Any of you guys know where you can get Transparent Waterslide Decal Sheets you can use with a PC Printer?
I've searched high and low here in OZ and all i've found are coloured ones which are useless to me.Any leads or help mucho appreciated.

I can ask around here Fb, can't say I'm familiar with such a product but I'll give it a looksy.
By the way, what do you plan on doing with waterslide decals? perhaps I or someone else can offer an alternative to help you out.
Will

SUPERCAL This is the stuff that guy who did that gorgeous Adam West/Aurora custom thing in Modellers Resource used a while back. I don't ever see it in the UK maybe a US guy here can look into it for you mate. www.supercaldecals.com |

They're the ones alright Mart,looks like if i'm in Canada or the USA i'm laughing.Now to find a way to source them.Thanks so much for the lead.
Will,i often use decoupage to achieve what i'm after but i have a few projects coming up that really need the tighter and more natural,blended look that can be achieved with a Decal.

Testers and a couple other folks make them. They can be found at many walmarts here and other variations at hobby stores in variety. I have some left overs since I personally have had rather hit and miss results with the stuff. Usually I cant prevent at least some degree of paint loss / scratching or just completely failing. Ive found the process virtually more trouble than theyre worth. But then I'm not that great to begin with lol.
Main thing in my limited experience is to make sure you get white and not the clear.

Thanks for that Will appreciate it.
Upon giving it more thought some White ones would definitely be handy and more user friendly for some of my needs,thanks Troy.

Hi, everyone. Does anyone knows can this transparent waterslides decals works on hot toys muscles body which is in rubber material instead of plastic. I am working on a project for my local customer who wants to customize a 12 inch 'Freeman' figure using hot toys muscles body and I have to put on 2 long 'Dragon' tatto on the front and back of the figure. Can anyone suggest a better way to put on the 'Dragon' tatto??? Thanks!!! Regards, Jon |
