Hello,
I will be buying the Trumpeter USS Nimitz 1/350 model kit with the intention of “re-numbering” it to USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69).
I’m having trouble finding the appropriate 1/350 water slide decals for the flight deck and island to do this, however. Gold Medal Models and Starfighter do not seem to produce these anymore and Ebay was a bust.
I realize there have probably been threads before this one asking about the same problem though I can’t find one right now.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks!
Brian
Are these what you are looking for: Here
When I click on add to cart is does add them. Granted, I can't tell if they are not in stock, hopefully it works.

Stupid question: is there any more to it than changing 8 to 9?
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
I apologize, Here is the set that includes the deck and island numbers and the stern nameplate.

That's not a stupid question. Yes, that's about it. Getting the correct 9 for the 69 on the bow/flight deck and both sides of the island is crucial for making it look like IKE.

Thanks for the help! I appreciate it.
See this link too, and Ed Grunes info:

As far as the deck numbers. maybe it wouldn't be too hard to turn an 8 into a 9 since they aren't shaded.
Or, if you are set up to do so, scan the decal sheet for Nimitz and see if you can print a bunch of 6's to make 6's and 9's.

I tried making them myself and fail three times.I know of modelers that made decals for themsevles. Thought came to mind if one of them could do a set for me. I will pay for it. Like someone said all these 1/350 Supercarriers are out were are the decals?
