Red Pegasus is really good. He has a website I can't recall the address, so you'll have to Google him. He did my 61 & 62 Ramchargers decals.

Try Shawn Lewis of Buffalo Road Imports @ constructionscalemodels.com

He did some really nice decals for me recently.

I sent that Redpegasus an email over a week ago and I have as yet to hear back. It was asking what format he needed for a quote on original artwork. You know,because I think we, as modelers, need some of these services more often, you'd think there would be more availible. I did a Google search for same and suprisingly, there are really not that many. I wish that modelers, as a group, could get some of these type services going, for modelers by modelers. I wish I could to do it myself, but I'm retired and funds are really tight. This economy is tough on us of age, but I digress. What I fantisize about are, decal, photo etching, chroming and realy good wheels and tires, services that are cheap and well made, without the spectre of coporate profit mentalities. I think this is getting away from me and turning into a RANT so I"ll stop. I hope you all get the real intent of where I was going!.

I agree. I make every attempt to support our aftermarket to make their efforts worthwile.

Do you have what you want, drawn out and scaled on an art program ? If so which one ?

[raildogg]

I think so. My originals are made in AutoCAD 2000 can be either dxf. or dwg. or even stl. file extentions. Is this considered artwork program ?

[Alan]

For me to do it, it would need to be a Paint Shop Pro or pref an Art Illustrator file ...

[Alan]

Can you show me pics of what you are trying to print

[raildogg]

Thanks but I din't have those softwares. I have a copy of Phot Shop 2007 but never learned how to use it. I guess I'll have to use my inkjet printer and make'em myself.

[Alan]

The thing is, that works fine if you are going to use them on something white, any other color and the decals will not work unless you have a white layer under them.

Is there still anyone out there that will print up a couple of custom water slide decals. I already have the artwork in hand it just needs to be sized (1/25 scale) and printed on water slide film.

Thanks for any suggestions in advance.

Does anyone hear does custom decal work? Theres a 65 AWB Chevelle that runs at our track and I would like to build this car. Heres a few pics of it. .Joe

Ok I found somere pics of this car. Anyone interested in trying to make some for me?

[Tom Geiger]

Joseph, this looks like a cool project. In order to get decals, you will need to take some good straight shots of each panel that you want to recreate. That would be a photo of the door, the quarter and the trunk lid. Once you have that, it becomes scaleable and someone can trace it for artwork.

[Ramcharger]

Try Red Pegasus Decals, he does mostly aircraft but he has done car stuff for me. Here's a link Red Pegasus.

[Alan]

Or you can try myself
