Hello Bianca

Thanks for your very interesting followup post.  When I get a bit more time, I'd
like to comment on some of the aesthetic issues you raise, since I've had to

Mine use classic smileys, and it rather suits the rather more classic uniforms
of the Original Six.

OK! I finished the second batch and even fit in tweaking some series one faces. I now have a whopping 51 unique faces (12 are alternate faces, so 39 unique figs). You guys raise some excellent points. First, the technical stuff about decal paper at (...) (19 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.parts.mod)
