ShotMagnet Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Anyone have any experience with Draw Decals? I just ordered a set of 32nd scale decals for my Tamiya 'Stang (Big Beautiful Doll). Thought? Cautions? Laughter? Shot Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riffer Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Also keep in mind the decals are based on preserved aircraft which may or may not represent the original faithfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I used Draw Decals on the wee beastie below, and can echo Jennings' comments: They were thick, stiff, and took some coaxing into place. On the plus side, the white kangaroos were suitably opaque, and looked good once the dust had settled.

Ben Brown Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 What Jennings says. The ink is impervious to all decal setting solutions. It's almost impossible to get them to lay down in panel lines, but I've managed to get them to conform to compound curves on some of my 1/144 airliners by pressing them down with a Q-tip dipped in boiling water. They're not too bad on relatively flat areas, like wings, tails, or fuselage sides. Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
