Legiocustodes Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 I’m still working hard to prepare both armies (Sisters of Battle and Necrons) to refight the White Dwarf 1997 battle report - Battle at Sanctuary 101 ! This week I have focused my efforts on producing a Cryptek to help lead my metallic killers against the Imperial usurpers... Whilst I’m pleased with how the model turned out... my enduring memory of this project is that Finecast is crap to work with!

Syward Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Looks very good. I think it came out very well. :tu: Whilst I’m pleased with how the model turned out... my enduring memory of this project is that Finecast is crap to work with! I can't agree more. Especially with that particular model. I got my son one for his Necron list and it's so badly warped and bent it looks like he's falling over on the base. I have a Finecast version of a Chaplain & the Emperors Chaplain too and man, I wish they were plastic. I think I'm going to have to replace the sword on the EC it's so badly warped. I wish GW would just make everything plastic and scrap the Finecast garbage.

Legiocustodes Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 It’s a very annoying material... especially as the white metal that it replaces was perfectly fit for purpose!!! I’m glad the battle sisters are still metal!!

BrotherEndcat Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Failcast is definitely not an ideal material but regardless, as usual custodes your model looks fantastic mate!

Legiocustodes Posted March 12, 2019 Author Share Posted March 12, 2019 This is true. I absolutely hate it. Any thing that is long and flat on a model is generally warped to un-usability Cheers mate! I’m glad you like him Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/354091-necron-cryptek-battle-at-sanctuary-101/#findComment-5274930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
