Curiously,saw in HobiMax once that RG stickers are both water and normal stickers (like a hybrid). You just put a little water and just apply them?

You just put a little water and just apply them? realistic decal in RG is a combination of foil sticker and clear/transparent sticker  and yeah can put in water for about 5 sec and slowly apply on surface using cotton bud This post has been edited by nazrul90: Dec 17 2011, 02:57 PM

the purpose of dipping clear stickers in water is to reduce the stickiness, so u can adjust the position of the stickers properly then use cotton bud to press down so all water is absorbed out n the sticker will stick on as it shud

Does anyone know whether I can apply decal on Extended MSIA Sazabi? If yes, should it be 1/100 scale or 1/144 scale? Coz I know Extended Sazabi is quite big.

I don't think it's gonna be a problem to apply decals on that. the only concern is the scale.. from what I know, MSIA are 1/144th scale, but I've seen review saying that this particular "extended" Sazabi is a non-scale, "slightly taller" than normal MSIAs.. so it might be tricky to make the decals looks decent comparared to its size.. 1/100 MG Sazabi is well known for its huge size, so to be safe I'd suggest go on with 1/144th scale decals

Thanks for the advice. Do you know or anyone know where can I find 1/144 decal for Sazabi? I search a few online site and but cant find them.

Something like Robot Damashii. yup. pretty much so. but MSIA's proportions are true to its original design, while RDs looks a lot more sleek.
