Hello, I have recently built and painted a figure of Alan Shepherd playing golf on the moon. I think the kit is a copy of the Reheat figure, trouble is, I didn't get any decals. Has anyone got a pair of 10mm x 7mm US flags? I have a sheet of white decal paper but not a clue how to resize a pic of the stars and stripes. I think I can manage hand painting the NASA logo but the stars and stripes in approx 1/16 scale would be too dificult. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Steve.

Steve Copy this image onto a blank screen of your choice (Powerpoint, Word, Paint or whatever). Once copied, select the image and at each corner there should be a 'drag handle'. By clicking and holding on the corner handle you should be able to resize the image to whatever size you need. This is how I created this one... Rich

Thanks very much for the offer of the decals Nick. Will you be going to Peterborough on the 14th? If the decals are about 10x7 mm, could you bring them with you. In the meantime I will try and resize the pic from Rich (thanks for that) Steve.

Steve, not sure about Peterborough at the moment, but i'll sort the decals and either post them to you or get someone to hand them over at the show.

Thanks Nick, if you are going to Hinckley, can you take them with you. There is a chance that I will have the problem solved by then as Billy Pickering is going to assist me in resizing the flag pic and printing a set of decals. Fingers crossed. Cheers, Steve.

Didn't have any luck with making the decals so decided to use thin strips of red decal for the stripes and painted the blue portion, stars were added with a cocktail stick. Steve.
