Label-Making

[paper-tiger]

I have decided (after all two models I've attempted so far) that I really, really hate waterslide decals. "Slide" is definitely a misnomer! I just thought the Internet should know that.

I also discovered that the teeny-weeny repeating notice setting on my label maker printed text the exact right size to put custom location labels on my son's new passenger station. You can tell they're signs, but... They're supposed to be signs, so I'm cool with it!

Nice model and good idea on using labels. What label maker do you have?

Hi! Thank you! I thought it was incredibly complex.
My label-maker is a Brother P-Touch H100. I can't change the font, but the default one worked well for this particular purpose. I used it on Deco Mode #4 with black-on-clear label tape.
There are more (better!) photos and an overly-wordy entry about it on my blog: http://www.paper-tiger.org/2014/12/09/olin-station-atlas-passsenger-station-706/

Thanks mate, could be something worth investing in at some point then. As for the model, you did a great job, especially on the painting.
