Tried a Decal on a previous slimline this morning, Didn't bother much about it, just stuck it on and done a few coats of CA and went over it with a bit of brass and copper polish, can only get better in my opinion?:thinks:

Looks good for a first attempt B H :thumbs:
Certainly can't see that it is a decal on the second photo. But pretty sure I can see the outline in the first photo :thinks:
Can you see that it is an outline when you look at the pen and the camera is picking it up more that the human eye would?

Are you talking about a mark above the second S on the end? If so I think I tore the end of the decal at the first try and it may be when i tried to sort it, it shows a bit of white for some reason, not bothered as i can redo it next trial,Thanks for that though

Looks great for a first attempt. I tried a few with decals, mixed results I think sums it up!

I'll make a note not to tear the decal when I have a go then :winking: :funny:
