I also have some Salamanders waiting to be painted. As already said, the highlights work very well on that scale, great work!
How did you make the decals? I also have some, but they are from other chapters and printed black/coloured. For white decals you need professional printers which isn't affordable. Did you use a printing service for yours?
Hi Fibser, thanks for your comments.
The decals are by no means professional. Printable decal paper comes in clear and white, I used the white. For the Salamander head decal I got a pic offline, then using Photshop I cleaned it up and sharpened the image. I inserted it into a word document and got the sizes right. This involves printing on regular paper a sheet of various sized decals. Then I copy/paste enough decals of various sizes I need. Took up about two lines (too much and Word can't handle it). After a final test print, I print onto the white decal paper, (what your actually printing is the black background around the Salamanders' head). Once done, I dry it with a hair dryer, cut the printed paper from the sheet and give it a coat of clear car spray varnish. Once dry these are ready to use. The other orange squad decals decals, there a little more tricky and I spent a lot more time in Photoshop creating these.
