Looking for decals, please help.

[Deadman Disciple]

Hi guys, im about to start work on the Tamiya Newman-Haas 1993 Indycar as pictured below:-


Do any of you know of where I could get some racesuit & helmet decals (Nigel Mansell) for a figure to put in the driver seat?

I have searched on google with no success & the only Nigel Mansell racesuit & helmet decals I could find are his Williams F1 ones, I have managed to recover a 1/18 figure from one of my old diecast f1 cars (which was really old & damaged) & im hoping with a little surgery could fit inside this model.

I have found 1/20 driver seated figure but they cost as much as I paid for the indycar (£33) & the mansell f1 decals on top of that which could cost £11-£15.

I have a printer, but I cant find the template & I have not got the confidence to print them off with good results.

Cheers in advance.

Good new guys,

Ive managed to find a set of decals for the indycar with helmet decals for Mansell.

Big Phil over at Britmodeller forums managed to find a couple of links for sale.

Hobbylink Japan, but they are on backorder for 6 weeks.

A Czech based model website that has them in stock & cost £13.40 with free postage to me in the UK.

Ive had to buy the whole set, but at least I will have spares if I screw up & it looks like there are a few extra decals that are not on the original Tamiya sheet.

Cool. Thanks for the update.
