I see guys making some AMAZING slot cars; they look more like static models. Who are you guys getting your decals from for racing type cars, especially IMSA, GTP, GTC, and the like? I'd prefer someone stateside, but willing to go international.

And is there a book or resource around where I can get help with painting? I'm not talented...not the least bit, so I'll never produce some of the type of bodies I see on this site. I think if I can learn some of the basics I can do a decent job, especially with the help of decals.

Patto's Place down in Oz. Un-matched selection & he has peel & stick also.

Road Race Replicas (RRR) in Washington state. Also a great selection of waterslide decals.

Hang around here & read up and you'll be cranking out killer paint in no time. :thumbsup:

Test run of home made decals.

This is the very first of what will be many more. Solved the inkjets don't print white problem. Created in Photoshop CS5. HO scale.

Yes, Papilio clear.
The yellow letters greened up some, but the rest fell right in place.

I'm still in the experimental phase, finishing up today. Need to make sure there's no issue w/ transparency. Will post results when I have them.

Final test on clear was a bust. Going to try more using white paper.

Going to post further info on this in a seperate thread, I feel I've kind of thread-jacked this one.
