Lovelylovely magnets [Arrived, Marc happy]

Posted by

messyart –

Ordered a fuckload of 4mm magnets on ebay a week back, finally got them through the post.

As beautifully powerful as you'd expect, and only 1mm thick :3
I know, hardly the most thrilling thing to post.
And guess what? In case you've spent your life trapped in a well, I have photos of them so you know what they look like!

I am tempted to sell some off to people who could do with some.

Fantastic!
The arms move and get blown off!
Are magnets used much with figures. You're greenstuff modification makes it look quite easy. Was it?

I think they are quite popular among those who can get hold of them, they're bloody handy.
This guy has a few options available now I have these magnets.
He's also come on some way since this couple of photos...

With Greenstuff, I tend to just think 'If you know what you want, the only hard part is getting there'
As in, if you've planned ahead, the only challenge is time.
I had to chop away ALOT of the front of the body [Which was not easy] but once that was away, the rest.. Pretty much fell together [Granted, with the help of some metal mesh to get the right shape for the sarcophagus, which, still isn't exactly 'right'].

So.. No, it's pretty easy stuff once you get used to it.

Sadly, pics won't be too helpful D:

Unless you want to see less magnets in my collection >.<

Or more of the dreadnought, or the minigun I'm making for my Nurgle.. thing

Im glad their working for you as they do for me.
Mark Renalds found them, when he was running the club in Trowbridge.
I use them on my terminators as they have enough body to fit them in.
My Inquisitor has now multi arms to suit the battles ahead.
M/R used them on the Tau very successfully.

Happy gaming mate Mark

Oh they are beautiful. I've used them on my dread so I can switch out two different close wombat arms, as well as three different armaments.

Speaking of
I really fuckin' love this dreadnought..

No laddy, I made a typo and just wondered how the hell I did it, so kept it there.

I DEMAND CLOSE WOMBATS

Well Mark, he is going just.. Beautifully
I have new photos, actually. I might go post them obnoxiously in a new thread :3
