DIECAST
AND DECALS
By:

Joe Schulte is the
proprietor of
Diecast and Decals . Joe's company has carved
itself a small notch in the diecast model industry by
making custom decals for just about every scale you can
come up with.
In my case I wanted
gold leaf lettering with a black back ground for my 1:16
scale Highway 61 Chevy C-65 Pumper; Joe's company came
through with flying colors. You can read a
full review of the original model by

I emailed Joe and let
him know what I needed to letter this model for the
"Edmond Fire Dept.". Joe went to work and designed
exactly what I wanted and emailed me back Acrobat
examples I could cut up and place on the model to get
the proper scale. Once I decided on the format,
font, and size, Joe printed the decals on high quality
decal paper and covered the decals with clear coat.
A few days later I
had the decals in hand. The decals were PERFECT!
I highly recommend Diecast and Decals if you have any
custom decals that need to be made and YES he does
white!
