When you are putting logos on the trains/cars that you are repainting, do you copy and paste an image from the web? Or draw it in?

Not being an expert, I find them on the internet. Try http://trainiax.net/medrawlogo.htm or Google for i.e. BNSF logo. Most of the time you get good results.

Yea, you are better off using pictures off the internet, due to it is usually from a real picture, or its a print, so the quality is better then if you were to try and draw it in (DEPENDING ON RESOLUTION). I would suggest copy and paste if you have small space to work with for the logo, mainly because you can resize a nice image smaller, and it will still look good from a distance, or inhanced on the model. You can choose to draw it in when you have a larger portion of the texture to work with, however, copy and paste here would be faster, and JUST AS EFFECTIVE.
