My son is working on a Zevzda Panzer 1. He hopes to enter it in a local
contest. In looking at the decals I'm pretty sure we are going to have a
diasaster on our hands once he tries to apply them. I think they are older
than he is.

I was looking around on the web and found some neat decals from Bison. Does
anyone know a US source for the decals? They are on the great models site
but I can't get through to anyone to find out if they have them in stock.
I've tried a couple times both via email and phone.

If anyone has a set they are wlling to part with in 1/35th scale please let
me know.

Thanks,

Chris

Have you considered a protective coating of liquid decal? This has a good
chance of preventing disintegration of decals.

Guys,

Thanks for the heads up on the Tamiya sheet. I've been told its no longer
produced.

I'm working on the decal film but we have 5 hobby shops in the Madison area
and none of them have anything like it in stock.

Thanks for the help.

Chris

Bummer on Tamiya sheet.

Spray some clear acrylic over the sheet.

Ive got a couple of smaller white crosses left from the CMK
morsezugmittle you are welcome to but no numerals.
