Oh god! You draw the cross more or less like this:



Once the decal is in place it will stick even if you leave some of the marker under it, just wipe off the excess.

it also helps to take all the strings off first...

But surely that's difficult if you've drawn a cross over them..?

hah hah!

I ordered JE roman numerals in MoP for my black Warwick yesterday! They should look ace. The guy does custom orders, I asked if he could do the JE numerals and he said no problem, $22.

So I have those coming, and a tree of life for my acoustic bass.

So far so very good, he's a great communicator, and very accommodating. I'll post pics and a review of the process and appearance when I've done them.

Excellent. Especially looking forward to seeing how the tree of life turns out.

Not a bad job, One never knows they are decals as it does look like the real thing. Well done.
