About Archer Fine Transfers:
Archer Fine Transfers is well known in the modeling community for producing highly accurate transfers of excellent quality. Although they have some traditional water-slide decals available, their primary product line is dry transfers. Dry transfers are are markings that you don't have to use water to apply, but instead you gently rub them on with a blunt tool or object, when they are dry.
The benefit of using dry transfers over water slide decals is that dry transfers are usually more realistic in appearance because they appear painted on like real vehicle markings. This better appearance is due to the transfers not having excess carrier film and also being generally thinner than water slide decals so they snuggle down and hug the object better.
Decal Specifications:
Human iris water slide decals suitable for figures from 54mm to 150mm. Five different colors, shaded or unshaded and with or without white hot spots. Diameters include: .028" (.7 mm), .033" (.84 mm), .038" (.97 mm) and .044" (1.12 mm). Enough to do 200 figures.
How to choose the correct size Iris for your figure
Complicated Overview
The human iris is
about
.55" (13-14mm) in diameter, but different sculptors sculp the eyeball differently and at the smaller scales even the slightest variation can be troubling. It makes no difference how open the eye is, the width does not change, so to determine the correct diameter of the iris for your particular figure, measure the width of the eyeball and divide that dimension by 2. In other words, if the width of the sculpted eyeball is 4mm, the correct size of the iris should be 2mm.
The Simple Solution
To eliminate the tedious measuring and guess work, Archer had introduced individual sheets of irises for specific scales from 1/35 to 1/4 scale. Choosing one of those will,
in 99% of the cases
, be correct. If you cannot find what you need there, here is a list of iris diameters found on the following sheets. If you do not see the exact size you need, use the next larger size.
Bigger is better.
