Just bought the Moebius 1/350 BSG Colonial One starliner/Presidential starship. Nice little kit. Not much for parts or assembly steps. Anyway, my idea is to turn this model into a starship for U.S. Presidential service. The model will keep the same blue and white paint scheme, but I'll change/add the following:
1. Seal of The President of the U.S. decals.
2. Add U.S. flag emblems/decals.
3. Add a few more communication antennaes/arrays.

But here's the problem: Where can I get decals of the seal of The President of the United States?
Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

Like this?

;D

Seriously though, plenty of examples pop up if you goggle Presidential Seal.  Can you print your own decals?

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

No, I don't have the capability to print my own decals. That's why I was asking if there were any available.

If you can find them, Minicraft did a VC-137 (they also do a VC-32A sans Seal) and Academy does a VC-25
