Asian shirt linings from PVC stickers
« on: February 13, 2014, 01:18:55 »
I'm sure they will look better, printed by Geobra or printed by Cowabounga...but for me, these are temporary until Geobra makes them as Fi?ures some day ;D
...yet sending another prayer to cyber space hoping Geobra's R&D people will see this BUT I've to send 2 more prayers...1) that western movie makers popularise some Asian (fantasy) armies and 2) that western kids will like them....thats a lot of prayers....so I will go on....alone :'(
..oh...perhaps they'll make slimmer Judoka Fi?ures  :lol:

Very nice Cheng! I tried out the insulation tape (PVC stickers?) and they worked out really well for my Zhuge Liang too! Have been wrecking my brain about that but how easy these stickers are to work with!

youre most welcome arnaud-cowabounga!

yes, Larry, I've been showing how to use pvc stickers/tapes since my playmoboard(a previous English forum, very popular with military collectors) and wargaming forum days...I'm sure you can find brown pvc insulation tapes in Singapore...maybe even gold ones  ;)

Tahra, keep those parts coming ;)

and thanks Playmofire!  :)

Lovely customs, cheng and a clever use of materials.

I just bought these sticky tapes thanks to reading this thread.  Honestly I never thought of these PVC strips before and I've passed them by so many times in the art store.
