Hello..
Haven't posted for a wee bit, But still have been reading all the awesome posts! I brought some decal sheets and spray from a model shop to make decals for the fire truck and ambulance. First it worked sort of but now the decals have run and look like shat! What do you guys use to make decals??
Cheers Nick

Nick, I'm not quite sure what happened to your decals. I like to use waterslide decals that are commercially made by several companies. I have used a decal paper that can be run through an ink jet printer. There are also several makers of these and the product from Bare Metal Foil has given me the best results. www.bare-metal.com/

Dear Sirs: A very nice article about decal making was published on the September issue of MAR. Its author does post in this site. A computer URL was also mentioned: www.craftycomputerpaper.co.uk and that seems to be the ideial paper source for decal-making.

I bought a computer today - hopefully my friend who works in graphic design will be able to provide me with some nice vector programs and help me get started as well. Once I am able to make decals, nothing will hold me back.
