Decal Woes

So…for some reason i had a cup of turpenoid on the table i was working on and had the kit decals in a box close by and then that poltergeist that seems to hang out whenever I’m modelling decides to show up and dump the cup and of course everything that is close by gets soaked, Yeah! now I’m just a few steps away from dry brushing and weathering and I have to order new freaking markings. I’ve never bought after market decals I have a few places bookmarked, but I would really like all of your input, best value, quality, delivery speed etc. you all havnt steered me wrong yet. This Marder has taken me way too to long and has been a huge headache but has been a good learning experience

Thanks! Doug in Indiana

other than a couple of crosses, what else is there on the sheet?

I was going with a north africa theme so yeah crosses and palm trees

Bison Decals has a set for the Pz I that includes crosses and DAK palm insignia, might work for your needs. At $9 it’s a fairly cheap way to go…unless of course you can get someone to donate from their spares bin.

what scale?

Might want to try dry-transfers as well…takes a lot of that headache away…

Have you tried just painting the symbols on the tank? I can’t stand decals, so 9 times out of 10, I just paint them on.

Don’t really have a steady enough hand to paint symbols, I have bid on some templates on ebay but that just reinforces the problem of lack of airbrush, that should be solved within the next few weeks. I think I was able to salvage the decals, we’ll see, Thanks for the input!

doug im only an hour or so north of you ,so pm me your addy and ill shoot you some of my extras in the mail tomorrow.

I have some dry transfers, ah I think they are 1/48 the large crosses might work but the DAK palm trees are probably too small I pm’d you if you want the crosses just send me your address and I will mail them to you.
