Archer Fire Extinguisher Decals

Looking for a way to pass another evening while waiting for Panther parts, I decided to add the Archer decals to the other four German tanks in my 'Garage' which had extinguishers mounted. It took 7 to get 4 mounted. I know why Archer gives you multipacks. These things are tiny and flimsy til' in place. One disappeared out of my fingers. It is probably on one of the dogs' tongues. Anyway, enjoy!

Good Morning!
Yes, I was apologizing to Phil the other day for my red fire extinguishers and fire axes. ;o) The kid in me. *chuckles* I've since started painting them the flat camo colors on the tanks and will add the decals from now on. It looks better that way and the kid in me is satisfied by the amazing detail on the decals.

Got Dag!, Mr. Shaun,
Yes indeed. *Foresees this conversation in my kitchen one day in the future* "Painless?, where are the dogs?" "Oh!, I pawned them to buy more Archer decals. I'll get them out of hock next Tuesday." :o)

Good Afternoon,
*Bows to his Shelf of Queens* JK! *laughs* My tanks do get run outdoors regularly through the bramble nonsense that passes for grass around here. I have to draw a fine line on adding details, for while I would love to have something as authentic as Jeff1101's Panther G build, I _know_ that every run would result in the loss of some precious, fiddly bit. The current Panther G that I am patterning on Jeff's build is about as close to precision mastery as I will get. These decals seem like a safe bet tho'. I haven't lost a fire extinguisher off of anything yet.
regards,
Painless Wolf
