Hey guys I've got a Vamp coming in soon from Ebay that I want to make into something. Maybe a Night Ops version, I don't know... What I'm wondering is if there's an easy way to print out stickers to put on it after I've repainted? This is going to be my first custom, so I'm pretty clueless, I've started doing a couple of Joes, but this will be my first vehicle. thanks!

the cheap version is to use avery shipping label paper. more complicated are the various waterslide options. for the most part you can find copies of many vehicle sticker sheets online. you can then edit and scale them as needed to print for your use.
see my gallery all the tiger force stickers are printed on avery shipping labels.

yeah, I'll definitely post some pics, thanks for the advice on the avery shipping label paper, I take it the paper is clear? You know what I mean, so that there's not a white background behind the sticker.

they make both white and clear label paper. i typically use white as the ink doesn't print as vivid on clear. if you trim the stickers very carefully with an xacto knife, you can avoid seeing white trim

I gotcha, I just didn't think I'd be able xacto-out some of the smaller stickers. Your regular old computer printer does ok?

for the most part yes. set the quality level as high as practical. the paper will limit the quality as well. avery doesn't make photo quality labels that i know of.
