as above anyone know of any sites to get a good scale CF decal sheets form as well as some after market decal sheets/parts for tamiya bikes and cars?

Cheers

In the UK -

www.hiroboy.com - he is just starting out. Member on here, name of hiroboy, (AKA Steve), his prices are good but only a small selection at the moment, and paypal only.

www.grandprixmodels.co.uk - Always out of stock, need to make back orders. Takes forever.

I tend to go to -

http://www.mediamixhobby.com.sg/catalog/index.php

Ships to the UK cheaply, but his prices are sometimes high.

I’ve just stated to use CF decals, read up on how to use them, as they can be a tad frustrating. Good luck.

Had a look on mediamixhobby they seem to have some nice stuff, did you get charged tax by customs? also do you have any tips on using CF decals? andy tips or web site would be helpful.
Cheers again mickbench you are always a BIG help

There are a few tutorials here for you –

http://www.scalewiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Applying_Carbon_Fiber_Decals

http://www.scalewiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Working_with_carbon_composite_deca ls

I’ve used them, and I’ve done OK.

Also, if you keep orders below £30 I have found the taxman at customs leaves you alone. It’s meant to be less then £18, but I’ve had orders for £20 - £35 and not got stopped. Even had orders past £65 and not got stopped, yet one for £50 did. It’s a gamble.

I’m hoping www.hiroboy.com gets a credit card system online, and expands his product range, as he is in the UK, so it “could” be a great place for UK model builders. I’ve yet to make an order, but he stocks crazy modeller parts, parts I’ve heard to be VERY good. And good value for money.
