Morane Saulnier 1/32 scale emblem

[sobrien]

I am beginning Special Hobby's Morane Saulnier Type N and sadly the kit is lacking the Factory emblem from the side of the cowl. If I remember correctly someone was making decals of the emblem a couple of years ago. Any one remember who made them? I know Tom's Model Works make brass ones, but I'd prefer a decal.

Thanks,

Sean

Sean.

I had a lead from a person who made the decals but it was back in 2011, I tried to contact him but his email address is no longer valid, I will keep trying to see if I can find him because his decals were very good.

Des,
I would appreciate that, though it doesn't sound promising. I could get the photo-etch, but then I'd have to paint the background color within the emblem and I'm not steady enough with a brush.

Don't need to be steady, just fill in the recesses, let dry and polish the paint off the high spots using fine abrasive and a light touch....

i was about to post how i did mine but bo beat me to it. thats all you gotta do. try to paint the blue background but if you get a bit of paint on the m/s then buff it with a super fine sanding stick or sanding pad like 3000 to 4000 grit and it shines the brass as it removes the odd splotch of paint. easy

Thanks, I 'll go for the brass.

I'll take mine in vinyl

Very nice Bob, can you do that in 1:32 scale and in gold (brass)

With all the talent that is being displayed on the forum is there someone out there who can design and print the MS logo in 1:32 scale in a brass colour on clear decal paper. If anyone can do this please contact me so we can work out a deal.

Des,
 Do you know the size of the original? If so, I can shrink my one down, colour it to something similar to brass and have a go at printing.
Cheers,
Bob

Thanks Bob.  I estimate that the size of the logo is 5.25mm in diameter (in 1:32 scale). If someone has one of Tom's Modelworks PE logo maybe they could measure it for a comparison.

Hi Des,
 I tried and I failed to get the resolution required to print a clean logo.
We need someone to produce in etch brass 

Cheers,
Bob

I can make the decals when I get home next week, if vB will share his vector art
