Picked up some Laser Printer Decal Sheets from the shop. Those things are not cheap. Costed about 6 bucks a sheet. Since I can't print white, I had to buy a white and hope that I can match the paint color for the blue. Here's a run down of my costs for this project so far...
- Rohby recast $50
- Fusion Patriotic Blue $4
- Fusion Satin White $4
- Tamiya paints (Red, Yellow, Black, Silver, Green) $6
- Brushes $2
- Decal Sheets $12
- Xacto Set $20
- Tamiya Masking Tape $6
This is pretty much assuming you start with nothing, which is what I did. Of course, a lot of these materials will lend to future projects, but this sucker is coming in well over an original JM, but I have to say... I think it does and will look much better than the originals do.
Things I still need to get:
- Flat lacquer
- Decal Film spray
I plan on doing the decals on Illustrator tonight, hopefully, printing tomorrow and applying as well. We'll have to see.
