Octan's Decals Empty Octan's Decals

Post by Octan 6/19/2011, 10:03 pm

I am starting to make Vector Decals for Minifigs (Possibly) to sell on Bricklink, and I need your advice on these...
Octan's Decals Torso-10
Here is the first one, I still need to clean up the painting and line structure... The watermark is there so this does not get stollen...

• Do you like the colors? ( They are all official LEGO® colors)
• Do you like the design?
• Should I add Camo?

Thanks,
Octan

Generic infantry decal... What would you like to see to make it less simple? Textures, Camo, ETC....

Texture:
I am going for a 'LEGO' style here, with not many textures... Here is what I have:
Octan's Decals Screen13
Lines:
These are the same size LEGO uses...
Muscles:
I will try for them in V3...

Selling decals isn't a business I'd personally get into. Just my suggestion.

JCC is right Octan, Its not an easy business. There are so many free decal library's out there that people would have to be crazy to buy them.

I probably won't, I was just throwing the idea out to see how it was received. Classic Smile

Adobe Illustrator (I think it is 150 Euro, cheap for a vector program), and I will work on Camo. Classic Smile
