Quoted from psd4me:I have a good playfield I'm going to be swapping I could get a scan if you still need it. The field is completely stripped down at the moment. Mike
i did get a scan but if it is not too much trouble having another one would be a great back up if for some reason the other one is not useable. i would really appreciate it! thanks a lot!!! sounds like your LAH will be a beauty once you are done with it!
a friend of mine has lah too and between the 2 of us we think we should be able to pull this project off. a scan, some color matching, some vectoring, some specialized printing and some trial and error.
just need to know if we have it printed directly to mylar? any ideas?
Quoted from psd4me:I'll make scan this weekend. Mike
my friend said that the scan we have is actually good so dont worry about it. thanks a lot though!
Quoted from MustangPaul:For that I'd take it to a sign shop and have it professionally done. They use better material and ink. Something that size shouldn't cost that much.
yes for sure. that is the plan!
Quoted from toyotaboy:Is that the scan I sent you or someone else's? I think the only proper way to do it is clean up the art and only print the black section and paint gold with flakes in it over the area first.
no my friend took a higher res pic with his camera that he tidied up in photoshop i believe.
there are some metallic color options my printer has that we will try. you are talking about hand painting in all the gold flake?

Before I order, who else needs one? It's 10 euros ($13) to ship even a single label. If we do a group buy, we can make shipping from germany negligible (I can mail stickers for about a dollar I'm sure).
price says 18.90 euro? how do you get to 23? im confused on what the cost would be if i wanted in on the group buy?
and how the heck is anything that light and thin $13 to ship. i can prob ship the same thing to germany for a dollar! 
ours is shaping up to be pretty sweet. completely redrawn vector art and blinged out metallic gold ticket color (better than the bland dull original color)
just got the new ticket in last night!!!!!! my friend spent countless hours completely redrawing the art in adobe illustrator. the detail is so clear and amazing compared to the original which is muddy. he also added in the red highlights from the original art rather then all black. it just looks fantastic!
the art is printed on a metallic gold vinyl which if you compare to the original has more brightness, sparkle and pop! then a mylar finish was applied to the top layer. i haven't stuck mine on yet but i cant wait. i will later tonight i hope. it is MUCH better than the original. great to cover up my ticket wear and also for preventative maintenance.
i was originally stuck on the idea that creating an exact replica was the way to go but once we got going we realized that we could improve upon the original! i just love this thing. i added some photos. take a look. let me know your thoughts! better than the one from pinball center in germany in my opinion!

Quoted from dnaman:Matt, Yes this should not be a problem at all. I have one from our second trial run, Mike has this one installed (just prior to the final batch run) and there are no issues with removal. It's essentially a vinyl decal with two laminate/film layers on top.
If you had areas of unfinished wood, wood filler or the like then you might want to seal it first but otherwise you should be good to go. In fact it is recommended to ensure that the area below is filled/repaired so that it doesn't ruin the overlay.
One last suggestion. When trying to apply the overlay you may want to use scissors to trim some of the white paper backing away so that you can see where you will line it up on the playfield. I would even go as far as to remove some or all of the backing and using parchment or wax paper beneath the overlay so that you can align it properly to the PF art. Then slowly pull the parchment paper away while rubbing the overlay down onto the playfield until complete. I would not want to have anyone have to try to pull it up to re-position it.
Remember: "A properly laid overlay is a happy overlay"...
We hope that you like them!
or you can just slap it on and pull it up 3 times before you get it into position like i did 
it was very user friendly for me when i wanted to adjust it a couple times. i had just applied maybe a 1/4 or 1/5 of the ticket before pulling it back off and trying again
Quoted from hobbypin:I've got mine ordered! Who else is ordering one of these?
there are 3 pinsiders paid up and 2 pending i believe. also atomicboy has one coming his way

Hey Guys. Very sorry for the delay. This thread was on my page 2 and I never look that far down.
I have had some interest lately so if there is enough interest to do a run of 10 then I will run it again. Price would be $30 + $2 shipping. (smaller run, cost is higher)
Send me your info and I'll make a list and when I have 10 orders I will let everyone know in this thread. Thanks, Mike
Edit: Forgot to mention that price is in USD

Quoted from Bendit:Awesome work on the sticker, btw.
Could you describe the process that's needed to create something like that? Materials? Printing technique?
The end result is really cool.
This should help The original post.

Quoted from Bendit:Thanks! I had read that.
I mean more detail on the printing technology. Materials, printing appliance etc.
Know what I mean? Thanks!
I think so but you would have to call the printing company to get those answers as I do not have them sorry.
