Having trouble finding the design I see in my head.

[EdensDaddy]

I am ready to order... But, I don't have any idea how to find a graphic map for my idea. I am hoping some of you geniuses can succeed where I have failed. I want my Big Chuck to look like a light saber. Preferably Vaders. I know it is small for that but I still want that design. I have been up ALL night searching for an image that could be used for a wrap for this but alas... Might have to settle for a pack of rolos =(

Also looking at many of the work Jeff has already completed I noticed some of the line detail looks raised and some is simply a wrap... how is this difference selected when ordering? Or can it be?

Thank you!

I have that trouble with a lot of things, finding what I visualize in my brain. Designs, paint colors, how life should be.........

Post a few pictures, explain what you are after and someone with some photoshop and google skills will surely come to your aid.

That's how my gunsmoke chuck was created. It was a fun, amazing process.

The raised thing is just a small image that isn't a full wrap which gives it that look, I think. Someone will surely correct me if I am wrong about that.

Strange, I was looking for the exact same thing the last couple of nights although not specifically Vader's just any.

I tried searching for 3DS MAX files which could in theory be used to unwrap the texture which then would be a flat image but probably not high enough resolution.

I'll keep looking to see if I can find something.

I think Bing is better for images than Google. See if you find anything you like here

The raised looking stuff are "stickers" like on my Padres Chuck.
Compare with my Chargers Chuck, which is a full wrap.

I am referring more or less to Chucks like Crash's LIVESTRONG... ones with text they don't seem to have cut edges. I have a feeling I may end up being a collector. I was thinking about giving one to my father, who has been smoking for 45 years, that has a quote saying
"He didn't tell me how to live; He lived, and let me watch him do it." He bought an expensive e cig from a kiosk and tried it for a few days, gave up because of the weak vapor, and hasn't pursued it since even though I have told him there are much better PVs out there.

They took the photos down, but Houdini is still around. If I recall, his picture was great:
