Roy, it was that I was alluding to when I mentioned I thought you may have had a look for something. Is that going on the nose? If it does, it’ll look well. A fine bit of research and well done. now if only our small fragment of info would come through….
Yes Chris – that’ll be going on the nose. The only method I can use though is to create a decal much like the old airfix ones we had as kids. I’ve heard rumours that these can fade but can’t see an alternative method. It seems that most artwork on aircraft was hand painted and I’m not that good!!
Richie… the graphic they sent me is only about 530 pixels wide but looks surprisingly good blown up to A4 size.
I’ve got a test piece of alloy currently in etch primer which will get a colour coat, a few decals and then different clear coats to see how the decals behave. I’ve seen stickers and transfers literally melt before your eyes when you apply a clear coat or varnish. Scary!!
Roy.
