Doea anyone have Stock Replicas?
I have a Chaos 2 rep somewhere.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

here's an actual picture

If I wasn't so lazy I could actually skin the segments to look like the real flipper but that would involve a lot of work to find the map of the segment that I don't feel like doing right now.

That's awesome

Spirit of Knightmare.  I thought I had a grasp on how to do TGA's, but I couldn't get rid of the white pieces on the saw blades (They are That Darn Dustpan saws incidentally.)  I tried using the magic wand to make it transparent but then the whole texture disappeared.  Can anyone help?  I didn't have this problem with the special T-minus arm that Preytor gave to me in the form of PNG and I converted to TGA.  Anyways I'm showcasing this bot despite this insurmountable problem because the heck if I'm letting a day's worth of skinning go to waste.  But any help would be appreciated:

It's quite good, but to me, the armour is more black than purple, and the text looks white (or at least a very pale yellow) rather than dark yellow. Other than that though, I think it looks good.

Thanks for trying but it's still coming out blank.  Maybe it's a problem with my PNG; Prey when you did T-Minus' arm how did you get the texture to line up perfectly with all the pieces?

Thanks prey, it's working now!  Hooray!  If you don't mind divulging your trade secrets, how did you make that PNG, and with what program?

And GF, thanks for the suggestions; I think the "white" is just due to the lighting but I guess mine could do to be a tad brighter.  The reason the body was so light was because I needed it to contrast with the pure-black chasm that you see when the flipper is fired.  But I changed out the plum colour for the darkest shade of black that the human eye can distinguish from total-black and it looks pretty good.  I also noticed that the logo on the left side isn't a castle; I can't quite tell what it is but in the morning I'll try and see if I can get better pictures of it.

I use Paint.Net. For that specific one, I used the magic wand tool and set the Tolerance to 50%, set the Flood Mode to Global and selected the outline of the the disc, then simply just erased all of it. But I have to save it as a PNG or else it won't work.

Cool, that may be my problem- I used tolerance 25% and ifgnored flood mode.  When you say you erased "all of it", I assume you're talking about the white background, and not the disc itself?  If so, does it work to erase the white segments one piece at a time since they don't touch each other?

Yeah, just the white. What do you mean? If you press the eraser tool and select the  large enough you can get it so it erase's all of the white at the same time

Ar right, I sometimes forget that nifty feature; being able to erase all of just one colour in a field.  Incidentally can you set the colour you want to erase to something besides white?

The eraser isn't racist so it erases whatever is selected.

Well then, here's a revised Spirit of Knightmare; the old version didn't have the different artwork on the left side.  And I know how to do TGA's with transparency now so I'm  :mrgreen:
