Speaking of weird and useless decals, does anyone have a cleaned up scan of the Estes "Peace Sign" decal?

I cloned a National Aerospace Plane using the Raven as the nose cone donor. Poor thing had been treated brutally in its past life. The only truly salvagable thing in the kit was the decal, but I managed to get the nose cone beaten back into shape.

Yes, it is. Thanks. I've been wondering how to get one of these since I noticed the decal on the built Mini Bomarc I Ebay'd a while back.

One thing: The "flesh" color is taken from the background on the Mini Bertha decal sheet. I don't know if this was intended to be a color on the actual decal. It may have just been a black outline on an otherwise clear decal. I left the color in, as I think it makes the decal look better. If you need just the outline, change that color to white before printing it.

I touched up the nail area with a darker shade, just to highlight it.

Craig...
