hi mate what issue is that and do you want to sell it :daumenhoch:
-
Its issue 3. The shot was taken at Harrow skate pool I was told. Mine has still got the sticker on it. I'll try and dig it out for you.
It was re done in the 90s, maybe by backyard, cant remember. I think I have got one of the new ones too somewhere.

i can,t believe you did'nt use that sticker b.i.t.d.

Something happened to my BMXAs, and I ended up having to get new copies. I think they got damaged or lost, cant really remember but I ordered back issues of the first 10 or so (this was still wayyyy in the early 80s). When they came through they were all in perfect condition and I thought it would be best to leave the sticker on. I had a big clear out a few years ago but kept issues 1 to 50 (it started to change to RAD skate mag about then), and the early issues are still in great condition.
-
spesh,if del can do the stickers give us a shout,i'd like 1 or 2 of them

Would look good on a t-shirt too. Any chance of a hi-res scan so I can have a go at re-drawing it in Illustrator? I thought I had issue 3 but can't find it. :(
Cheers

I just got asked if I can scan the Ripper test from this mag so I will bring it into work where I have a scanner, and not just a camera phone. Once its here I will get a better scan of the sticker.

That's what I was thinking for some t-shirts. ;)
Maybe something along these lines?

I wear that shirt at least twice a week and it's not faded or shrunk in anyway. I'll see what I can do if anyone's interested?

del says he can do the sticker he just needs a decent pic or scan,pm him if you have any
-
Ive got the mag in my bag, ready to take to work tomorrow.
So if del can do this sticker .... can he repro other stickers from a scan? ... Maybe frame decals????

yeah backyard did do a copy of this,i wiil have a dig about may still have one somwhere ,if del needs it.will let you know tommorrow maybe.
a t-shisrt would be very welcome. :daumenhoch:

I found the Backyard version of the sticker last night. Its is just the same, apart from the text at the bottom. I thought it would be better to do the high Rez scan of the backyard one cos it doesnt have a bit of 25 year old tape across it!
Here is a smaller version. If you want the BIG ONE then PM me and I'll email it to you. The big file is 490kb

-
nice T. deffo interested.
-
How big do these decals need to be?
-

dunno 3" x 3" ?
anyone else know?
-
That'll be too small for this decal as some parts of it when cut will be too small. I'll do a sample and get it as small as I can and post pics up when I've done it, probably this evening.
-
How do you make a sticker like this up Del? I have done some before using self adhesive photo paper and then covering it with Fablon. Its ok but doesn't stand up to getting wet unless you cut the fablon larger.
Do you make them out of vinyl and then stick them together ?
Does anyone know where the original picture came from, I thought it was from the Haro book but it isn't ?
-
All my decals are made from cut vinyl. I'd make one like this by 2 layers.
-
It would be nice to be able to do it but the equipment must cost a few quid. Do you stick the 2 layers together, cut the shapes and then remove the bits you don't want, or do the 2 seperate and then stick them together. I can see that it would be a tad tricky to reall small stuff, would take hours.
Just interested how its done.

I have to cut individual colours then layer them. I mught throw together a "how to" one day and you'll see how its done
-
Thanks for that. I was thinking of getting some made but didn't want to plan something only to find out it can't be done.
Be nice to know how proper printed ones as well, and as for foil ones, who knows. I did notice thet you can get printable foil from WH Smiths its not sticky though, perhaps it could be used for 1 offs if you stuck it on with thin double sided tape.
