Robin's Homing Transmitter WIP

Post by Chuck Williams »

Here's one I've wanted since I was 5!

I finally put together the Boy Wonders Homing Transmitter!!!
Once I find the right sized rivet to attach the dial it will get finished up with the correct graphics...

Sorry, Chuck, but you’ve made an error: as the photo Scott posted clearly shows, the knob is off center on the original. Just like your other items …a bit too good.

It’s a sad, sad day for crime fighters in Gotham.😞

Probably a little bit of both!

When something is only seen as a fleeting glimpse, you can get away with so much !

It would drive me nuts...
Like this manhole cover I photographed.... Why.... Just.. Why....
It's a madhouse!!!!

I have to say, Scott wins this one!!!

I know that these are mathematically centered.
Due to the thickness of the dial , the shallow brass hole and ANY movement of the camera or buckle and it photographs off center...
Another mystery solved!!!

A quick test of the colors and estimating font size... I'm going with the original look of the cerise card stock for the graphics.

Okay. Concede. I see it.

The card stock color looks about as right as one could get.
