There wouldn't be a problem on the Biege/colored decal piece borders, but where ever there are two differently colored patches that natch up, you'd have to overlay the two different color decal sheets and cut the border through both, so they'd match on the model. As much as I hate painting 5 color camo, this idea is very attractive. Probably look like semi-crap on the first try, but I think there is potential here. It could make large collections of 5 color camoed models a possibility. So many cool planes in 5 color camo and such a PITA to paint. Maybe I'd only spend a little less time with the decals rather than the masks and airbrush, but I do better decal work than mask & airbrush work and this might be one way to sidestep a modeler's block trigger ;-) sp ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2003 14:53:37 -0600 From: "Lance Krieg" To: Subject: Re: Brent-O-Cam was warpo albie Message-ID: Mr. Theobald is: "... struggling to not start another kit until this very public build is complete."

Why would it have to be a decal? Why not a set of masks like Eduard does instead? I know one of SANDLE's suppliers is currently road testing masking film for something else...

That's my take on it anyway. ;-) Of course, as a card-carrying masochist I also like bashing my head against the wall, rigging biplanes and supporting the Socceroos. I do have one serious comment to make. SP suggested printing the pattern using an ALPS printer but IMO this is not the ideal application. For a start, the Alps strength is in finely detailed small decals, which wouldn't be used but more problematically its weakness is in printing broad areas in the same colour. Frankly, if you were to do something on this line it's ideal for traditional screen printing. Personally, the 5-colour patterns are so simple I can't see why I'd swap a bit of relaxing masking for a lot of stuffing about with whopper size decals and solvent. >(Wow!

Sure it would if you stack 'em up, but there is no reason to put more than one thickness of decal over the base coat, except for the black footprint on the starboard upper wing. Blatantly stealing and then mutating Mistress Lorna's idea, instead of masks, templates could be made of plasticard which are laid over the colored decal material and the shapes cut out consistently. First model would be trial and error, then use the paper backing from those to make the templates. Probably need a set of templates for scout size and one for two seater size to cover a scale. I'll have to get a re-supply of clear decal material and try it on one of my hopefully soon to be redundant Revell Spad XIIIs in 1/72. If it works on a 1/72 Spad with the odd fuselage shape and close together wing ribs, it ought to work on nearly anything else that used 5 color French camo. List of planes I want to do in 5 color French camo Spad VII in 1/48 Spad XIII (more than one in each scale) Hanriot Hd.1 (both scales) Salmson (both scales) Breguet 14 A2&B2 1/48 Late Strutter 1.48 Morane Saulnier AI (Both scales) Nie.27 (USAS trainer in 1/72) Nie. 28 (both scales) That's 17 models, way more than my mental block about masking and spraying 5 color can ever hope to comprehend dealing with. I'm hoping that this may turn out to be a masterable technique. sp ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2003 01:47:38 +0000 From: "Brent Theobald" To: wwi@wwi-models.org Subject: Re: Brent-O-Cam was warpo albie Message-ID: Howdy!

Message-ID: SP >Blatantly stealing and then mutating Mistress Lorna's idea, instead of >masks, templates could be made of plasticard which are laid over the > >colored decal material and the shapes cut out consistently If I were tempted to take this further I'd mutate Lorna's idea yet again and swipe yours too. Then I'd cut and use styrene masks laid on top of clear decal film in successsion to paint my own decals. Not unlike the Joey method for making painted loz - with rather a lot less holes to cut in the masks. It *might* be worth doing if I wanted to do multiple of a SPAD VII or XIII for example but why anyone would want to do that passeth all understanding ;-) Shane ************************************ My Strine is a Toad in Disguise (scarcely required for blind eagles) ************************************ _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail ------------------------------ End of WWI Digest 4921 **********************
