Hi all,
I searched back a few pages, but being at work, I don't have all kinds of time to search.
I'm looking for (actually desperately need) markings for 7.62, 50 cal., and 20mm metal cans. Does anyone make them other than decalomaniacs? Or is decalomaniacs stuff alright? I've never used them before, not sure if I've heard any news good or bad about them either, so I just don't know. They don't specify if there markings are in yellow.
Any help sincerely appreciated! (Mods, move this if required.)

I know that the 20mm can markings are supposed to be in white. Where'd you get them from Matt?

Verlinden has this rub-on pages with stencils in several colors, including white and yellow. THey are perfect for this.... but very expensive.

...thanks everybody. I looked for Verlinden's but came up empty. Also looked for H&A, no dice there either.
I'll probably dig out my trusty aircraft decals (the ones that you can't read anyway) and use those like I have so many times before. I was hoping for some nice accurate dry-transfers.

Sorry Matt, I had ASSumed that you had these decals on your 1/35th scale cans... It didn't dawn on me that you had the actual 1/1 scale cans.
