Ming Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Attached are my pix... Everything is constructed and primed. I may have to depaint and restart the Librarian - the metal parts seemed to be coated with some kind of material that has interferred with superglue jel curing. Keeps falling apart! More pix soon. Staying home in the blizzard to paint. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...&album=5702 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lestat Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 It might be the release agent from the molds which is causing your superglue problems. Try washing the model with some warm, soapy water and then re-glue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Styphus Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Or just pin the model's arm on. With a sturdy pin (I just use paperclips and they work like a charm) the arm hardly needs gluing to stay on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ming Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 More progress pix posted on my photo album for the LPC. At this point the Vendread and bike exceed the minimum standards, and the librarian has application of about 8 different paint colors, but is still much a work in progress. I have a photographer friend that I'll engage to do final clear, well-lit photos. Been asked to paint some additional libby's for a BA playuh. Will get those bookends done soon. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...&album=5702 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogluk Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I also find that if the glue has stood out in the air for too long in denatures some and will not hold well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ming Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 LPC 2011 Vow Complete. Venerable dread - done! Attack Bike - done! Librarian - done! See the album. Sorry for the BAD picture quality. I have a friend with a much better camera I might be able to have take some better pix. Until then, this is all you get... http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...&album=5702 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
