May be a daft question but where do you guys get your 1/6th decals from, i cant find anything relating to the Leopard online here in shady Canada.
thanks for any links or advise in advance.
Martin.

Thanks Martin to bring this up ... would have been one of my next questions ... meaning I can't answer but I am also curious.
In my former projects with scale jets and helicopters, I could always rely on one source but this is no longer attainable. That's why I always made photos that are easily adjustable to the scale ... with proportional measures like in the photo shown below.
Cheers, Andre

Easy - make them yourself !
All you need is a colour printer, decal paper (which comes either white or clear) and a suitable program (I use Microsoft PowerPoint).
You’ll probably find many of the badges you need on the internet - just copy into your program and resize.
There’s plenty of guidance on this on the internet.
It’s fun, and gives you a greater sense of ownership and achievement.
Good luck !
Chris

I always use stencils, you can pick up the equipment very reasonable and once you have it you can do whatever you like for all the symbols .
