Building an "I.S.S Enterprise" from the PL kit.

Okay, Plastic Modelers, I need some help here. I want to do an I.S.S Enterprise from the Polar Lights kit. Does any after-market decal company makes decals for the POLAR LIGHTS Enterprise? I know there some decals for other Enterprises, but I need them for the PL kit. I could also use some help regarding specific font types and sizes, just in case I have to make my own.

First off, which PL Enterprise model? If for the NX-01, you're in luck

You may be in luck if it's the Polar Lights TOS Enterprise, if you have an X-Acto knife and a steady hand to be able to cut the "I" from "Intrepid," the "U" from "U.S.S. Enterprise," and be able to fuse the "I" to the rest of that without it looking like shit.

(same with any "NCC-1701;" cut the "N" down to look like an "I," if you're up to it).

There's also a generic refit-era decal sheet on that site that you might be able to adapt, if you want an ISS Enterprise-A.

And, there's generic decal sheets for both TNG and the JJVerse as well. You might be able to adapt the latter for a TOS ISS Enterprise, since the lettering appears to be similar.
