ipmsusa2 Posted October 24, 2014 Report Posted October 24, 2014 (edited) One and all, For those who are interested, the decal ebook is making good progress. Already a little over 5,000 words. Just so you will know what will be in it, below is the current Table Of Contents. There may be some adjustments to it, but this is probably 90 - 95% of what you will see. Table Of Contents Prologue Introduction Chapter 1: Equipment Scanners Aftermarket Scanning Programs Computers Printers H-P Photosmart 8250 Epson Workforce 840 Epson XP-410 Ink Software Photoshop Open Office Draw Microsoft Paint Gimp Chapter 2: Decal Paper Testors Experts Choice Micro-Mark Papilio Chapter 3: Fixatives Chapter 4: Capturing The Image Chapter 5: Restoring Old Decals Chapter 6: Resizing Chapter 7: Creating A New Image Chapter 8: Printing The Decal Chapter 9: Sealing The Decal Chapter 10: Applying The Decal Chapter 11: Alternate Techniques Epilogue About The Author Price? As it stands now, either $3.99 or $4.99. Formats? mobi (for Kindle), epub (most other ereaders) & pdf (most ereaders, tablets, desktops and laptops) Availability? Hopefully by the end of December 2014, though it might be a few weeks later due to delays caused by a trade show model that I recently finished. Any and all comments while the ebook is being completed will be most welcome. Richard Edited November 5, 2014 by ipmsusa2
Gromit801 Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 Could be just in time for a project I have to get done by February.
ClareWentzel Posted November 9, 2014 Report Posted November 9, 2014 Let us know when and how to order it.
JMorgan Posted November 9, 2014 Report Posted November 9, 2014 Sounds interesting. Really excited to read this.
ipmsusa2 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Posted November 9, 2014 One and all, Appreciate your comments and interest. Target date is still end of December/early January. When it's ready, I will be providing a series of links that will make your purchase as easy as possible. At the present time, I'm researching another printer in order to provide as wide a spread of recommendations as I can. After the ebook becomes available...assuming y'all like it...I'd encourage you to post comments and reviews. Also, recommend the ebook to other modelers who might not be aware of its existence. Richard
VonL Posted November 13, 2014 Report Posted November 13, 2014 Are you still soliciting comments & discussion on content here? I use a couple of techniques that seem to work with the ALPS, but often sense that there's gotta be a more efficient way to do it.
ipmsusa2 Posted November 13, 2014 Author Report Posted November 13, 2014 Hey Bob, Sure. Send'em on. Note that the Alps printer will not be discussed in my ebook due to its lack of availability, nor will laser printers. It'll be interesting to see if your techniques will convert to inkjets in a more efficient way. Richard
