" ad, inspired by a throwaway comment by someone on our local BB league's Facebork group.

Available here - http://www.warbard.ca/2015/06/06/necrom ... deline-ad/

and I've attached it here, assuming this works:

Enjoy!

Working on some new sideline ads. Some of them are my re-creations of other people's ideas; some of them are more original (I think).

I'll get high res versions up on my blog sometime soon, but here's a quick thumbnail image of four of my current pieces.

If you can do a 'lucky strike' with 'mighty blow', that would be awesome. :smoking:
