Wassa Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I have some of the Vanguard units from Shadowspear, and I was hoping to replace the shoulder pads with the chapter shoulder pads. However the shoulder pads are part of a single model. I was debating about cutting it off, filing it down, and then putting a new shoulder pad on whats left using green stuff to help with the awkward surface to stick it on. Has anyone managed to do something like this?

Tichinde Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I did something similar with the inceptors from conquest magazine, with careful cutting and filing, leaving enough "shoulder" to stick the pad to, it is fairly straightforward. I will try and get a pic later.

Gederas Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I did, yes. It's a lot more difficult than the Dark Imperium Primaris I can definitely say that much.

Tichinde Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 one of them I had to use another piece of arm (got a bit over enthusiastic with my clipping) from the sounds of things, and looking at the sprues are they not the smaller "reiver" style shoulder pads? just take your time and you should be good to go. pics of inceptors: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355353-anyone-had-any-luck-replacing-shoulder-pads-on-shadowspear/#findComment-5298094 Share on other sites More sharing options...
