Got my Turbo Tracks in the mail yesterday from Soundblaster1 (thanks!). I had one originally but attempted to reshell him and messed up beyond reasonable repair. This one I'm not attempting to reshell, just wanted the labels to look more G1. I wiped off his flame paint this morning with acetone and used some color laser-printed flames and autobots signs to finish him off. (decoupaged). Just needed a little black touchup on his hood grille where I couldn't get all the flame paint off and he's good to go. I got the hood flames/symbol from a poor image online, then photoshopped it up to look like the original. Also just gave him a license plate: "6E RO BOT" I might redo this one later. Originally it was supposed to be for my Arcee custom.
I printed them on regular paper, then used a decoupage technique to affix them to Tracks. (trim the paper, use some watered-down Elmer's glue to stick, then seal with clear Future floor polish)
LOL @ Plate. And drat... I was hoping that this meant Reprolables had a G1 version of his sticker, not their own styled flames. >_> Still cool tho. Interesting stickering technique. Gotta try it sometime.
Cool! I did pick up the reprolabel set they are close enough for me I like the top autobot emblem with the yellow background looks cool!
Updated the photos to appear less red (via paint.net). I forget where I read about decoupage but I've used the technique over and over on Transformers and GI Joe vehicles and it's always worked great. Even works on curved surfaces because while the paper is wet w/ the watered down glue you can press it into cracks and such.
