Insignia decals
Posted by 101stAirborne on Tuesday, April 6, 2010 12:23 PM

I need to make some 101st Airborne patches for 1/35 scale and I thought I could print them up on some decal paper. I have one question though, will a regular printer work with decal paper?

I don't think a regular printer will work ecspecialy for the 101st cause they can't print white.Although I have never used them(yet) Archer makes dry transfers of most units ( I know they make the 101st) and also they have ranks too.

The other "make your own" option is to print onto white decal paper, but then you'd need to get the exacto knife out & cut all those tiny little badges right to their edges... I'd be tempted to go with jtrace214's suggestion though.

You may find what you need here:

They sell Echelon decals. I have ordered them before, and they look good. There are a few different sheets, each has several different units on them.
