USCG Decals Needed

Hunter,

Here is one set from Caracal: Here

The more colorful decals like in your picture I can only find in 1/72. You may have to paint that color.

Hello Bruce - 

Thank you very much for the link. I am going to search alittle more...but if I can't find any this will definitely work. Thank you sir.

If you have an inkjet printer, you can make inkjet decals.  Try doing a google IMAGE search with words coast guard logo and see if you can find the images you need.  The white shield will be a problem.  You'd need to make a decal of part of that red stripe, to go over white paint (inkjet printers do not print white), and that would require matching the red to the red paint you use, which is not a trivial task but can be done.

Aaah,  quote isn't working.   Anyway Stauffer recommended searching about and printing your own,  particularly the crest.

Both Hawk Graphics and Alliance Modelworks have decal sheets which include the USCG crest.

Alliance Modelworks

While listed as 1:350 scale, the crests range from about 1/4 inch up to more than 1/2 half inch.    My only gripe with the set is that it misses the vertical stripe USCG flag.

Hawk Graphics

It is listed as 1:96 scale and is designed for cutters.   The crest sizes are identified in-scale size so you can select which is closest to appropriate for you.   Again, no flag

Gentlemen - 

Thank you so much for the great information. I will look into all that have been suggested.
