elmo Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Work has begun on the Nephilump with magnets being glued to fingers and drills running at speed. No blood yet but it is only a question of time ;) Truly it is like a Mechanicum workshop.. Photos to follow.

elmo Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Thanks brothers. Work has been continuing with the fixture of trusses inside the fuselage to locate the magnets for the different top/side sections. I should have finished the magnetisation by tonight then it will be sprayed this weekend and the painting will start in ernest next week. I will upload some wip photos tonight to show the magnet locations ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/260687-elmos-seemingly-constant-wip/page/22/#findComment-3933781 Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmo Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 The current state of play is that I am just about to glue the canopy on but before I do here are a couple of photos of the interior. Sorry for the poor focus but I only have a phone camera and no light box at the moment :( Work will continue and I will post some better photos at the weekend.

elmo Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 If you are sitting comfortably then I will begin This is the current stage of the magnetised Nephilump/Dark Talon and taking into account that I am treating myself to a long weekend now, it should be complete by the end of next week. On other news just got a box of Dark Angels Company Veterans for my next Company.

rdemings Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Elmo, what size magnets are you using for the neph/talon, and where do you get them? elmo 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/260687-elmos-seemingly-constant-wip/page/22/#findComment-3948347 Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 The magnets are N52, 2 x 1mm for the most part. The ones inside the hull and in the lower hull for the thrusters are 3 x 1.5mm. With this size of plastic and the small size of the magnets you need to use the N52 for the extra strength. I did a short write up in this thread about various magnets (AM forum but works for DA too) I get mine off eBay http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Spider-Magnets but there are other suppliers listed in the AM post. If you find any other magnet suppliers please let me know and I will add them to the tutorial.

egon1six Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I over heard a conversation today on my way to work. [Woman talking about Elmo's latest creation to her friend] woman1: Did you see how sexy that model is? Woman2: Yes I did!{giggles excitedly}, Did you see all his magnets?
