Default Astron Sprint decals

Is anyone currently offering a reproduction of the decals for the Astron Sprint? (not XL)
I?m surprised that Tango Papa/CMR does NOT have it.

They are available from Tango Papa/CRM, except for the fin meatball.

I thought that meatball was on one of the kit names sheets, but no.

I have a set of the 1970 Sprint decals and the 1971 onward (Astron Sprint meatballs). I'll have to scan and clean them up in Photoshop if files will help you.

I don?t have the means to print decals, yet.

Understood. I've attached a scan of the 1970 meatball decal anyway, hoping that another more talented member can redraw it. This is one of the worst decals from a kit that I can remember.

Jeff,

Do you know if CRM will print decals from user supplied artwork?

Gordon Agnello (Sandman on this forum) may possibly have an updated version of the artwork for these Sprint meatball decals.

Kind regards,
