Decals

I have been using Doms Decals for some time now http://www.domsdecals.com/ . They can be a challenge to use as they are a sheet of decals not individual ones like Battlefront for example, but Dom provides a variety of dacals not seen from other manufacturers in 15mm including German Unit markings, British Divisional and weight markings (the yellow circles). This gives you the chance to model units from many units to a level of accuracy that has been difficult to achieve before without a very steady hand and a very small brush.

They work well with decalfix softening them or the Vallejo Decal products and providing you clip them as close as possible they are almost invisible once applied and treated.


Here's some on a recently completed Panther Conversion for the 653 Heavy PanzerJagers. The smaller crosses are very handy for Panther models as well as other small AFVs. (his sheet has 3 different sizes)

On painting table last night.

4 Vampir Panthers (IR Equipped Panthers)
2 Kugelblitz (AA Pz IV tank)

I based a platoon of German Mountain troops too.
