Water slide decals

[pdansalvish]

The "stickers" that came with my tank stink. So, I have been looking for some waterslide decals. I only have found some in England and shipping cost would be high. Is there a place in the states which sells some nice waterslide decals? TIA.

Take a look on EBay. There are a bunch of different small shops and hobbyist that sell some.

I make pretty much all my own waterslide decals. If you have a graphic program PhotoShop, CoralDraw, MS Paint, etc. and a computer printer it is very easy to make your own very nice decals. The biggest limitation for the casual hobbyist is that to print "white" is cost prohibitive. There are work arounds with white decal paper or even a little touchup paint. Inkjet printers print better images but lazerjet print more opaque for solid colors. Make sure you buy the correct decal paper for the printer you have.

I prefer the Dry Transfer markings. They look more like they are actually painted on, if you apply them properly. They do not have a carrier film like decals.

I like dry transfers too. I use them for most of my numbers and basic symbology. Just wish there were more that could be used with tanks. It’s almost all train related.

Archer has some tank related transfers. I got them for my T-34, and Pershing, but they have others. Take a look at their web page, they constantly add more.
