Couple questions for everyone

Post by fullmetaljacket »

Hello

My first question is for people that have used teh Valejo water effects paint on there stands for ship models? One is it worth it? Does it look nice pictures if you can please? How do you apply it ie.. thickness, dry time?

second question how do most make tags or lablels for the ship bases? I have seen some nice ones on here. I use cardstock and a laserjet printer, for the most part they turn out nice but always looking for something better. Main question is Printer type used? Paper weight and type? laser Jet or Ink Jet used? Font size? Adhesive or glue used to attach them? Once again Pictures would be appreciated.

Thanks guys always looking forward to making my models and ships better and better.

Ship Tags for Micronauts

Post by ftm2kleszics »

I made my ship tags using Excel. The font is Calibri 20 font. The font color I chose is Light Turquise-background 2. My backgound color is Custom Dark Blue. I then sized the page to 40%. Unfortunately I do not have any pictures to share. However, I can upload my WWI ship tags I made for my Great War fleets for your inspection if you wish. Contact me at my Yahoo.com site to allow me to do this. Peter K..
