Draft marks?

Gold Medal Models makes draft marks in 1:192

Iron Shipwright makes them in 1:192 and 1:350

(The real thing look better than the scans.  The flag's bars are not washed together and the detail is all there!)

and Hawk Graphics has some in the works

Thanks! I was hoping for 1/400, but that's a start.

 Mail me if you want me to send it to you.

Thanks Hasse, but I think in this case I need to use the exact scale. After all, the draft is an exact indication of length. 1/350 on a 1/400 might be just too much difference. Though it's better than the decals supplied with the Glasgow, which are at least twice as big as they should be.

I might try making my own. Trouble is, my printer won't do white numerals on clear film. I might try creating white numerals on a background that matches the hull colors of the model, then print it on white film.  I'll let you know if I have any success.

If any after market decal maker is reading this, there could be a market for a sheet in various scales, Roman numerals and arabic, white, black, and metric and English.

I believe Micro-Mark makes a decal paper that will enable you to print white letters and numbers.

Using 1:350 scale items on a 1:400 scale model, they will appear 12.5 %  larger  [(400 - 350) / 400 :=  0.125].
