    This is a repository of all the torso decals that I design to make custom Kreons. Feel free to use them as you wish. There are some photos posted below of examples of these used on custom Kreons.

    My first attempt at creating chest decals for custom Kreons, and I feel that my first attempt is so not that good. Hopefully I will improve

    These are just the three (3) I chose to start with no real reasoning behind it.

    If anyone does choose to use these, they are not sized to fit. They are larger to make it easier to work with and need to be shrunken.

    The FOC Combaticons. Not the best but I needed something to work on while my nephew was over. No Bruticus because it would be too similar to Onslaught. If someone would be willing to clean these up a bit please do would love to see it

    the top of the line is, of course, Adobe Illustrator but that comes w/ the $$ you would expect from the "industry standard". It's what I was trained with back in the day and it does have a steep learning curve.

    The open source program that a lot of folks use is InkScape, I haven't looked at it in several years but it's probably the go-to program for those interested in doing vector stuff but not interested in Adobe.

    For all my vector stuff I use Flash (CS5) because I find the drawing tools to be much more intuitive. It uses the same drawing engine as Freehand (now discontinued, thanks Adobe.. :mad ) but you might be able to hunt down a copy of that somewhere.. they list it on the Adobe site and still want $400 for it... screw that!

    well I honestly gave it my best shot at adding vectors to them. But I couldn't make it look good,bit outside my skillset for now. So I will stick with what I know for the time being

    and now something cool from antapp, who used one of my decals in his customs http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/756345-custom-kreons-new-batch.html

    and something interesting, these stickers were made for larger bots...quite large soI suggest grabbing WuLongTi's(I want a drink after saying that) Bruiser set http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-fan-art/688901-kreon-upgrade-kit-shapeways-14.html (of course they still work just fine on regular kreons)
    Primus and Unicron

    I tried to get these resized, but the size antapp sent me wasn't changed. so the problem is either on my end or the wrong file was sent. So it is still slightly DIY

    that said, this was the first one I actually thought up. Omega supreme G1, Energon, and Energon Headmaster

    hey look, this thing exists. Just a couple new ones, as always these need to be shrunk down to fit on kreons

    Posted a request in the Kre-O Facebook group to see if someone out there is willing to redraw these in a vector program. Update if available.
