at least for me, such would be a pain in me hind parts. it takes much "fiddling" with such a transfer that you ask about. it's possible using with paper. make several patterns. you may get lucky with one. good luck in yer attempts
It was probably acetone, but it might also be true that you need a little more info on that. Mirror the image & print using a laserjet. The paper is applied to the project with the ink side down and the acetone applied to what would normally be the back, unprinted side. Apparently, it will not work with inkjets. If you don't want to use acetone, you can use an artist's blender. However, all blenders are not created equal. The Prismacolor PM-121 is alcohol based and will probably not work. The Chartpak AD marker P-0 (201) as I understand it is xylene based and should work in place of acetone. Use with ventilation per instructions. There is another way of doing it with inkjets and an ink tank additive, but I don't use inkjets. Compound curves are tricky, but people use patterns all the time to checker rifle grips and there's plenty of compound action going on there, but if you are trying to do something with relatively small radius curves, good luck. You might be able to do it with Procreate & camera Lucida without paper or plastic, but you'd either have to (a) find a bidirectional "weave" type intermediary surface to transfer the art to and then use that to transfer to the compound curve project surface (Speedball has some semi flexible stuff that might work & there are some alumalite & dental products that could be explored), or (b) go directly to the surface using the Camera Lucida projection that might require something like a miniature stock checkering cradle attached to an engraver's ball vise. FWIW No idea if those would work.
