Red Eye Decals?
Hi everyone!
I'm curious to see if it'd be possible to recreate Red Eye decals. Does anyone have a Red Eye with really good decals they'd be willing to take copious numbers of pictures of? They'd need to be as straight-on as possible, or from two angles so I could average the difference. I should be able to recreate them in Illustrator and then print them on waterslide paper.
Anyways, I think it might be a fun project.
Please let me know if you're interested!

Dan, I'll shoot you a PM--those decals look like they're absolutely perfect for this! And I'm glad folks are interested; I plan to recreate them in Illustrator (to get those nice, clean, vector lines) and then experiment with waterslide paper until I'm happy with the results. I'll keep everyone posted!
