Has anyone seen ICE's players on an NHL model Super Chexx? Does ICE do a good job? I understand they do not do names/numbers on back, only team colors/logos.
I'm ready to buy my NHL game, but was curious how custom I can go on the players and entire unit if I ask ICE to do all the work.
Thanks

I have Boston vs Toronto, and the players look amazing. You are correct, they only paint the uniform of the player with uniform colors and logo on the front of the jersey. I am thinking that I might be able to get some decals for numbers and names of my favourite players all time for each team and then add a coat of clear coat over the numbers and letters for names. Might even add "C" and "A" for captains and assistants. I've done some modeling hobby work with model cars in the past so will try air brushhing with a clear acryllic paint over the decals.

Thanks for the reply leafybruin!
I know there are guys out there that will paint players with great detail (for a price), but I was hoping to get one-stop shopping by having ICE do all the work. Some of the side painters I talked to kind of trashed ICE's work, but I'm not going to worry about it. Of course they think they can do a better job than the company. They'll take the time to worry about just my order. ICE has many orders to pump out. I get it.
Like you, I can always add names/numbers/details later (or hire these other artists on the side). I just want the theme to be there when my game arrives from ICE. HOCKEY!
Enjoy your game. Post some pics of your players if you can!
