After seeing an example of a Shapeways plane at Millennium this year, I've got a bug to make a 1/144th 0400 for my WoG games.

Does anyone have one these: link

If you do, what diameter rondels would I need for the upper and lower wing surfaces. The fuselage?

Does anyone have a source for decals this small?

I do have the Testors decal kit if I have to resort to making my own with an inkjet, but I've never used it. How well does this work? Are there any tips beyond the instructions?

BTW, I've already had a discussion with Dom and he tells me he doesn't have the appropriate sizes.

Check out 1/144 Direct's e-bay shop. There used to be a decal sheet for the 0/400.

Thanks, eBay is blocked at work, but I look them up when I get home.

Thanks--ordered! Lots of good decals for Shapeways planes.

Yes. I`d reccomend 1/144 directs O/400 sheets which are specifically intended for the Shapeways model with a couple of options available.ebay.com/itm/1-144-Decals-British-Handley-Page-0-400-Bomber-Shapeways-WoG-WWI-YK-31-/110813943791?pt=UK_ToysGames_ModelKits_ModelKits_JN&var=&hash=item5f79bc0670#ht_4104wt_684
You could also use them on the Skytrex/Red Eagle as well if you want!

Perfect! I've been trying to figure out how to make the decals for a Shapeways' Ilya Muromet heavy bomber… They make them, so problem solved. Cheers!
