Default Local Disc Dyers??

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??

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

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

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

I got sick, but I didn't dye.

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.

Default Mushroom

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

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.

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!

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

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.

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
