I am Legion Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Redhorse- ive had those helmet wing bits laying around for a long time and really wanted to use them. But wait till the sergeant is assembled and hopefully that will change your mind :D Squirrelloid- i use a tiny magnet (cant recall the size) that fits into the hand nicely and another where the grip goes on the special weapon. It fits perfectly without affecting the integrity of the gun :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It fits perfectly without affecting the integrity of the gun I also have really tiny magnets - been experimenting with magnetizing predators - i'm just not sure they're tiny enough for wrists. (And my dremel tool doesn't have a drill bit small enough, nor do i have a clamp suitable for, working on such a small surface). Also not sure about size, I'd need to check. But as long as I'm asking questions about magnets, do you really need 2 of them for jump packs/back packs? One magnet can hold the whole turret gun on the turret of a predator for me - i was thinking I'd just cut the nub off the marine's back and use one in the jump pack / backpack and one on the marine. There might be a slight rotation issue, but I can think of non-magnetic ways to solve that, and it doesn't require drilling holes in anything. Of course, I haven't actually tried to do it yet...

I am Legion Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 Just get a regular model hand drill with a tiny bit. The magnets really are tiny. 1/16 or 1/32 i think. I cant remember but they're tiny. And yeah i do the double magnet to stabilize it on the model and it also lets me pick it up by the backpack without me worrying the body's going to drop. But if u have another way then ya please let me know. Doing 2 holes at 1/8 is a nightmare on the back!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelloid Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I'm using 1.5 x 3 mm magnets (that's depth x diameter). So, that's, uh... 1/8 inchish, i think? I can't imagine using smaller magnets. Would drive me nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am Legion Posted June 24, 2013 Author Share Posted June 24, 2013 Ok, so I've been really busy with life, but I managed to get some more work done on the tactical and DC unit. They are almost Done (thank Jeebus) but there is still much work to be done. I am hoping to get these done in the next month. Oh and yeah sorry about the bad pics. Hopefully next time I take a photo, it will be a bit more proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jønke Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Great looking angels. I like that you keep the 2nd edt paint scheme with the Black trimming and the blue blooddrops, pretty mutch the same way that i paint mine. You just do it alot better. Really good poses aswell. Can just imagine them purging xenos from the top of a Building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
