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.
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! 😀👍
For the spray finish which one gives results closer to official Lego? I mean gloss or mat? Anyways this video is really helpful! I'm thinking about getting a commander for my purple clones but i don't want it to stend up too much compared to the others.
Thanks for the tutorial! I am getting a ton of free decals from a friend pretty soon, so I am glad I watched this. Also, is it 100% necessary to carve the hips? I feel Ike it might ruin the playability.
Its not neccesary but ive been decaling for a few months and most of the time if u dont carve the hips it makes it much more difficult to move the legs and most of the time i find the decal gets ruined.
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.
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
this very helpful but i have a question. i know that you can get av figures helmets on the av figures website but they are always out of stock so do you have any recommendation on where to get them?
@@SW_Bricks sure, I’ll send that once there made! Should I let them dry outside? And if so is it okay to do so in winter or will it damage the plastic?
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?
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..
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?
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
@@y3llowgrap371 well you might want to carve out the hips and carve the arm hole on the torso slightly. Now with the head, i don’t really know. Did you have the figure fully assembled when you sealed it?
can you use a brush-on water-based sealant like mod-podge??? I am new to decaling and just placed my first order on jonak and need some help, this helped a lot so thanks! but I don't have spray-on sealants, only the brush-on mod-podge, does anyone know if that will work?
Not too sure, I know there is a brush- on sealant but ive never seen it or tried it. Oh cool! Glad it helped! Hopefully someone can help give you an answer but im sure it'll work
I have recently been interested in decalling and this has motovated me
Bro I just ordered my first decals from Jonak, and this video couldn’t have been posted any later! Thanks!
OMG BRO I SWEAR I WAS JUST ABOUT TO COMMENT THAT

Great idea ill do that now! Thanks bud!
@@SW_Bricks can you do a video on the custom clone commando fives figure
Great tutorial! I probably won't decal, but seeing the process was Epic!
Ahah thats good! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the shoutout!
Anytime!
I didn’t know JB had a channel
@@baconbriqs I don't lol. I'm working on making one rn but itll be under a different name :)

If you’re in the UK blue Harvest
Man this has actually helped me.. even though I already decal!! Thanks man!!
Im glad! no worries!
Thanks for the advice to take the holes from the cloths and great job !
No worries that helps soooo much
YESSSSSS THANK YOUUU!!!!!!!! I WAS GOING TO BUY TOOLS AND STUFF MY FIRST EXPERIENCE OF DECALING!!!!!!!!
Awesome hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for showing us! Very neat video. They look sick
No problem 👍
I'm planning on making the lsw iii mission ambush with jek, thire and rys. This helps a ton
My decals and parts recently arrived so this video came just in time!
Ay thats sick!
For the spray finish which one gives results closer to official Lego? I mean gloss or mat?
Anyways this video is really helpful! I'm thinking about getting a commander for my purple clones but i don't want it to stend up too much compared to the others.
yeah I have no idea I have been wondering that too but I would assume mat?
This is awesome! Love these things and I have pretty much everything
Ah thats good!
really cool tutorial helped a lot!
Im glad it helped

