Finally got the three larger heads secured to the knights. First time using third party resin parts that need to fit into GW plastic. Not easy but not overwhelmingly difficult. I am grateful for Gorilla Superglue though. I think these three will be my main battle knights for this army going forward. I like the personality they seem to be taking on with these heads, or maybe it’s the superglue fumes talking to me.
Digging deep into the strata of my “pile of shame,” I pulled out one of my older partial projects to revive and hammer away at. I have hopes of a lance of my own house ‘Aegyptus’ and two free blades that I think will be a Green Knight and a Black Prince archetype.
First, I need to finish building and do a couple of simple modifications. I started out long ago wanting to magnetize just about everything I could on these knights, but now I’m thinking to do a minimum amount of magnetizing just to have a couple of options for this army when we finally see what 11th edition will bring.
Time does have a way of getting away from me.
It’s been a while since I’ve updated here or even glued my fingers together. I hope to have more updates and glue and paint flowing soon.
I know some people would just hit them with a blast of primer. I’ve very rarely ever been able to do that myself. There’s always something nagging at the back of my mind that I didn’t spray on clean plastic. Just one of my many foibles. I’ve found for me LA Totally Awesome cleaner does the trick very well.
I first heard of using it from a YouTube channel eBay Miniature Rescue. I had been using Simple Green and a small sonic cleaner to clean my miniatures with, but after trying LA Totally Awesome cleaner it’s the only stuff I use now.
Free of the old paint and primer, these grey Berzerkers are waiting for a new coat of paint and new skulls to take for the Skull Throne.
After family tragedies and a heck of a year on top of that, I’m trying to ease back into painting. I found some Second Edition 40k Chaos Marines for a really good price and thought some good nostalgia would help. Getting some paint on these as soon as I clean them and dig out my old paint scheme from “back in the day”.
