				<title>Transferring images/patterns to models</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ My Land Raider is coming today, so I've been giving some thought to how to paint it up.  I intend to add some Norse gripping beasts, and knotwork to it.  I will need to trace the image onto the model prior to painting it on or it will be horrendous.  Without purchasing special transfer sheets, are there any other methods?  I know about making temporary tattoos with tracing paper and gel pens, I wonder if this will work.  Given the complexity of the images, cutting it out to use as a stencil is something I'd rather not do.  What have you all tried?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ You could try copying the original image using a <a href="http://drawsketch.about.com/od/drawinglessonsandtips/ss/griddrawing.htm" target="_new" rel="nofollow">Grid Drawing</a> technique. Might give you a little more control over what you're doing, since it essentially breaks the process down into smaller chunks.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ That might work too, if I can't find an easier way.  I've never seen a Land Raider in person, but it appears the surfaces would be plenty large enough to draw a grid on them.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ I'm not sure if this will help - it's using tracing paper with pencil applied, as you may already have tried, but the design is drawn on freehand, and painted after the image has been outlined. Anyway, i'll post the link here as it may be of some use in your image conundrum:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://fromthewarp.blogspot.co.uk/2009/05/land-raider-redeemer-freehand.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://fromthewarp.blogspot.co.<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(134);'>uk</span>/2009/05/land-raider-redeemer-freehand.html</a>]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Haha yeah. I saw this thread right after the first one you put up and thought 'I know just the thing' <img src="/s/i/a/baf5f2e54c6b17d5c5d39aecadfa1272.gif" border="0">. Good luck again <img src="/s/i/a/39ea8e0dbfb45dcc6b802cd0e198dba3.gif" border="0"><br /> <br /> EDIT: Oh, and feel free to add me as a friend - I don't mind answering questions if it helps <img src="/s/i/a/c944477abc92c1c101da485e07ff06d8.gif" border="0">]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ I heard temporary tattoo printer paper works really well and you can buy it at craft stores. Some even come with software to help make them. You use them sorta like decals.]]></description>

Print something reversed, flip it while it's still wet and rub the back. Some of the printer ink will transfer from one surface to the other. Obviously how successful it is will depend on the type of ink and paper you are using. I believe my inks are made by <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(661);'>HP</span>.]]></description>
