    1:76 Scale Tanks, any signs that can be used?

    Hi! I will be making a diorama of a WW2 scene with 1:76 scale tanks (from Airfix) and was wondering if there are any products out there that sell road signs, etc for that particular scale? Thanks!

    What theatre are you looking for? If you want European, it depends which country for the language but if you are looking for general military signs then they are more specialised. Russian ones even more so.

    These do some nice German road sign decals

      A tip to make your own signs that small is blow up a balloon draw your sign on it then pop it, it will shrink down really small it's ok as long as you don't want too complex signs unless you are good at drawing

        Have you been sniffing the Tamiya extra thin John???? Why not use a computer and printer lol. If I did the thing with the balloon, it would pop in the middle of the sign ..........

          Well I guess you could use a computer but just try the balloon thing they look really good, if you printed it out it wouldn't be as clear, and no I haven't been sniffing the Tamiya glue I prefer Revell it smells much nicer

            I just have to try this, I will steal a balloon from a child tomorrow and give it a whirl.
