Default RE: Graphics

Do a search for "custom graphics" or "decal paper" and you'll get lots of results. My plan for a couple of planes I'm re-covering is to print my own graphics off the computer, using decal paper, then seal the decals on the model with clearcoat. I've seen pics of models done this way and the results can be very impressive. These are water-transfer decals, and look better than traditional "stick-on" decals because after sealing, they have virtually no borders, looks like paint...........based on pics I've seen, anyway.

Yo Madd_Maxx, I noticed the horizontal stabilizer on your spad.....that bird hasn't been crashed a few times, has it? LOL I'm tempted to try one of those things some time, the idea of a plane that can take smashes and crashes without fear of serious damage is appealing............
