Sprues of letters and / or symbols?

[Patyrn]

Does anyone know where sprues of teeny letters and perhaps assorted symbols can be purchased? I want to put names on all my miniature space ships using actual bits not freehand writing.

I've not seen anything like that, but I'm sure there would be a market...

Wouldn't decals be OK? I noticed you said you didn't want to do them free hand so it doesn't matter if they're only "2D" ??

Decals are better than nothing, but the nice thing about having them be 3d is they can be highlighted and shaded to really pop.

Secret Weapon has these:

2mm Brass Etch letters

They've also got some other various things, so you might poke around there.

And I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that they're also available in the CMON Shop. Grab a mini or two while you're at it!

EDIT: HA HA! Beat ya!

Also, going back to Decals, I'd suggest Armorcast again!

I'm sure there are some plastic sprues of letters available but I can't bring the brand to mind I'm afraid... no real idea of the size(s) but pretty sure they are at least some that are good and small. Google may provide.

I think there may be some 3D decals of lettering too, Archer transfers maybe?

Best letters available are from Model Railway suppliers.
Used to make station nameplates, variety of sizes to suite the O, HO or whatever scale.

Good call. I could only find one manufacturer until I started search for model railroad letters.
