Kickstarters to Check Out


Tonight Im sitting back and relaxing... which means one thing, doing some reading and trying to get caught up on email. There are a couple kickstarters that I wanted to point out, one that deals with custom bases, and the other custom made to order decals.

There are always kickstarters starting up, and on occasion I miss a few that I meant to talk about (especially the last month or so while I have been trying sell a house). Check these two out.....


Fallout Hobbies
So here is the first, of which, I am considering some Faeit 212 decals in my near future. Very cool.

Fallout hobbies makes custom waterslide decals easy to order for Sci-Fi and Tabletop Wargame model enthusiasts.

Custom Decals are as simple as 1,2,3!

No minimum orders
Flat rate fees
Print single sheets in white toner!
Print in black and full color toner.
Customer control over the final product
High-resolution printing quality
For the longest time getting custom waterslide decals for your own personal hobby projects was a tedious, confusing chore. Designing the artwork, making sure the colors were accurate, pricing decal printing by colors, minimum orders of sheets, etc. Fallout Hobbies makes these hassles a thing of the past!

Getting custom one-off decal designs manufactured in white toner is quickly becoming impossible since the cessation of ALPS printer ink and tech support in May of 2015. Now there are only 2 types of laser printers in the world that can print one-off single sheets of decals in white toner and Fallout Hobbies intends to acquire one of those models.



Dragon Forge
