I am with you here Wotto. I think the Indianna etc looks like crap. If Decals werent available, I could understand getting a airbrush kit, but texta's ? nahhh.
If you want a machine to look like new, or dramatically better, just re-decall it.
The Totan did look ok, but up against a redecal job, it would look awful.
Plenty of decal sets avail these days at a reasonable price.
