Hi dudes, and hi opin as well : )

I wana ask, how'd you guys assemble together metal kits? Do you pin them or use the 2 part epoxy glue? if pin is better got any recommendation where to get a cheap n good pin vice?

 

[halocast]

cool stuff u all got there

 

[Spindoc]

Hey Spindoc, for FW orders, how long and how much is the delivery time and costs to Singapore?

Well i ordered it through my friend because there were a bunch of people sharing orders so the shipping is cheaper. It takes round 1-2 weeks to arrive.

Well the way i do is to

1) Pin it using a pin vice ( the pins you can use paper clips)
2) Glue with super glue ( i used Zap A Gap but even your normal Selley's super glue is good enough)
3) Fill up the defects with greenstuff (your 2 part epoxy).

Pin vise can be gotten at most hobby shops. I tried looking for them in the hardware/DIY stores but i don't think they stock those.

What kind of paint you looking for?

 

[lapislazuli]

just starting this hobby a week ago, have been thinking of it for 2+ years already, finally got the time to start (ORD loh).

these are my space marines. i'm making ultramarines 3rd coy. they look too bright and bland as my camera flash is too strong :/

i still dun have alot of colour paints, and i tried drybrush-highlighting but failed horribly. once my order paint arrives i'm gonna try extreme highlighting instead. hopefully it will turn out better.

Hey dudes, sorry i could'nt post anything yet, busy with exams! anyways i ordered a tyranid Battleforce and a Hive tyrant from Maelstrom too and excited bout it!

Hey lapislazuli, those marines look awesome! i wanna see more of your stuffs too : )

 

[Spindoc]

I have been busy and will be busier for the next 5 months so wont be able to do much painting...

[xinng7]

Nice work as always Spindoc.

There's a rumor going around for more than a year that there will be a new army for fantasy.

And recently on Warseer, the new race is rumored to be Cathay!

Calculate from the 2nd email they sent to you, roughly take 1-2 weeks time.
