I was impressed with the Archers transfers selection on their website one thing though seems almost all the transfers only went up to 1/35 scale while our tanks are mostly 1/16 scale.
Now on looking at the DAK 1/35 sheet of insignia (palm tree)they seem to be different sizes and I’m wondering if say the largest ones might work say on the front /rear of my PZ III?
Or is there a 1/16 scale section I haven’t located yet.maybe in their printed catalog.

Hi Ragner,
Search for peddinghaus decals, they have lots of 1/16 sets including the dak palm tree insignia you are looking for, hope this helps
Cheers, Lee.

Good morning Lee,
I have used the Peddinghaus decals and find them wanting, the paper and film are on the thick side and as for the DAK palm tree insignia a bit like a jigsaw puzzle ,here in the states I’ve been use to Microscale and Champ decals both use thin film paper and transfer film. Unfortunately champ went out of business a few years back leaving Microscale,also they deal mainly in railway related decals. In h.o and N scales...way to small for our applications.
See where Archer has 1/72 1/48 and 1/35 scales and a very few 1/16 scale decals and was hoping maybe they had others I had not yet found.

Keep Lobbying Archer - right now they don't see 1/16 as worth their time due to the small market, but they kick everybody elses ass in terms of quality.
