I have recently been interested in decalling and this has motovated me

SW I have an idea, seeing as you've made quite a few decaling vids now, maybe you should make a playlist so if newcomners ask how to decal or you make more decaling videos, you can have all of them in one place.

Ah perfect!! Good luck!

Getting some from blue harvest this video saved me as I’m a complete noob in this hobby so it’s great to know what tools and sites to check out if I want to get some new ones later

I’ve been thinking about starting decaling but I couldn’t find some of the materials such as : blank minifigs, and the decals themselves. This video helped so much! I’m definitely going to start decaling! 😀👍

Is it worth it to start recalling if you are a history geek getting into the clone wars I also an in school so it might be hard to balance time and will decals hold up in stop motion

Wait does it *have* to be a blank torso? If it has print on it, will it show through the decal?

actually i wanna know how long should i put the decals in the water, and if too long will they break apart? bc i wanna get some of these soon

I'm wanting to pick up a phase 1 fives from jonak toys but the arms are the only decals I would need for it would I still need sealant for it if it's only for display?

Nicee

This isn't the first time I've watched this video lol, hopefully I actually get round to decaling this time, just a question, when buying the plain torso from bricklink, do you get a fully white torso and add the black hands later as I can't find a white torso with black hands on bricklink? thank you

Any info on where to design/commission custom decals?

I have a question about the micro sol. Once you've applied the decal and sponged it after you then apply the micro sol do you then apply the sponge again or just leave the decal to dry for a bit? If so how long should I leave the decal to dry before I seal it?

Lol I’m into decaling but I’m so lazy I’ve got like 20+ decals to do but only done 2 so far 😂

Do you need to carve the hips? I know if you're using 360 decals, it's a bit more necessary. But I personally like the 180 ones, and I just feel like it'd ruin any playability for the figures.

My worry is that I slip and ruin it. I would be doing international shipping for the tools and stuff so it would cost around 30 dollars.. (or in my currency R600) so it’s quite a bit especially for like 3 clones in total..
