I've been working.. slackers!

Working on getting some lines on the road.  I thought about painting them.. but I don't have a real steady hand.  So I made some decals and printed them on the alps.



for some reason decals don't like to stick to dusty spackle    ::) so I tried some diluted white glue and saran wrap.


followed by mucho dust..

Just have to sharpen my pencil and draw some cracks.

I thought about tape.. but those lines are really thin.. I tried tape,  then cutting the lines out with two exacto knives taped together.. but it didn't turn out very clean.

I don't think yellow marker would even show up..

Nein  :)  It was just to hold the decals down while they dried

What brand of cling wrap do you use? The two varieties I seem to buy either have to be pulled over 90 degree surfaces on all sides in order to stick, or immediately adhere to themselves after leaving the roll, before reaching the object to be wrapped. This brand that you can just set on things and it adheres sounds like gold to me.