Thanks man , this will really help in the future .
Awesome im glad!
You need to do some more detailing on stream plz
I will soon!
Thank you man for making this
No worries!
For my sealant rack I used a bunch of fake Lego I had and I gotta say it works better than I thought
I needed this video! Great time to upload! And great video! Also, do you need to carve the hips for Jonak decals?
Thanks for the information can’t wait to start decaling
Thank you. This Video was very helpful.
this seems like so much god dam effort
You are the best RUclipsr 😀👍👍👍
Thanks bro that means a lot!!
Just finished decaling bacara from av, but this is a great video
Nice thats sick!
If you could only get one, would you choose the citadel or the nail file. I only really want to get one.
This is very helpful, idk if I'll even get into decaling
I would recommend it its sick
i want to but carving out those legs, is just a stopper for me bruh xD
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.
Personally, I don’t really like 360 decals as it doesn’t really fit in with the vibe of all my other figures i suppose
:0 I need to try this!
Its so fun!
Lol I’m into decaling but I’m so lazy I’ve got like 20+ decals to do but only done 2 so far 😂
Ahaha I know the feeling!
I just saw the word "decal" and "Lego clones" and with instinct just pressed on the video.
Thank u so much for the help u earned a sub!
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
Wait does it *have* to be a blank torso? If it has print on it, will it show through the decal?
Already have the citadel moldline remover since I use it on my 40k models
this very helpful but i have a question. i know that you can get av figures helmets on the av figures website but they are always out of stock so do you have any recommendation on where to get them?
Ah yeah that is annoying, at the moment theres not really any alternative sadly
Clone army customs always has blank helmets never sold out
soon can you do a tutorial of a sort, or just your process you go through when doing an av figure ?
Yeah I guess I can do that! Keep an eye out!
Nicee
How much sealant do you put in order to seal and coat it? How many times too, only once?
Just a light spray for a few seconds! Go watch my how to seal decals video
This is great!
Is it 100 percent necessary to carve out the hips? Or will it ruin the figure if I don’t?
1000% necessary!
@@SW_Bricks alright, thanks! Could I ask you a few other questions?
@@destroyehstudios2107 Sure, if you wanna guarantee I see them then feel free to message me on instagram!
@@SW_Bricks sure, I’ll send that once there made!
Should I let them dry outside?
And if so is it okay to do so in winter or will it damage the plastic?
@@SW_BricksWhere can I get blank minifigures? Because the link in the description does not work for me.
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?

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
Any info on where to design/commission custom decals?
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?
Still afraid to do it... also don't think i have enough space for that...
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
where do you get the plain clone trooper p2 helmet
Message JB_brickshop on instagram!
thats the craziest hole puncher I have ever seen lol! Thanks for the tips!
Ikr it kinda scared me when I first saw it! 😂
@@SW_Bricks lol 😂
Did you have any problems with JONAK Toys
the link to the minifigs is to a random tiktok short, can you please fix it because i cant find plain white legs anywhere
I failed my first time so I hope I can do it now
You got this commando give it another go!!
do u hv any alternative for sealing figs coz where i live dont sell any sealant
Try amazon?
in bendle bricks ok to buy decals from
Do you have to use sealant on the figures?
Yes 100%
do you need the micro sol set, would you say its a need or would you say not to bother
It’s just extra if anything have the sealant
Nah you dont NEED it but id say if you want one then SET is more important but neither are essential!
Is there an alternative that I could use to the sponges like cotton balls or something?
How long do you soak the decals for
Hey man I was wondering with the sealant which one is better the gloss one or the matt one??
I've heard that glossy sealing fits in better with official lego figures
Where can i buy full white ,clean clone troopers without decals ? Please somebody help.
Did JB Bricks get suspended off Bricklink? I can't find him on it
Can you make a video step by step while you’re doing decaling
this is a normal paper?
Anybody know how long you should wait for the sealant to dry?
Just do 24 to be safe
Sw if u look at my newest video you'll see what I bought but what else do I need to do it?
What paper do they use?
Hi I'm going to start decaling what decals would you recommend 180 or 360
if ur a beginner i suggest 180s due to 360s being pretty complicated
Is sealant really needed or can you use decal fixer and decal softener instead? Because I can’t find sealant anywhere
YES 100000% needed
@@SW_Bricks oh I can’t find it anywhere
When ever I spray my figures, they’re always really stiff. Is there a way to stop that?
Are the limbs stiff?
@@jklmvideos7105 Yh and the head doesn’t come off when I put one on
@@y3llowgrap371 well you might want to carve out the hips and carve the arm hole on the torso slightly. Now with the head, i don’t really know. Did you have the figure fully assembled when you sealed it?
@@jklmvideos7105 no I apply the decals and put them on a stand similar to the one in the video the spray.
Thanks for helping
@@y3llowgrap371 yep no problem. I hope you can figure out the head/helmet issue!
This is soo vool
Hey do you know of any one who sells the equipment as a begginer set
Not sure.... Try looking on Jonak and thiccy's websites
I wish the shipping from wasnt so expensive, its 30$.... I wish it was like 10
i think ill just use my swiss army knife
I want to do this but I don’t have many clones and the tools. Also I’m still a kid so my parents would be suspicious if I ask for these
Umm is there any decals that are free...?
Coming from the gunpla community it seems pretty easy but my wallet seems to disagree

Never tried using brush sealant but I have a feeling it well peel the decals off
@@SW_Bricks thanks for the advice man!
@@subcult3329 yeah maybe rip :(
