Jay I'm wondering the sam thing. There was a website that did decals in 1/18th scale. They had decals for Big Beautful Doll, Lucybell and those are just to name a few but I havent seen the sight for some time. I wish I could help but 1/18th decals and the people who make em are hard to find.

Maybe Vexillarius is the manufacturer you are looking for,they have some stuff here

I'm interested as well since I am going to need to repaint my Laura Michelle once I replace the tailwing from BBD that SurrealNJ is sending me.
Also Spudkopf (a board member from Australia) told me a while back that he produces decals which are available commercially,maybe he can provide us with info?

Ask John at John's Stuff:

I know he makes 1/6 decals and he's making some O scale train decals for me now. If he doesn't have any on his site email him and tell him what you're looking for and for a price quote.

Try Lair at
4evr4us@earthlink.net. I believe he does the "historically correct" decals available through BadCat.
He did some custom star n' bars and numbering for a 21C Corsair I'm working on.
He did a great job for me, although I haven't got them on my repainted late-war Corsair yet. The decals look great and are right to the specifications I requested. On his own, he provided extra white backgrounds to give me full opacity of the white over dark blue. I found him very informal and flexible, a pleasure to communicate with.
Regards,
JimBob

Spud,
I haven't got them yet (John siad he was still tweaking), but I can't wait until they arrive. Thanks for your input!!! Between 1/6, 1/18, and 1/48 I don't have a lot of room left for anything else

What.......
No 1/144th, 1/87th, 1/32nd or 1/35th, I think your letting the side down, so you better pick up your game
The decals should not be that far off, as I did some minor tweaking over the weekend to correct a text bleading issue.
John has also had a hard drive crash (lucky no art work was lost) and at last contact was 70% back up.
