1:35 Dry Decals
Review by Neil Pepper
This is the first time I have use dry decals and I must say that from the few I have experimented with, I do like them. These ones are fine, not too big or thick, the colours are very clear and crisp. I found them very easy to use, simply cut out the ones needed, placed on the vehicle and rub. To do this I cut the tip off a cocktail stick, sanded the end to get rid of any sharp edges and then gentle rubbed down. You know when you are there and able to remove the backing paper as you can clearly see the decal come away from the clear paper that it comes on and that’s it, as easy as that.
A great feature about these dry decals is that they don’t leave any backing film that you get with water-slide decals. Good, because as the decals is dry and has a flat finish it is ready to weather along with the rest of your models – superb! Saves valuable modelling time too and that’s clearly a bonus with this type of decal system.
I do hope they will be increasing the range and add 1:48, 1:72 scales to the range.
So would I recommend these? Well that’s an easy one, yes I would and I will be getting some for myself. So please keep them coming.
