Hi, this is my last job, I was tired to have the same body as many people in mi track due mini-z have pre-painted bodies, so I decided to make something different, I took the idea from a Nismo car and did the decals in my computer with Corel Draw, then I printed it with waterslide decal paper as the slot cars and this is the result.

Thank's creep I was wondering that nobody will answer my first post:D :D, I've seen great jobs in this forum, it seems that I'll have to work harder, now I'm working in a couple vipers, one Ferrari Modena and one Mercedes CLK.

Hey that looks great! How'd that water slide paper work out for you? Was it easy to work with? Inkjet or LaserJet? Did you notice if they could be reversed? I was thinking on using that as a reversed decal for the inside of a lexan body. Not sure yet how it will react to paint but it may be worth a shot.

The waterslide paper works great, I've used the laserjet paper and once you get the colors desired looks perfect, I've used the white waterslide decal paper that could not be reversed, but you can also find transparent decal paper, not sure if it will work but paint shouldn't be a problem I've varnished the body and not find any extrange reaction

I just ordered some of the clear laser waterslide paper. When I get it I'll give it a shot on some scrap lexan and paint over it. This should be interesting!
