Thanks!

interesting idea, i guess your going to need a good setting solution to get the best out of them.

i would like to hear from modellers who have actually tried these for there real time opinion.

I agree with Keith here, this is an intriguing idea. The step by step on their site makes it seem easy enough but I would like to hear from someone who has actually tried them out. I have to say I don't have many problems with the camo schemes on figures, now if someone would make a decal for faces then I might really give it a try.

I think this is really useful for someone,

But not for me..I rather try to achive the same result by myself, (very hard though), I think camo decal for tanks may be better sellers,

I steer completely clear of camouflage as my patience can't tolerate the finesse. If you can get the effect as stated with the minmum of fuss, then I'd surely be a buyer! Need prisoner for some dioramas now and then...

I can't make hide nor hair of the web site in terms of trying to locate the "how to" section of the decals. It seems to me that trying to put camo decals on a figure and get the pattern correct and all the folds etc would be just as difficult as painting it.

The intriguing part is listed under "Meg" (the girls with the red and blue flower patterned dresses).
It appears they have the flower pattern in decals and looks like eyeballs for both figures are decals.
I can see several uses for the flower patterns ....aside from female dresses , wall paper etc.
It's frustrating not to read Chinese.
Babelfish is even more difficult to translate.

Yes they do have some intriguing figures and here also
Here is the Step by step

I would like to see their modern digital versions for USMC and the Army ACU

Ditto!

I have a set or two of them, haven't used them yet, so can't comment on how they work.

Good idea, but they look extremely difficult

Has anyone used this on figures and care to share their opinion? I've only recently discovered them and used them on some rucksacks. I could never paint a decent looking 3 tone woodland camo scheme and gave thes a try. I thought they were great and migh even get some more to try on some figures.

What do you think?

Left to right: ruck from Trumpeter kit, base coated, decal partly applied, finished with matt clear coat and attempt to highlight the straps.


For refernece, one sheet was sufficient to do 13 rucksacks.

Cheers,
