Hi everyone,

I need a bit of advice. I'm wrapping up a few faller buildings for my 4'x8' test layout, and unfortunately for my plans they are the type with one or two sides that are just plain plastic- meant to be lined up next to other buildings.

Since I'm using these as standalone structures, I'm trying to make them look good and do something with the plain side. In the US you can easily obtain decals for billboard-type ads that would be painted on the sides of old warehouses or downtown buildings.

Do such decals exist for european themes or ads? I don't even know where to look so advice is appreciated!Even the american ones I've looked at aren't quite generic enough- I found a good Coca Cola one but its in english...

Thanks for any tips or directions to search in!

John,

Here is another source in Germany. www.Gleimo.de has a very wide collection of papter models that you can download for a FEE.
However, every month he offers a free download in Z, N, TT, & HO scales. Here is the link for this month's building. He does change it monthly and this link probably wont work in November but if you go to his website everymonth you can get a very nice collection.
Scroll to the bottom of the page and select your scale.

www.gleimo.de/download/032010/dl032010.php


Enjoy,

Robert
