Searching for White pin stripes
Posted by Helo H-34 on Thursday, January 29, 2009 3:19 PM

Hi everyone , I have a number of 1/72 scale Helicopters in my stash that I was thinking of building as US VIP Helo's . I also have some United States of America / Navy / Marine Corps decals in white . I was thinking I would use them on a CH-46 Seaknight , CH-53D Sea Stallion , HH-60H Sea Hawk , a couple of Sea Kings as well . However I dont have enough white pin stripes to use on each Helicopter and I've been searching the net looking for some pin stripes or even some solid white decal sheet and I could cut my own stripes .

So I was wondering if anyone knew of any online hobby stores that may have some white decal paper or pin stripping .

I greatly appreciate any assistance with my inquiry , Kind regards John.

Perhaps some of the links at the bottom of this page may have what you are looking for.

IIRC MicroMark sells white paper, may have stiping as well.

Thank's for the link eric , I haven't been to Micro Mark web site before , my first quick look at their site shows lots of interesting stuff . I did see some solid white decal paper but I'll have a much longer look for some pin stripping . Thank's again for the link Thumbs Up [tup]

Glad to be of help.

 

A few other thoughts. 

You might also look at car parts stores and even sign shops for scraps of vinyl.

Just don't use the colored electical tape, it shrinks badly and leaves a sticky mess.

Also white decal sheets for the printer may work.
