Above are closeups of the flags on a half hull model built by Gary Tassier. I have been making printed decals for models for several years. I started out making printed decals for wooden boat models. I recreate the original names, hull numbers, logo's, and miscellaneous graphics for all models.
The model to the right, Leapin Lisa was built in 2004. I cut the lettering from gold and put a black outline around the gold letters. The motor on Leapin Lisa is hand carved by Gary Tassier out of foam and I duplicated the Honda lettering and the number as it was on the original motor.
All I need are the dimensions of the model, the available space for logos, and a photo of the real vehicle or object. I am able to recreate almost all of the details and print on high quality vinyl that is easy to apply.
I
duplicated the hull numbers and name on Dusty 2 years ago. I designed and made
the ensign flag and the Chris Craft burgee out of real cloth. The lettering
and numbers are cut from gold with the standard black outline used on the antique
boats. The boats were built by Gary Tassier of the Les Cheneaux Islands.
The
mini cooper shown above was built by John Dezan, Quebec, Canada. He contacted
me and asked if I could custom design Canadian Flags for his 1/25 model. Here
are the vinyl flags that I designed and printed for him. Nice looking model
John. I also did all the graphics for a police car that he was building.
Notice
the tiny silver Chris Craft logo I made for Soul Soother!
Beautiful
working 1/12th scale model of a 1930s-vintage mahogany racing hydroplane.
All lettering is in Gold with an outline and the ensign flags are cloth. Check

John
and I worked on the graphics for this police car for a long time till we got
it just right. The model is a model of one of the patrol cars in Memorphmagog
Quebec. This is certainly a beautiful model - GOOD JOB JOHN! He promises me
he has a lot more models in the making. I will post pictures of the new ones
as he finishes them.
