Local Disc Dyers??

[Mikk]

I have a clear sparkle Rogue that I'd like to have a red mushroom with white dots as a dye job. I dont have any particular art design in mind other than a mushroom with dots. Kinda like the amanita muscaria- we Alaskans call it "Lady Death". Red with white spots or yellow with green spots.
Any local disc dyers help me out??

[Trozzle!!!]

You cant do red and white, so green and yellow would be your best bet.

[Scott]

You could do red and white if you start with a white disc.

[Ol' Bob]

I've done the red ones with the white dots. They can make you really sick.

I got sick, but I didn't dye.

[Trozzle!!!]

you can always do a white disc and dye red onto it and keep the white areas. But, if you want to keep the clearness of the disc, you wont be able to do a white dye.

[Mikk]

ok so green with yellow spots it is. anybody local want the job??

[TREX]

I have done several discs for guys in your area. There is a great selection of dyers here to do the dye you want, it's all in who you can get the disc to. I am outside of Shelton/Oly area. The last disc I did was out of state so if you want to mail it that is an option. The dye you want is a simpler one so it wont cost you much since you are supplying the disc. And the red and white you want is NP. Just outline the white circles with a black to draw out the dots on the shroom.

Msg me if you want it done :)

[TYVEK]

i would say stick with red with white spots if thats what you are really wanting. while you cant actually dye a disc white (that i know of) you can make it look like it. to do this you would dye the rest of the disc(other than the shroom) with another design or just another light color. by doing that the clear spots will look more white because the rest of the disc is colored.

i think that would be a better way to go unless you are looking for some wild pysecidelic looking mushroom thing.

I know TREX could do a good job on a dye like this.

thats the last thing somebody would want, a greenbay packers mushroom!!!???:slapface:

[GettinBetter]

Just do red and clear.

[Mikk]

Just do red and clear.
I like the idea!! I'm gona have TREX do the work with his artistic flair. I've seen some already and believe I'm gona love it.

[Mikk]

hahahahahaaaaaahahhaahha!! I didn't think of that!!

[ChUcK]

TREX has the right idea, outlining the spots with black will really make them stand out, especially against the red of the cap. I bet he'll do a great job with the dye. Plus, he has HUGE hands!

[Ol' Bob]

Plus, he has HUGE hands!

Yeah, I noticed that too.

[TREX]

Plus, he has HUGE hands!


I'm gonna stop taking pics of my dyes while holding the disc:yay:

This kinda dye is right up my alley. And like chuck said the colors should work out fine if I outline the dots. I will post it up after it's done.

[mazza]

hey trex think u can do this on a glow nuke for me

[TREX]

I think you might want to ask chuck or trozzle on that one. I have done a couple leaf discs that came out very nice but that graphic has a lot of artistic work to be done on it. I could do a more basic design like it but could not match the level of artwork on it. Here is one I did for a local player

[mazza]

aight i'll ask them....the disc is gonna go to one of my sponsors (the green room) and that dye would be great for them

That looks like a job for Eric (gettingbetter).

[mazza]

That looks like a job for Eric (gettingbetter).

didn't he move towards the east coast??

[Trozzle!!!]

I am down for the challenge, Mazza. Chuck is more towards your area, so he may be your best bet if you dont want to pay any shipping. I am more than game to go for it though. You got a link to a bigger pic?

[Trozzle!!!]

I am also wondering if you want the green parts in the pic to be the glow of the disc? The black would be easy to do, but the lettering would have to be another color

[mazza]

well i got no problem paying shipping.... yeah the green could be the glow part...the lettering could also be in glow...i would want the words "the" at the top...and "green room" at the bottom.....hell if u want shot me a price and well talk

[Trozzle!!!]

Dye is cheap. I wouldnt have you pay for that. Pay for shipping and its a done deal. If it turns out like you want, or better, I would gladly take a tip. I dye for fun, not for a profit. My biggest problem is time. It does take me longer than most to get the work done. If its a disc you throw alot and want it back in a couple days, I wouldnt be your guy.

Another question is if it is the Champion type glow disc? or the DX variety?

[mazza]

time is not a problem...its champion type plastic...i hope to get the nuke first then i hit up to find out where to send it

[Trozzle!!!]

I am down for it. do you have a better link to the pic? that one is really small. really blurry when i have to zoom in.

[ChUcK]

Chuck is more towards your area, so he may be your best bet

Yeah, but all I would do is teach Mazza how to catch a fish. See, I have this master plan wherein every golf disc on the planet is dyed. I quickly realized that I could never dye them all myself, but if I spend my time assimilating others to the Dye Army my plan has a chance at success.

As long as the population of disc dyers increases at a higher relative rate than the population of disc throwers, then success is nigh.

:chug:

Well said chuck. I have shown a few guys my process to no avail. I am thinking that if anyone in my area wanted to come by my place I would gladly do a few dyes while teaching them the process I use. I was also thinking that maybe I could share some of my graphics with other dyers. What I mean is since I use my computer to do all my graphic work I can offer my skills and create/fix/produce graphics for people that may need some help.
I have tried sharing back and forth with some others I know and they seem to want to hold onto their graphics like it's gold. I say the more graphics that are out there ready for dyes the more dyes we can get done between us all =]

hey could u see what u could do to clean up the pic i posted...i wasn't able too

[TREX]

sure np.. kinda busy next day or so but asap

[mazza]

sure np.. kinda busy next day or so but asap

no rush..its still a work in progress

[Trozzle!!!]

I dont get up to the Seattle area much. no car. But if there was to be some kind of disc dye convention, I would find a way up there :)

Each of us could show our methods and techniques and many could learn from us.

[Mikk]

My brother has a full size plotter and he's down to make designs, however he lives in Alaska so mail is a beach. I would love to take some classes and do my own work as i'm a good artist. Mabe after I move I can schedule a weekend trip with Mazza and head your way!! I'll buy the beer!! Mabe some Arrogent Bastard Ale is in order to drink and use as a dye pattern. This would go with my PBR dye on a star destroyer.

[ChUcK]

You should do the Ruination logo, Mikk. I haven't seen that one yet, nor the Levitation label...

...and both are very single-dip compatible images. :cheers: :chug: The levitation one seems like a bit of a trial to get cut out though.

[Mikk]

Yup thats the people that make Arrogent Bastard!! heres the pic..
I'd LOVE to get an ace with that logo, it so fits my personality!!!!!
Cuz well I'ma b......... and I know it.

[Mikk]

There was a Double Bastard beer at 1 time too...but I haven't seen it in a while... Bummer too cuz DAMN, drink that and your'e definately arrogant!! and it would make a super cool dye job!!

[Trozzle!!!]

I have done an Arrogant Bastard dye a long time ago. let me find the pic. It was actually one of my first dyes.
