I reckon the decals look great, as do the hand-painted ones up thread. As far as I am concerned, anyone dextrous enough to be able to apply decals to 28mm figures is dextrous enough to do an amazing job of hand-painting... :)

As in "You don't truly belong to me until you've run off the wrong edge of the table due to a series of bad dice rolls"?
So you know the phenomenon?

If only that was true. It's easy to put a blob of water or setting solution on the figure, place the decal and push it into position with a cotton bud- which conveniently soaks up the excess liquid and lets the decal settle. Try that with paint.

Nice work, Penda. Hopefully your lot will be less timid than mine are (3 games for 2 routs and a "stand fast and shiver").
