Re: Advice on making stickers for dice

If you can get the blue to match that looks good. That's fairly easy with a decent graphics programme, even a freebie like paint.net. Use the colour sample tool to read the dice colour in the photo and set that as the background colour for the spots and star. It may not match 100%, but it should be...

Re: Advice on making stickers for dice

The design wouldn't be a problem and the transfers would just need to be sized to fit onto the flat space on the dice. Super easy...barely an inconvenience :D True, Paul. So what you'd want is something like this: T_Irish_Guards.png The blue background would be measured from the die face photo and ...

Lovely work, GM. But the driver, mate- he's looking a little sickly.

Re: Von Imhoff Brunswick infantry regiment

Re: Advice on making stickers for dice

There's one thing to consider about using decals too, mate. You'll need to put two thin coats of a really tough poly varnish over the dice or the decals will rub off in a couple of hours. As for the printing, that's a piece of urine. What Paul so eloquently described, with a couple of minor addition...
