Jerdatty Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) New to posting but quite familiar with the forums and all of the amazing work you all do. A while back my father had a heart attack and was off work for a bit. He was going stir crazy so I suggested he get a couple models to pass the time. (He used to do them when he was younger.) long story short, he went back to work before he could get any started. My mom asked me if I would be willing to finish them for him. I figured I'd give it a shot. Here's my starting point: [URL=http://s682.photobucket.com/user/Jerdatty/media/IMG_1075_zpsek3sgphb.jpg.html] Edited February 18, 2017 by Jerdatty

Jerdatty Posted February 21, 2017 Author Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) Started the purple bath. I think I might have jumped the gun by putting all of the chrome in, but too late to worry. I can work around that. Also let me add that this process was really simple. Edited February 21, 2017 by Jerdatty

kilrathy10 Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 These have always intrigued me.....Can't wait to see how this unfolds.....
gatorincebu Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 That is a nice start . I have always wanted one of those kits. But when they come round I am never ready to buy one. I like that style of dump body ! Be Well Gator
Jerdatty Posted February 22, 2017 Author Posted February 22, 2017 Need help. Been searching online but can only find bulk order options, or ordering 25 sheets of paper to do it myself. Neither is really an option or a need, so I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can order one custom sheet of decals using a template I provide.
Mopar - D Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Nice project I've built 2 of these dump body's with resin cabs. Are you looking to make some custom decals? If so you can print your own on decal paper.
Jerdatty Posted February 23, 2017 Author Posted February 23, 2017 Yes Mopar, but I don't want to buy a package of 25 sheets to do one project with will take 1/8th of a sheet.
Warren D Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 IIRC, Micro Mark sells the Bare Metal Foil decal paper in single or three packs.
