Hi I'm just running this question for feedback on what samurai clan you think decals are most needed for.
As some may know I have been releasing sets of samurai decals recently,
The next set due to be released in a couple of days is the honda clan.

Although I'm most interested in the sekigahara period I am prepared to consider other clans too.
The decals are for 28mm miniatures
If you want to see them they can be found on
steelfistminiatures.com
Cheers

Oda Nobunaga's lovely chrisanthemum Mon would be useful?

Water Slide? If so, Can you make from a submitted piece of art? Thx.

I'm assuming you mean the art reference?
I don't think someone can own the rights to a historically accurate mon.
I believe that kind of thing is public domain
But in any event I submitted the art references to a decal designer and I have paid to have the historical designs drawn by him.
I would imagine there is not much variation In a mon design that an artist could claim to without making it non historical anyway

Sakae Tadatsugu, please:

Seriously. Encroaching old age has removed my ability to do a passable rendering of such a unique mon freehand, so I need help here!evil grin

Ok , here I go :
Oda Nabunaga, Date Masamune, Takanobu Ishikawa, Nanbu Nobunao, Hosokawa Tadaoki, Ikeda Nobuteru, Ishida Mitsunari, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Ukita Udeie and Uesugi Kenshin.
Yes, also Sakai Tadatsugu, but would also like to see you make the figure (on a horse if possible). This is really a figure that everybody would like to have. The helmet makes the difference .

If you're doing Uesugi you really ought to do Takeda Shingen and his supporters.

Thanks for the suggestions so far, I'm not fully decided what set to make next but I do hope eventually to cover most daimyo.
Belgian ray, I do already make hosokawaw and ishida decals.
Sadatsugu will be covered also, probley soon as well. The figure will be further off as he died before sekigahara.
Shimazu are definatly coming soon, uesugi I'm not yet decided on, but due to the complex design it definatly needs decals.
Cheers

I'd really like to see an Imperial banner, with gold Chrysanthemum on red&gold brocade. (If it would cost too much to do metallic inks on the decal, print it in red and include instructions to paint the banner gold before decaling)

Sure, it's not a likely banner for Sengoku Jidai, but it's awesome for Bakumatsu gaming.
