What's the Battle of Atlanta? I've never heard of it.

Seems like a good idea. There is a certain lack of Civil War brickfilms, so its nice to see a new project spark up about this historical event.
I'll most likely be keeping an eye to this project!

I love WWII Brickfilms, so this will also be interesting for me to see.

Sorry to disappoint you, but A) many of the uniforms (confederates in particular) aren't actual pieces, and were custom decals to begin with B) due to other people wanting to build union armies, the torsos are in high demand and low supply, costing about $2 each, and usually with only one available from each seller, costing nearly $5 each after shipping is added. C) I am over budget as it is, buying all the kepi caps and log pieces for Atlanta. In order to do this movie on the scale I want with actual pieces, I would need approximately $250 more dollars. D) I already have an extensive number of blue and gray torsos, even though the printing on them looks WAY too modern to be civil war era. I don't want to do what golden mind did, and just have a union soldier wearing padme amidala's torso while wearing a baseball cap. I want this to look accurate. So, rather than paying more than my original budget for a bunch of torsos I may never use again, or pay ridiculous amounts of money for specially made online decals, I plan to copy the decals, paste them in a word document, print them on sticker paper, and use them to cover up the original torso's printing and make it look like a union torso. While some say decals don't look right, I have done this process before, and I think it looks good. Plus, decals allow me to use a larger amount of outfits than LEGO makes. It's more important that the torso fits the movie('s scale) than that it is an official Lego torso.

WoutStopmotion, I do apologize. If the message came across as hostile, I didn't mean it to. I was merely pointing out why I was using decals in a factual manner. Think of the tone as a computer or robot or some other mechanical voice with no emotion, like JOSHUA in War Games. Sometimes when you can only read words on a screen instead of hearing the person's voice, you loose the person's tone. I'm very sorry if I offended you

NathanWells, I wrote that message on my phone while I was eating breakfast, so I may not have done the best job with formatting. LOL

I'm definitely interested in this, as there is a lack of large scale brickfilms, not to mention large scale battles. The premise sounds very interesting, and this sounds like it will be a great film, all around. Also, any idea how long the finished product will be?

Filming is going to begin this week. All scenes without dialogue will be shot first while auditions are held. Please audition (you will most likely be cast if you do)

I'm printing out decals, but I can't find any plain decals that are just blue, navy blue, or bluish gray. I need torso decals in this color to cover the backs of figures with back printing. I've searched the internet, and all I can find are superhero decals (Grr!) Also, photoshop and other programs won't work on my Microsoft HP, plus I know nothing about photo editing. Does anyone know where I can find plain decals in these colors or have any tips?

Hey Texas_cheeto_hog,

I noticed your comment about you needing a blue torso, I tried to have a look for you but no luck prevailed. However I did take the time to color it myself. I just took a general pirate torso, and re-did it in a blue cyan color. Hopefully it will be useful for you. The torso remains the same, if anything I'd cut a milimetre off the edges.

That should be no problem especially if you've used decals before.

Hopefully its helpful.

Sincerely,
Divine.
