Militarymight,

One of my current projects is to begin printing my own decals via a color laser printer and water transfer decal sheet. I am currently working on finding different hull insignia, country insignia, et al and scaling them to 1/16th. I will post more information as the decal sheets come to fruition. There are, from time to time, sheets available on Ebay and are relatively inexpensive.

I haven't decided if I will mass or custom produce sheets. If I do, I'll repost to see if there is interest in such.

PAX

a.t.

I usually take a 1/48 or 1/35 decal sheet and enlarge it to 1/16 scale in Photoshop, then print them out on water slide decal paper. BackyardArmor has quite a few 1/16th scale decal sheets for tanks.

Ebay has some nice ones by creeping death for $15 buy now option. I ordered German but they seem to have everything. Seller has excellent feedback and no shipping charge.

More on peddinghaus: their decals are printed using an ALPS printer, which is the only way to print using also white.
The decal sheet comes in one piece, so you have to cut them by yourself. The decals are sensible to enamel thinner, therefore you cannot paint over them using thinner (which would destroy them), and they require a clear flat acrylic layer for protection.
