Default PSII Nike Smoke Decal

I need to referbish my Estes PSII Nike Smoke model after nunmerous flights and a recovery from a tree. Does anyone have a good scaln of the original decal?
I have looked at Stickershock, but wanted to see if I could print then myself.
Thanks.

Chas

It's going to take some looking, but I think I can find my original to scan, and if you want the original, to send it to you. I bought mine with plans to turn it into an Estes Rogue upscale. Probably a winter project.

Was that decal waterslide or peel and stick?

According to Mike Caplinger‘s review on EMRR/Rocket Reviews it’s a water slide.

It is a water slide decal. I failed to clear coat the model and they are chipping of of the flat paint. Next time will use gloss white and dull coat the finished model.
I "thought" that I had scanned the original decal, but can't find the file.

Charles,
I have a set of decals. It was from a second Smoke I purchased when Estes was closing them out at a ridiculous price. Since I finished the first one in scale livery I decided to go wild on the second one. So never used the decals. Will post a scan below. Also you can have them at no charge, they will fit in a legal size envelope. Just PM me your address.

Thanks for the scan, BARGeezer. I will give it a try and PM you if I need the original.
I appreciate all of the responses.
