No I can get paint (and I don't like enamel anyhow.) Shall have to hunt for masking tape because you are right About the semi needing an excellent trailer. Now how can I put the words nemesis prime on the side...

take your printer, and choose your favorite font, print it out ,then cut out the letters with a ruler and an exatco knife, now cut outthat template and stick it to the side of the trailer and use it to ;
-A, trace the letters on the trailer
-B, use the stencil as a mask, when doing this make sure the stencil is firmly against the side
or else, print your stencil on a transparant slide,
tape the slide with paper tape,
trace the letters from behind
^pull the tape off and use the tape as stencil and stick it on the truck,

Will have to try that. thanks kup. I could not spray it anyhow as the entire trailer is one selaed unit. there are no screws anywhere. I'll keep working to make it better.

I saw a label kit by Testor's at the store. It makes the get-them-wet-slide-them-off type sticker. Have either of you guys ever used these?

i think there is printer paper to make waterslide stickers,
could do the trick easy but you need to seal everything with clear coat or they will peel off after some time
or you must know somebody who can make high Q stikerz

I'll let you in on my plan now. When i finally get my deszaras figure I'm gonna make some cartoon accurate weapons for him. (the ball and cahin, sword and living metal destroying cannon will all be created for him. From whatever I can find as close matches.)

Just for fun. I found one today in the local charity shop and decided to use it for customising. Just thought it would be
to have a jungle camo prime.
