Hi am wondering if they is any way of applying a decal to a non flat surface ie a mass face, i am trying to create a hanging curtain type banner, i can create the banner by using solid blend which forms my creases in the curtain and gives it the wavey look i want, is there any way of applying a decal that will follow the curves of the curtain i have made, i suppose i could do it by applying a material but how do i create a material with my poster design on?

I hope that makes some sense and someone could help me out.

Many thanks

I don't think so, the decal it's a Flat image so use the "material" with the image you want to do that....

In the properties of the object go to the materials and duplicate a "Default" then in "Generic Materials Properties" change the color by image and then select the image you want, adjust ths scale and the others parameters....
