Hydro dipping wheels for Autism awareness truck.

I wasn't sure if this should go in the paint section or wheel section but anyway I am doing an Autism themed truck in something of a homage to my two nephews who suffer quite badly with it, they love the RC trucks and it's one of very very few things they can actually enjoy.
I saw some pictures on Google that someone had hydro dipped some wheels in the jigsaw puzzle Autism theme and wondered if anyone on here knows who it is?
I've contacted a few hydro dippers but nobody seems able to get the right material to do the wheels, the jigsaw pattern is too big for tiny RC truck wheels, I'm in the UK so shipping wheels back and forth would be expensive, but I'm really hoping someone could sell me some of the right material with the tiny jigsaw puzzle pieces on it so I can get my wheels done over here and finish up the truck.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help out or point me in the right direction.
 
Pretty sure SuperShafty has done it in the past, they tend to be limited runs and sell out quickly.

Shipping to the UK is just a killer and with customs on top too, plus i already have a guy here who can do it plus the wheels i want to use, is SS on here? I might try pming him and ask about buying material.
 
Sounds like your doing a awesome special project. Good for you. My son is autistic so I feel where your coming from. There is a group called asd crawlers rc on Facebook in California. The group has a strong focus on autism. I personally don't have any ties to them but came about them from watching Harley designs off of you tube. I'll check them out from time to time and they seem to do a bunch of special custom things like your asking. Maybe give them a shout.
