Testors Decal Systen | Yay or Nay

Is the Testors Decal System any good? Most of the testors stuff I have used is crap. Any suggestions with using it?

i had that kit, it was nice, it worked great but the decals are not the best, if you want to print CF, just use photoshop and make the weave or whatever and buy decal paper

Well how does it look. Terrific. I myself find it very very good for its price. Really like it and recommend it. Works the best when you put your printer on Best Quality

sk8er, you'r CF is probably the best home made I have seen, but the wave is too big. it's more 1/12 than 1/24.

this kit is really fin for Sponsor decal, but forget it for complex decal. they are also thin and won't stang a hard CF work on complex shape.

Re: Testors Decal Systen | Yay or Nay

i had the decal system but it wasnt that great, and i got the white back decal paper to just use photoshop and make my own, but never got around to making graphics

but the decal system it self, wasnt the best, i could do better in photoshop then with the testors kit.

Mike, just go buy some decal paper, and use photoshop
