The superb decal sheets supplied by Dean, with his highly-rated Sherman Firefly kit, can be used for WW2 British armoured divisions and regiments- but not for armoured reconnaissance regiments- as the Tacsigns (Tactical signs/unit markers) are different.

Recce Regiments used these: The Squadron Tacsigns are white, whereas armoured brigade units used red, yellow and blue and green Incidentally, although I've posted the link before, there's a free pdf download of WW2 British armoured division markings available here:

Can anyone suggest any other possible sources of decals in 1/16 scale I could try?
So far, I've given my Comet and Firefly tanks suitable unit markings, thanks to Dean's decal sheets; but I'd really like to give the Cromwell a Recce unit identity.
I suppose I could paint the small frontal square green/blue and then superimpose white '45' numerals on it, as I have the numerals- but, I'd far rather use a transfer.
I know I've asked this before, but has anyone an idea of how to create one's own decals on water-slide paper, or an alternative print medium? All suggestions (apart from rude ones) welcome


Here's a Cromwell with the correct "45" (green over blue) Recce Regiment symbol, although the yellow circle should be white. If I have to paint the square's 'green over blue' background, has anyone an idea what those colours might be?
