Do modellers ever paint instead of decalling? I wouldn't think of trying to paint small fiddley bits, but I mean things like targets that cover a lot of plastic, go over bumps, and don't bed down (aaaargh!!) I was thinking about maybe using a template printed out from the original decal or something, and using it as a stencil.
Also, what can you do with silvered and cracked decals? Are they beyond repair? I used microsol and they're beyond that now. I mean after the fact, rather than the prevention of silvering.
