Free Printables - Page 1 |
I have created these printables for you to use, from my own artwork. Click on the thumbnail to see the full sized item.
Hints. If they don't print as the right size from here, save them to your hard disk (right click and save as bitmap files - bmp - rather than as jpegs), open them in a graphics program and resize them. I give an indication of either the correct height or width next to each thumbnail.
See below to find out how to resize them for smaller scales.
Please - they are for your personal use ONLY and not for resale - but please feel free to use as many as you would like for yourself. Copyright belongs to me.
Some of them are large files, so may take a little time to download, but I hope you enjoy using them.
No printer? If you would like one of these printables, but don't have a printer, I will print them for you. Please send 50p for each one you would like, together with a suitable stamped, addressed envelope (no need to add extra postage, but please make sure you have put sufficient postage on BOTH envelopes) and send them to me.

Here is how to resize a 1/12 scale printie to 1/144 without needing to use a graphics program. You do need to use Word, though, but most people have this.
1. Open a new Word document.
2. Right click on the printie you want to reduce and choose Copy.
3. On your Word document, right click and choose Paste. Your printie should appear.
4. If you have copied something direct from the web, you may find that you need to right click on the printie, choose Remove Hyperlink, then click OK. You probably won't need to do this if you have copied something that you have already saved into your own files.
5. Right click on the printie and choose Format Picture.
6. Click on the Size tab.
7. Make sure that the Lock Aspect Ratio box is checked. (It normally is).
8. Pick either the Height or Width measurement and divide by 12. Enter this number into the relevant box.
9. Click OK.
10 Your printie should appear in 1/144 scale. ready to print. But as I said, you can add lots of printies to the same sheet before printing it out. .
And of course, to reduce to 1/24 scale, you only need to divide by 2, and to reduce to 1/48 scale by 4.
