If you want to print your own decals, listen up, eh?

Lately I promised to send some Corel files of the Austrian Sworl Camo pattern to somebody. Somehow I can not find hide nor hair of the details of this promise.

If you are the person, or anybody else here wants a copy of these files, contact me by email and put Sworl in the subject line.

[email protected]

I have both four and three color versions of the pattern so you can take your choice as you see fit. You can also use your choice of colors.

Here are some low resolution bmp copies not to any scale.





mIKE feeling generous.

Al,
You know as much about this pattern as I do. All I've ever seen this fabric was on some Albatrosssssss.

Mike the artist, not historian.

Well done Mike, i started doing this pattern a few months back, and after a few hours on the computer, thought i was getting somewhere, printed it out, and thought nah! colours just not right, so gave up, the decal paper didn't help much, just fell apart,
so might just be send you an email when i sort out some better decal paper.

keith et all,

I have used this decal paper for over ten years now with excellent results
using an ALPS Printer. I don't know anything about decal paper for
inkjet printers..

Just a happy customer, eh?

Mike
