Fonts for decals
Posted by Don Stauffer on Wednesday, June 6, 2012 10:38 AM

I am working on an article for a model mag on inkjet decals.  One of the problems I always face is finding the right fonts.  What are some of your favorite font sites for registration number fonts, stencil fonts, various military markings, etc.?

Don:

Simmers Paint Shop is a great source for many usable and freely-downloadable fonts:

They also have quite a few downloads for various markings and national insignia (though many/most are in Photoshop's PSD format).

I would advise having one's antivirus/antimalware software operating for downloading -- though I've never found anything even remotely hinky in the site's downloadable files themselves, I've occasionally found something trying to "sneak through" along with their files.
