For me, one of the worst things about sticker decals is that the way you have to pick them off the sheet. This is fine for larger decals, but the countless tiny ones will inevitability get flung off into the great unknown and lost forever. Then again, maybe that's not such a bad thing, because it's what convinced me to bite the bullet and buy some waterslides.

As someone who loves Real Grades, this video is a god send

Matte coat over decals, expecially after your trimming tip, will pay in spades to blend them into the piece.

Very interesting, thank you for sharing this. I started building Gunpla June of last year and I learned that sticker decals is really a challenge, well my skills is novice I have to sat but this is very helpful

Nice tutorial! I'm probably going to try this out when I paint my kits or accept that I am never going to paint them :p

Oh that seems pretty useful!!! Definitely gotta try this later! Thank you so much~

Man...i cannot thank you enought i was a lot in fear in many operation of gunpla but thanks to your vidéo it help a LOT

I’m fortunate that my GF has a CRICUT machine so I can clean cut custom vinyl decals but to begin my first KIT build I’ll be sure to use your technique! Your beginners guide basically got me into this new hobby, so thank you (my back account hates you) keep up the amazing content.. (my first build is going to be the HG X42S Destiny and seeing how that goes I’ve got the MG RED FRAME ASTRY !! Wish me luck

I will DEFINITELY be trying this technique on my upcoming kits. In the past I tried using an extra-sharp hobby knife to basically slice the border of the sticker that stuck out. Bandai, why you make stickers that have backing parts that stick out over edges?! Anyway, I have a feeling this method will be MUCH easier than what I was doing. Can't wait to give it a whirl!

This video is a godsent. I opened up my master grade Ginn and was immediately disappointed with it having sticker decals. You are a saviour.

I know it’s been a long time but i thought i just need to share this to everyone i used a small clinical scissors super sharp and cut the sticker that i want then cut the edges before i apply without taking it out of the green paper back. and the results are amazing until now is still there and looks like water slide to be honest. hope it helps

I'm building my first ever model kit again (the RG amatsu Mina) and its my plan to improve it as much as possible so its the masterpiece 15 year old me wanted it to be. This is definitely going to help me upgrade those ugly decals. Thanks!

Looks good, but I think you have way more patience than me. I'd rather get the waterslides, which I try to order whenever I order a kit so I have them by the time I need them.

I've only built two kits with these kinds of decals so far, but halfway through the first one (rg unicorn) I got annoyed and got a pair of tiny precision scissors that I think were intended for eyebrow or eyelash trimming. I'll take the decal I'm applying off the sheet with my tweezers and trim the edges with the scissors before applying them, which has worked pretty well so far. Currently doing this for the rg crossbones, but I ordered some waterslides for most of my backlog

Good tip i use decal scissors to trim them.

Omg i love that Guy

That’s an absolute unit of a haro

I find using nose hair scissors easier. Small tip, sharp af, accurate under a magnifying glass.

You could simply use a Ruler to cut straight,also the ruler will keep the sticker decal in place in the cutting process

Wish I saw this before stickering my rg 00

Do you apply coating over the sickers?

A question… Why perforate the stickers instead of just trimming the edges of the stickers down to the design as closely as possible before putting it on the kit? That’s essentially what you’re doing when you remove the perforated section after applying the sticker. This cutting the stickers down beforehand just saves a step or two. Or is there another reason for the perforation that I’m not understanding?

Absolutely nice dude now I can make my decal look instead of them looking like shit

Bandai decals are so bad, even lego stickers are cut more closely to the print or to fit exactly the part.

Hey! had seen this video like a year ago, finally applied it on my very 1st Sticker application ! Funnily enough, on a MG Providence Gundam (really following the guide to letter XD) any plans for new vids?

What happens if I top coat matt after?

NGL you looked like Bors the Shashlik King in this video XD

Question, can't i just smear the sticker with glue to prevent it from ever peeling off? Granted, not all glue may work, my first thought was super glue (cyanoacrylate or something) or acrylic cement

@YouSeeGundam

3 жыл бұрын

i wouldnt recommend glue, what you should do to seal in your decals is give your kit a nice topcoat. this can be achieved with either an airbrush and clear coat paint (there are many types that work well so you can pick what one you want with a little research) or rattle cans work well too. tamiya makes official branded topcoat cans but i've gotten satisfactory topcoat results with a rattle can of Rustoleum 2x clear

planning to do one relatively soon. I just need to get better with tamiya panel line accent before i feel comfortable teaching anyone

I despise waterslide decals now, especially after applying them all on my MG Wing Gundam Zero ver.Ka. The whole process took me 5 heckin' days (5hours each), not only because there were over 150 of them but also the decals ALWAYS PEEL OFF after i stick them on. I kept on sticking them back on with the hope that the top coat will keep them in place, but it didn't. Now my kit becomes untouchable since it has those cursed decals all over ít body and if i hold my kit in the wrong place, the decals end up sticking on my fingers. Also, if i can't touch my gunpla, what is the meaning of the dynamic articulation, the hatch opening or the transforming gimmick ? I'm pissed as the item that comes in the box, doesn't work on the kit itself. This experience really helps me appreciate sticker decals and dry transfer is the best option to me now. Reply if you have the same problem with me. Thanks 😃

I agree dude! Water slide decals are better for blending in and looking nice, but if you actually want to play with and TOUCH your gundam then they're the worst. I got them on my MG Astray Turn Red, and they're such a hassle just for them to fall off later. Dry transfers are my favorites since theyre tougher than waterslides, and much easier and more convenient to apply. Contrary to everyone else, I actually like the sticker decals since theyre easy to place, even if they do have a tendency to peel off after a while
