VonMerrick Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Ok, I am toying with the idea of Harald Deathwolf's great company as the new fluff fits in with my tastes and I want my wolves a little more unique. However I have zero knowledge of custom decals. I have the file from B & C for Harald's Great Company, and I have clear transfer paper, so I have the materials. However the sun the deathwolf is consuming will show up clear on my shoulder pad using this design and will not really stand out on the dark red background. Is there a way to edit the interior of the sun and its rays to match the yellow in the codex? I'm sure this is probably really simple, but as said I have very limited photo editing skills and haven't work much with transfers in the past as I usually used the older metal raised shoulder pads.

lunchb0x Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 very very easy. if you want the yellow to pop more, do a white base where the sun is supposed to be, then apply the decal and come back through and clean it up with the base colour of red. Or...get a better printer. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/181131-editing-great-company-decals/#findComment-2144745 Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Scotcho Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Umm, hate to sound like a tard, but can I get a link to these transfers, because that's the wolf lord I was planning on trying out too, and I don't wanna sculpt 100+ shoulder pads.

VonMerrick Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 I know I could paint in the yellow after the fact, but what I really wanted was quick way to have the yellow printed on the decal when it prints up so the star is yellow when I place the decal on the shoulder pad.

lunchb0x Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 See the bit i said about printer. If you have a kinkos near bye, ask them if they have a printer that prints white, if so bring in your paper and your design and have them print it out for you....first with a white base, then again with the color...you/they will need to make 2 separate images. one solid white, then the coloured one to go over it.

VonMerrick Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 Please excuse me for not getting this and sounding really stupid, but why can't I just edit the image in a program like paint to fill in the rays of the sun with yellow and then print that image on my ink jet? This would give me a clear decal, a yellow star and a black wolf. The template in the download section is perfect except I didn't want a clear, black-outlined sun. Please go over why I would need to superimpose the image from the downloads section over a white version. I'm really not understanding and I apologize in advance for not being able to follow. I'm also curious as to why every time I try to edit the decal download the color just fills in a dark grey.
