Data is Knowledge, Knowledge is Power


 

Hi folks,

 

As part of my add-ons units from Imperial Agents, I have been planning for a while dealing with an Inquisitorial Retinue. A pure Fluff reason is lying underneath as I do not really see any tactical benefit atm; yet from a narrative approach it is a nice touch: a AdMech Exploratory Fleet that as not so tight bounds with its ForgeWorld and may be suspiciously looked at because of some possibly heretek behaviours and personalities in its ranks. May it be enough for a close monitoring by Ordo Xenos or affiliated Ordo Minoris such as Ordo Machinum?

 

I do not have enough models yet to build up a 6 men strong retinue as I lack a Gun Servitor. I might go without yet and stick to 5. I neither have enough model to go to a 10 or 12 men strong retinue as I (still) lack Gun Servitors plus 2 additional models (but a house Greim advisor might do hit, or any other Necromunda Hired guns; unless I convert some from spare GSC cult bodies, which is not necessary my fav option but, let’s admit it, probably the more likely one…)

Now, the newly added members are an Infocyte and an Infotek. Indeed monitoring (spying from within) AdMech Priests might require very specific, accurate and advanced Information Technology related skills. Just connecting your dentrites to AdMech datastack is already putting you at risk…

Here come the models, mostly following the paint schemes one can find on GW sites:

The Infocyte Dendrite has been uneasy to glue. It still has an odd angle due to various breakdown I have repaired as I could. This Superglue looks like it has no intention to glue resin but fingers only... The Infotek and his hoovering chair is mostly a metal color dry brushed on a black base coat. Details and skin tone add contrast, but it is really a quick and dirty model to be painted. Almost zero skill required.

That is all for this sub project within Imperial Agents for the moment. I still have to find some alternatives for the Gun Servitors and the missing henchmen. Once solved I will resume.

 

See you folks.

Looking good. Did you wash the models before washing or do you think your superglue turned bad

I always wash and brush the resin models.

But I suspect the formulation of the Loctite glue I am used to buy has changed. I do use the gel range and it now stincks less cyanoacrylates. Liquid range is still good though. But even if the result is better with liquid range, it is less practical to use... Yet solidity of the bonding with the gel also looks like it is weaker now. Than in my memory.

I have noticed my super glue stops becoming effective a lot faster than before. I wonder if the entire industry changed the formula.

Strangely enough, my cheap 3M/Scotch glue still works the same.

I have tried some bio based formulas and finally gave these up. The cheap Ceys was doing the job, but this brand is not available where I head now… Back to Loctite. But I might give a try to the brands made by my company maybe? I will work on my corporate side too…

I'm agreed gel loctite dropped inequality pretty much. Still use liquid one. What's brand you make?
