What's on your workbench?

It may be canon* but you still wouldn't want to be humping that thing around in the boonies.

*See what i did there?

My desert forces has one carried one handed by a battle droid.

[DougM]

Droids dont get tired they never give up.. oops, sorry, wrong movies. On the bright side the Rancor printed perfectly. I'm thinking a great candidate for some experimental airbrushing... I wish he did a version without a creature in its gob though.

I haven't been working on figures, terrain, etc, due to an injured left wrist, but I've been working on some decal designs for myself and a couple of mates. The idea is to get the sheets printed professionally by a local mob (Custom Hobby Decals), who can print white and get better resolution than an inkjet can. These sheets are for 15mm and 20mm WWII, and some stray 28mm WotR livery badges, and have been reduced to fit the forum image requirements. You never get enough tac plates and SQN symbols in commercial decal sets, and it's easier to decal than paint some things.

Very nice! If you've got room, RA tactical markings would be essential as you've already included RA AoS markings.

Some other useful ones might be:

Corps Armoured Car Regt (44 on green-over-blue with white bar across the top) and add some white 'D' Sqn markings for those (vertical bar for most, though Canadians used a 'Lazy D').

Corps Anti-Tank Regiment (2 on red-over-blue with white bar across the top).

If he can print them to 1/48th, I'd buy the sheets if possible.

Also, No Guards Armoured, Poles or Canadian Armoureds? Or even the Czechs?

Can you possibly do the white/red/white flashes on their own to 1/56? Needed for WW1 tanks - Mk IV, Mk V and Whippet.

[Spanner]

Thanks for the kind words, lads. I'm basically doing the units that the three of us are building- I'm doing a company of 1GG, a half SQN of 2WG Cromwells and odds and sods from GAD for me. Between them Bill and Tim are covering the rest of WWII, or so it seems, and the decals are aimed at what they currently want. In answer to your posts:

Mark- I looked at the RA battery plates, but for the mo' the only artillery vehicles anyone wants are some tank destroyers, a couple of Crusader AA tanks and FOO vehicles. The Corps AC units and Anti-tank may happen- what was going to be one sheet has already grown into three. D COY/SQN markings are a possibility, though, if Tim expands his Recce REGT requirements.

Fredd- they just print what you send them, but if you want scaling or any thing else done then Geoff will charge for it- which is understandable. If you're talking about the subunit markings I can scale them to 1/48, though I'd need the height of each as some units made them larger and some smaller than the reg's called for. Tac plates are easy, at 1/48 they'd scale out as regulation 4.76mm, though from photos they were often smaller than regulation (Mark, care to chime in?). Also they varied the subunit markings to fit the vehicles, as well (eg GAD Cromwells). I'd just send you the artwork, mate, and you'd need to find someone to print them. Yes, there are GAD decals- 15mm in the top left corner of the top sheet. No Canadians as yet, though Tim and Bill may do them later (they're doing just about everything else).

Baron- what I said to Fredd- send me quantities, heights and widths and I'll do the artwork and convert it to a raster format (unless you have CorelDraw or Illustrator?), but you'll need to get them printed or print them yourself. On the plus side you can use white inkjet decal paper and save some money by printing them yourself.

That looks like a labour of love!
