Pictures below in the 2nd post are showing first protos only,
final versions will be printed on both sides in readable quality on special extremely thin paper for best accuracy.

I will make a limited run of the six different newspapers to choose from,
3 types, each as regular or jokerized version.

The price for one will be 10$, including worldwide shipping,
every additional of this types will be 8$.

Insured shipping option:

Had some things reported as lost on another project, so I recommend insured shipping,
as I will no longer carry the risk for regular shipments.

Postal tracking and insurance fee with signature at your side is 5$ worldwide
(only charged once if you order other custom items of mine).


Please lmk if you're intersted.



Update: Type '89 added!
(Proto pic in 2nd post below, more details about this type on page 5)

The price for one will be 15$, including worldwide shipping,
every additional of this types will be 13$.

Re: Custom 1/6 'Bat News...'

First proto pics: (final versions will be printed on different paper)

The story behind it:

I want to add a weathered The Gotham Times newspaper as accessory to my Custom Street Diorama Bases as shown on the first picture.

Saw some nice Bruce Wayne kitbashes with suitable newspapers, as well as Jokers with the jokerized version but I couldn't find them offered anywhere.
Found a picture set posted by a fellow boardy but wasn't too happy with it as the resolution was quite low so the printing result wasn't very good.

Now what I did is I transformed the embedded files of the original sources (thegothamtimes.com and the thehahahatimes.com),
removed the web links on the upper corners, searched for the original papers size and converted them to 1/6 at 600dpi.

Winged freak......terrorises....

Put me down. I regular plus a Jokerized would look great with a DX12 and DX11 respectively.

I'm interested in a regular one to go with my Bruce Wayne kitbash. :hi5:

jokerized for me please :)

Okay buddies, have you on the list. :hi5:

Will categorize the list with the versions to choose from a little later and your reservations will count for which ever you'll want then.
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'Bat News...'

Anyway you could also do generic ones? I've been wanting to make a newspaper boat for a Pennywise custom, but never get around to making it happen. I imagine this could work, but don't want it to say Gotham on the side when it's folded :lol

Shouldn't be too much of a problem, please pm me if you like.
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'Bat News...'

Cool! Like this a lot...
Put me down for two of the regular. (one to possibly roll up, one to keep pristine) :)

would you be able to combine this with a set of your Micro Mod 'Display & Scale' for DX12 & DX02 Sticky Bomb Gun?
Interested in a set of that one as well.

Thanks buddy, have you on both lists now! :hi5:

Yes, I plan to start offering them at the same time so that I can give discounts for combined shipping.

Nice idea to have one pristine and one rolled up!
Will probably make some example pics as soon as I have the first printed on the correct type of paper.

Hi Pirate, I would like one of each paper to go along with the sticky bomb custom that your doing. Everything looks great so far.
