My Furioso

Because my painting backlog is really weighing heavily on me, I decide to paint my furioso this past week.

Hats off to you!

Anyway, the front plate and claws are magnetized so I can swap them out. I have not yet finished the Librarian front panel but it can be swapped once I get done with it and the force weapon/arm.

It's funny but I've noticed a number of problems only when I took these pictures so if you see something weird/not done it's probably because I missed it when I painted the thing. Since I already put on my matte finish I guess I'm stuck with it.

These were painting using almost completely with GW paints which I found really nice to work with for a change. The model didn't turn out as grimey looking as I like but it does make a really nice red.

During the same paint session, I also decided to paint a librarian and a spare Vanguard Vet but they aren't done yet so no pictures yet.

Thanks for looking.

I have a furioso with the librarian front plate glued on ... and I'd love to remove it so I could magnetize the front plates but I haven't had any luck in doing so yet.  I'm afraid I'm going to destroy the thing trying to take it apart!

 

Yours looks very nice Spagunk!

 

Did you use plastic or super glue?

I used super glue.  To be honest, I'm unfamiliar with plastic glue.

 

Then you are in luck. Two methods to break that bond. 

 

1. Put the whole model in the freezer for a  couple of hours. Makes the bond brittle. Tapping works better than pulling.

 

2. Use a chemical like acetone or nail polish remover. This will instantly dissolve the glue. It will also dissolve paint and dry your skin, so apply carefully with a dropper bottle.
