Thanks!

Ouch - looks like that's a set to avoid.

Hi Guys,
Yes, there is a newer sheet in the works right now. The new sheet will be a 100% reload of the current sheet, basicly cleaned up and prepared for a slighlty different printing procedure. However, it's going to be a while before it sees the light of day due to a catastrophic illness in the family (my wife has breast cancer). This particular sheet was actually printed as a pdf file and I think over time, the image degrades. It may also be the printer I used which is an Alps rebuild. As to the screening of the colors (the dots), this is an unfortunate side-effect of the printing algorhythm of the printer and there isn't too much that can be done about it. Some reds, yellows and greens are the usual victims of this. Anyway, I hope to have these out later this year (if everything else works out). With luck Stephan should have them in his hands by the end of July, with production a little later.
Regards,
Georg Eyerman

Georg, sorry to hear about your wife, all the best for a quick recovery! I knwo all too well what cancer can do.

As for the decals, as you know I thought highly of the other two, so I'm sure it's just because it's an older set. Looking forward to reviewing the new one. However, a review won't be in until early fall since we're moving to a new place later this summer.
