Help with decals

[Guest]

Cheers guys. If the water isn't warm enough will it not work? I did have warm water but it might of cooled too much by the time I got to work? And cheers jens I'm guessing it's not out of date decals as it's not an old kit and it's more likely just be me being inexperienced at it. Only watched a couple of how to videos, will get better the more o try it I suppose, Practice makes perfect

It works with cold water too. It just takes a lot longer time. Like several minutes.
I often use cold water when I can't be bothered to go to the kitchen and fetch some warm water when I'm in a groove, and it works fine. Just be patient

Heres a few pics of the completed model if anyone's interested.


There should be the same decal on the back of the sidecar as on the front but that was the one I managed to destroy lol

Also not too happy with the gap between the head and beck of a couple of the figures! Needed filling in and I just forgot to do it

you can also use micro sol and micro set to hold the transfer in place, after you have soaked the transfers in water for 20seconds or so and when it dries it looks like you have painted them on use blue first then red. Wait till the blue is dry that's miro set , use micro sol that's like a varnish it holds the transfer in place for good.
