I just cant figure out how to do these metal to metal bonds!!! arrrghhH!!!!
Also after i finish painting my models should i go over it with a clear finish to make sure the paint stays on or should it be fine?
And i am going for some sand tyranids, any one have any experience with using real sand on terrain and models? is it a good idea to glue real sand on a model? |
1) Metal on Metal = Pinning. Get a small pin vice and pin the pieces together. Its the best way to get a great bond between metal pieces. You can use simple materials to pin the pieces like paperclips (thats what I use at least.)
2) yes clear coating any piece you do is a good idea. It will protect the finish greatly. Testors dull coat is what I use. Little pricey though. There are other brands like armory and GW for example.
3) When you say glue on the model. Do you mean the base of the model or on the figure itself. If you mean the base, yes I have and yes I use good old Elmers glue.
Hope I was of some help.
