Umm...I was serious guys. Can anyone do that for me? I would really appreciate it...

 

Yellow for Ark/Autobot locales, Purple for Nemesis/Decepticon locales. Should there also be a silver for the neutral Cybertron landscapes?

 

Take the file to Kinko's. That way, you can choose the stock, get multiples for extra shelves and not worry about damage in-transit. I don't have a printer, so this is what I'm planning to do.

 

Dude...I live , basically in a swampy , nowheres ville, shithole currently (Louisiana. I am moveing to New Mexico Saturday). There are no "Kinkos" here in my homeland. There are no McDonalds. There are no Mall's. There are no TRU's. We only have the Dairy Queen.  .....see my dilemma?

Oh and I doubt the cows can make me some copies...

 

No.

 

Cant do it man. Im a "computer idiot". Always have been. I cant even cutt & paste right. Appreciate your efforts however. Trust me man, if I could do it myself for free, I would.

 

Awesome! I'm so lining the backs of my shelves with the "non descript" texture sheets. The only decision is rather to use the orange/Autobot ones or purple/Decepticon sheets.... hmmmm decisions decisions

Great job and thanks BTW mandingo_rex

 

Oh damn. Ive wanted something like this since I was little. I may have to display this with my G2 toys just for old times sake, and another with Classics/Alts/BTs for some newstyle awesome.

 

Thanks guys, I'm trying to keep track of all the posts on all the different sites.

Things have been 100% positive!

I'm asking one thing in return, can you guys please post pics once your display is done?

I have yet to assemble a full-scale one for display, and I know people are curious to see it with figures in-scale.

Thanks,
MR

 

Would I have to scale them down to fit with G1 and Classics?

 

i don't have the ink for multiples....but i might print out one ark and one nemisis panels for my comics

 

Is there a cost idea of how much getting this printed out at Kinkos would cost?

 

Cant wait to see some of yall displays

 

Some pictures of my recently completed Teletraan / Ark not happy with my construction.

 

That looks sawesome dude.

Again, can any one do one Ark/one Nemisis for me on some good stock? I would gladly pay...

HELP!

 

Yea, I gotta get access to a higher quality color printer, the one at work sux

Looks good and I'm so jealous of Alpha Trion BTW

 

That's really nice, but I think your Teletraan is a little too small for Classics as it is. If you printed those in regular size paper, I'm assuming you had to shrink down the images, and I'm wondering by how much. Right now I'm doing my own model for the SCF/HoC line, and I'm printing the images at 34% of the original size. Looks OK so far, I'll put up some pics as soon as it's done.

 

One thing I've noticed on a lot of people's backgrounds, is that they're printing them out a tad big. What I'd suggest is doubling up 2 Ark plates (thus scaling them down from 11x17 to 8.5x11 and printing 2 side by side) so that they get a scale of Ark background plates that matches better to the Teletraan-I unit.

Teletraan IS a whole lot more detailed, and I'm thinking about going back and redoing the Ark plates so they're more detailed to match. Scaling them down and doubling up should do the trick though.

I've noticed on some of the Chinese sites that I've been tracking (this thing has spread like wild fire, haha) that the guys are printing them out way too big and when they do that, the crappy Photoshop lines show up worse. They look better printed at a finer scale, where it then appears more detailed.

Good job though TB on your display. The only thing I'd suggest to others is perhaps trying to match the scale of the detail a tad closer when you print so that the 2 pieces look like they go together better, although I think TB's done a good job at not scaling UP the Ark backgrounds. Others I've seen have gone a tad big and it starts looking bad at that scale.

Part of it's my fault, since they were essentially 2 different projects where the second one I spent a lot more time on and did a better job, and then it didn't match the first version. Hope everyone posts pics, I'm not going to SDCC, but I have friends going and they're on the lookout to see displays there!

 

As soon as my printer at work get fixed I am going to print this out on some 100 lbs matte paper.

I noticed that you teletraan-1 sides are 20" tall, what size was this meant to fit?
Would reducing by 50% be too much for classics?

 

Well, I just got back from Kinko's. I scaled down the Teletraan to about 9 inches for the universe line. A little small but I didn't want it to be to big either. 8 1/2 by 11 sheets for it. For the background plates I left them the size they were 11 by 17. I printed all ten sheets (5 ark/ 5 background). The total was 11.85 without the tax. The quality was really good.
Thanks Mandingo Rex, you did a great job on these.
