Is there any online manufacturer that make waterslide decals?

I mean, you send an image with manufacturer's instructions and they send you the decalsheet you ordered and payed.

I've used http://decals.nl/
Their rate is about €21 ex. postage for an A4 sheet.

They make continuous-film decals so you have to cut the film to the correct shape. The film is thicker than you get in a model kit. Colors are good, white and red don't have total coverage so you want a light color underneath.

These guys have some pop culture stuff already, and they made me very nice Cobra, GI Joe, and Scooby Doo decals.

I have a long held desire to build this.

Do you mean an image you created with the instructions as to what you want, or a copy of
the markings page from an existing kit's instructions? In the former case there are several
outfits or you can try printing your own, in the latter it would be a copyright violation and
considered piracy, so most legitimate outfits will shy away.

I mean the first case. The point is that I do know how to print correctly the decals on my own.

Thanks, anyway! I'll just keep looking for another source but i do admit the digital camo sheets are very interesting indeed!
