Dexter

Hey guys, hopefully this can be of some help. I seem to remember a conversation on here about how to make Dexter-like blood slides with a nice red that really pops and will stay bright for a long time.

Well, I think I have a solution. I made this yesterday as a practice run and yes, I know these are not the correct slide type. Instead of using any type of liquid, I made up a few different sized and shaped "blood samples" in Adobe Illustrator and then printed them on clear waterslide decals.

It really pops on a neutral or light background. It loses a bit of the brightnesses when simply held up. The ink creates a great cellular effect though.

Let me know what you think.

Anyone make any progress on the 4 walls flyer??
I just finished it last night. LOL I still have to track down some yellow paper to check the colors to make sure they don't need any further tweaking. It came out PERFECT! I can't wait for you guys to see it. Here's a little teaser for you all.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the kind words. You guys will be happy to hear that I scored some yellow paper that appears to be the right color to me. I'll be doing a couple of print tests in the next couple of days and making any adjustments it may need. I'll be making it available to everyone here on the RPF very soon. Stay tuned kiddies.
 
All I gotta say is WOW, "thedexterguy" on eBay is a ****** bag! He will not sell a single thing to anyone from the rpf. Lol.

It's everyone's favorite "TheTronGuy"! He just changed his name to "TheDexterGuy". LMAO Now he even wants to stick it to people he has never even had any interaction with. :lol A lot of the more recent members of the RPF weren't even members back when he rubbed some of the older members the wrong way trying to sell his dolls for ridiculously jacked up prices. Apparently he didn't make any friends here and has decided to stick it to everyone here on the RPF out of spite. :lol Bad business if you ask me. You're probably better off anyway.
 
I have officially finished the "Four Walls Flyer"!!!
:love I am very happy with how it turned out. :love
I have what I believe to be the right color paper as well. Now for the big question.

Should I ?
A) Offer the file via email so you can print it yourself.
B) Do a small run of these charging for shipping and ink only.
or C) Insert idea here.

PM me your email address if you'd like this file emailed to you.

I got the paper from work and have no idea where they bought it. I'd just take a couple of good screen caps (page 11 post 268) with you to Office Max or a Kinkos and try to match it the best you can.
