I discovered a guy in the Bowen section of statueforum.com who does custom chroming. He does commissions, so I figured I'd send a Silver Surfer his way and get it chromed.
So I just scored a Silver Surfer to do this job. However, the paint apps are going to get covered with chrome.
I was wondering: can anybody make me a mockup/template that I could use for re-painting the face?
You know how they make stencils with designs on them? Kinda like a jack-o-lantern stencil. (BTW: read my post about Mugg-O-Lanterns in the Roundup Section.) Needless to say, I was hoping someone could make a mugg-sized silver surfer stencil that I could send to the chromers, so that they can spray on the face. I think that's all you really need to preserve the look and feel of a Mighty Mugg that has been chromed.
What do you guys think? Anybody willing to put something together with the Surfer's detail, along with a detailed grid of what should be what color.
I know it's kinda confusing to explain. I just hope somebody can help me. Thanks guys!

Okay....this is what they asked of me:
Michael,
If you can make an eps file the same size or larger than what is on the piece, we can cut a stencil and airbrush the design on. Let me know if you can do that.
Thanks, Kristin
Anybody up for producing a template? If the final product looks good, I'm sure the template could help other folks, too!

Does anybody have a scanner that they could scan in a high-quality image of the Surfer Mighty Mugg box from the front and side profile? I figure I'll piece it together and make the stencil from that. Thanks in advance gang!
