Games Workshop

[metalfossil]

Help Needed, please.

Does anyone put together and paint the Games Workshop figurines? My lovely (long suffering) wife bought me a metal ogre which needs assembling. I've tried all the glues I can think of and non of them work.

Any ideas?

[pow3rslave]

the figures are lead/white lead. superglue should work, if not games workshop stores (there's one in melbourne central, and a few more around) or games world should both stock a specialty glue.

i've done em before with just regular superglue, but they might have changes something since then

Quality superglue (ZAPor Flash, available from good hobby stores), or epoxy will stick em

the quality superglue holds and stays far and beyond $2 tarzan grip stuff, and is easier to work with

Thanks for your help fellas. I've gone out and bought some of the brush on super glue. Yep I've learned that all Tarzan's Grip sticks is the paper to the table.

Yes, I was into Warhammer for years and years. Was at Highpoint and I wandered into their shop and my wonderful wife bought me a Warhammer Ogre; still had all my old paints too

I'm assuming it's still in practice? one of the teachers at school used to have BATTLE SESSIONS after school OMG!! I almost feel like ripping out the ol chaos tank.. called the predator maybe?

[pow3rslave]

yeah predator is still in the game. i haven't played in ages but i go past a games workshop store in melbourne central all the time. they've changed the designs on a lot of stuff, some of it looks cooler, some lamer.

I never played the game, i thought it was boring, i just painted the minatures.

Me too, I used to love painting the minatures....oh, and of course playing Magic The Gathering

The boring is gone. New 5th ed rules rock. Going back to the not glueing thing, I now pin all metal minis now. Drill a hole in each part and insert a pin made fron a paper clip. Solid as from there on.
