pigsty Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I've started to amass the decals that Model Airplane International makes available on its website. They've already induced me to buy something I'd had no intention of buying, the bustards. Trouble is, I've no suitable printer, and it seems a bit excessive to buy one for maybe a dozen sheets of decals. So, can any kind soul with a whizzy printer offer a one-shot printing service? Say, I send the file, you print and post the decals, I pay for the paper, the ink, the envelope and the postage, plus a bit on top for your trouble? I stress this is about pre-prepared markings only. I'm not trying to commission new artwork here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyT Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 what scale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigsty Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 what scale? Variable - some are billed as 1/72 and some are 1/48, some are on one sheet and some on two (and I know not what size of sheet that is). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigsty Posted November 9, 2009 Author Share Posted November 9, 2009 Paul and I have discussed his kind offer but we've run into an insuperable problem of copyright. As a commercial operation, he very reasonably can't afford the grief. Any other commercial printer will have the same trouble - and I suppose if we were stretching a point, any offer of a few quid for your trouble would run into the same problem, but I won't tell if you don't! We could perhaps agree to split the decals - after all, there's up to a dozen on each sheet (more if you do the RN Buccaneers), and I can't hope to do them all ...
