• Mousin Around insert decals ?

    From Benoit PETIT-DEMOULIERE@benetnath@gmail.com to rec.games.pinball on Wednesday, April 15, 2020 10:29:16
    From Newsgroup: rec.games.pinball

    Hello,

    I've got a Mousin around and a badly damaged mylar was on it.
    I've removed it with a good succes but some black texts were already attached to the mylar.
    I'm therefore looking for a complete set of declas for insert.
    Does anyone have a good source for that ?
    Otherwise, any tips for thinkerer ? I've seen that printing with waterslide transfer if doable. I've got a Canon laserprint (LBP1120) but I'm not sure it's a good way to perform.To be complete, I'm located in France.

    Thanks a lot,
    Ben

    Hi Ben,

    There are a few places offering insert decals that might have Mousin...

    As for waterslides, I wasn't happy with the results using my office
    laser printer. However that may have been any number of factors
    including being a neophyte!

    Keep us posted!

    I do decals all the time, but use inkjet, then have to seal it prior to applying. Laser is supposed to work great, although colors are not as vibrant.

    If you get decal paper, get the clear stuff for inserts. If repairing
    parts of the playfield, usually white is called for.

    Decal paper for inkjet and laser are different, so be sure to get laser
    decal paper.

    This might help.

    Thanks all,
    I'd need a good source to make them properly on a printer.
    The only picture I've seen is from an old pinside ad.
    And did not find a set in any known shopping website.

    If you get desperate, try matching the font and size, then make them
    yourself on Photoshop or GIMP.

    That works only if you are replacing them all. Trying to match so well
    that a side-by-side comparison looks good, rarely works.

    You can even pull them off IPDB, import to Photoshop or GIMP and use
    that as a template. The import will look terrible, but as a template,
    it is possible to match in a different layer what it should look like,
    then hide the original.

    Given how much time most of us have at the moment, it would be something
    to do. :-|

    GIMP, is a free download.

    I have pulled highly pixelated photos of slingshots and recreated the
    artwork that way. Online tutorials of the software helps get a head start.
