    8x10/mini-helmet marker question.

    Hey guys, I bought a Riddell MLB mini helmet and a few 8x10s to get signed for Spring Training when I go next week. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what markers to use for these, like SRX markers?

    Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

    Sliver Sharpies look great on the mini-helmets (if you have a helmet that is dark colored)

    not to be a jerk, but DONT ever EVER EVER EVER use silver sharpies on anything. Look at what it did to the Carmelo auto I got last year (it is in the lower left corner) you can't even see it! If you want your helmet to look like that by all means get it done in silver sharpie.



    What you said, silver SRX, is what you should use. Check out the way my desean jackson came out with one:

    Thanks for the input guys. The mini-helmet that I have is a red Phillies mini, so I'm not really sure whether to use black sharpie or silver SRX for that. That sucks about your Melo there, Erik, but at least your Amare came out nice. I think I'm gonna go out and buy some SRX silver markers for my darker pictures, it seems that there is a consensus about them being the best.

    Is blue sharpie the way to go for lighter pictures then?
