Mitch is right. It's all in the surface prep. If you dope the tissue or using Krylon Acrylic sealer the decals will stick. Most of the time. Sometimes they peel off anyway. In that case, I rub a little UHU stick glue on the model and press the decal back on.
Again, like Mitch said, photocopy the decal onto some tissue paper and cut out the part you want. Stick glue that to the model.
Takes more time, but looks really nice.
Something you could experiment with, I never tried it on tissue models, is Microscale's MicroSet. It helps decals adhere to plastic models very well.
