They'd have to be waterslide, and surely not a problem to print up. Someone will do them for sure.

I will do them if there is enough demand for them and also the other oroblem is to let the collectors know about the availability.
This is already a problem, as even here in Perth I run constantly into people that want them (1/18 ones) and do not know they are available plus from where.
I am going to put them on Ebay so that this will be another avenue.
Same deal with the 1/43 scale, when released.
I will do them if there is a demand and if I will not get caught with a big supply of them that I have had to pay up front, that in the end will end up in the rubbishtip.
The decal manifacturer, I use, is topclass so the Quality issue is not valid.
and the applying of them is realy very easy.
This small scale can only be done in waterslide decal.
Also ,as with the Ferrair's in 1/18,1/43, when you sell the model on, they do fetch a lot more $$ second hand as the average collector will want the model as close as possible
I think that this will be the case in the future with the Biante models as well.

You must be one hell of a clever bloke to even consider making decals in this size.
Good luck to all applying them. Not a job for attempting after three or four bourbons me thinks! :D

What will be the real issue is the price of these add on decals, as the size per se does not determine the production/etc cost, but the work involved.
The work is the same for all sizes and the end price to be charged will be almost the same as the overall of the model.
this is in my book the sticking point.

Well F Fan its up to the motor sport fan if he wants the car as the real deal or not the same with all scales.I know I like my cars as close to the real thing as possible.A few more $ is not a problem when looking at your cars complete.

Count me in to i agree with Mark052003, if you are serious about your models they are a must, I have bought the Harvey and the Longhurst decals from FF which are top Quality and just don't look the same without them, bring em on FF.

If you had the chance you couldn't really have the cars without them could you?

Not knowing the actual costs of making these, does it cost so much per sheet or per decal ???
If it's so much per sheet, perhaps releasing a set for say 4 cars etc....., as this could help keep the costs to a reasonable level.
cheers. :)

Hey ferrari fan
Put me down on the interested list...
I like brchi17's idea of the decal sheet set... Is this possible?

When the cars are out 1/64 and 1/43, I will have a serious look at how to do this and price it accordingly.
At the moment I have difficulty enough getting rid of the stock that I do have .
I do need all the support that I can in spreading the word.
Also there will be a stall in Adelaide that will take orders from the public and I have send some samples to help things along.
To actualy let every one know that they are available is the big job, and I do live in the smallest, most isolated place in the wide world.
So far the support & trust from you, the forum members has been sensational, and I want to thank you all for this, much appreciated.
I intend on doing the upcoming models as well and with the same quality ,if not better.
A lot of forum members are waiting to see what is the feedback, when a problem arisses there is plenty, when it is all good there is very little, that is just the way it is.
