Jonny Watson's Guide to Decals

[@DuncanFx]

Nice, clear video. Where was this for me in the 90's?! I've never like using decals because of a number of bad experiences with them. Probably why I do so much freehand nowadays, still. Thanks for sharing!

Good tips. I suggest getting Solvaset and ditch the micro set. Solvaset will melt the decal allowing better adherence to the surface. It does have a higher degree of expertise to work with.

Cheers mate. Nice tip I will look into it 😀

And for people wondering - almost any other surface other than a Space Marine shoulder pad is dead simple for decals. With flat surfaces you don't need Micro Sol, etc.

[@JonnyWatsonGaming]

I still use Micro sol on flat areas. It helps the give the decal the impression it was painted on. 👍

@@JonnyWatsonGaming I get the same result by putting down gloss varnish - then decal - then gloss varnish (to protect). Hit it with a simple matte varnish afterwards and it looks painted on.

I can depend on the decal itself too. Some 3rd party ones are rather thick so need sol/set or even a light sand. Even on flat bits.
