Does anybody know how to print off decals or photos. I photo shopped some nose art off of the internet and want to put it on my warbird. I am not sure what to use as it needs to adhere to the monocote. If anyone has suggestions or know who to go to I would appreciate it!

I use a print your own water slide decal paper put out by Bare-Metal Foil called Experts-Choice Decal. I use the ink jet white backed version of the stuff. I did all of the decals for my B-17 with it. They sell a clear backed paper but it really dosen't show up well on the model. What I had to do was print a background color that was as close a match to the color of the surface I was putting the decal on. It wasn't prefect but for my purposes it did well enough. Someone that has a better eye for color could probaly do better.

There is an article about this system in the January 2009 issue of Fly RC.
It is on page 52 and looks like a neat system.
Total cost is about $160 plus supplies.

I just got this issue from my subscription.
Not sure if the newstand has them yet.

Good Luck,

Callie Graphics. She does wonderful work. She has plenty of colors and does custom work. Just send a picture, and scale/specs of the model your putting them onto and send them to the address given on the website. Callie has prices affordable for the average modeler and is very quick with your order.

Excellent. Thanks for the help. The decal paper will work out quite well.
