edsmith0075 Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 Hey Gang, I just wanted to pass on some info about a geat decal company that I have ordered my MOC train decals from. http://www.microscale.com/ these guys are reasonibly priced and have just about every logo and sticker needed to detail our trains. They pre cut, well made, and even come with a picture diagram of where they go on the train. I ordered the O-Gauge decals and they fit perfect on my trains. I plan to post pics but have been super busy with other projects and waiting for BL orders to arrive. Quote
JopieK Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 Thanks for sharing this edsmith! With decals / stickers a train looks much better. Quote
SpokaneSteve Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Hello all: I have used Microscale decals a bit and they do look great and there are many different types available. A brief word of caution is that they are a bit fragile. If the MOC is being used be a careful adult I could see them lasting a long time however my trains are played with by a few kids and they didn't last very long until they began to chip. Now I cover them with a piece of transparent cellophane tape which protects them. It's nearly invisible most of the time. Just my 2 cents. Cheers, Steve. Quote
edsmith0075 Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 I got mine in the mail yesterday, I tried out a test piece and they hold well on lego bricks. I plan to do my MOC GP38 in Norfolk Southern with the decals when I get a chance. I'm excited because MOC Trains look so blah without decals. I'll post pics as I go along for others to see. Quote

That is the advantage of vinyl over decals of course! Quote
