NZ120 Db Decals

Today sees the completion of actually getting around to printing decals (Stripes) for the NZ120 Class. 

I only had 4 sheets of White Decal paper & no transparent sheets, so white paper will work considering my printer is unable to print white.

The image is freely available for anyone wanting to give decal printing a go. The local modelling hobby shops normally have decal paper & the bonder (Sprays on decal after printing to seal). The idea is to cut the decal carefully using a fine pair of scissors, and leaving a tiny black strip... 

Once the standard railcar arrives I shall use the same technique.

Perhaps I went a bit to heavy on the weathering, note the fruit salad Da lurking in the background.
