The inner harness assembly, the floor and doors and the engine/fin assembly. We're going to build three sub-assemblies. Once I have everything ready, then I start building. I've found it easiest to clip everything from the sprue and take care of all my mold lines. This project requires 13 magnets when all said and done. I've got a 1/8 drill bit that I use to create the perfect size hole for the magnets to rest comfortably in. I use 1/8 inch rare earth magnets for my work. If you're magnetizing this, you'll need a few more things in addition to your clippers, files and glue. Start out by making sure you have all your pieces and your tools. The construction of this is designed to allow easy painting of the final three sub-assemblies so that you can get into all the tight spaces fairly quickly and easily with the last step being to glue the three components together. The follow up to this post will be the painting of the same pod. While it's presented in the order you should do things, there is some room to move things around and depending on what tools you have available, you may need to do just that. Make sure to read through the whole thing before attempting it though. You can skip the magnetizing parts and still use all the info here to build your pod.īelieve me, reading this before you attempt to build your own will help you out tremendously.
This tutorial covers the basic construction and magnetizing of the doors and both weapons for the drop pod. Magnetizing is an added benefit, not necessary, but definitely nice to do. There are a few things you need to know before you put glue to plastic. Since the paint scheme is so loud I went with a subdued look for the base, some mud, snow and weathering powers.If you've never built one of these before, you owe to yourself to do some research before you get underway. I want them to stand out and look evil and chaotic.
the level 1 with staff so he has a good magic missile to chuck out and when they get in combat wildform FTW!Īnd the chariots are chaff killers and at only 500 points there shouldn't be much I can't chuck two chariots into and not make a mess.įor the paint scheme I didn't want to go with the usual brown and after having a dose of common sense and deciding to not do them white I went with purple. I went with the big block of Gor as it gets me through a big chunk of the painting. I have used this as an excuse to finally take the plunge and do another WHF army and for my sins I chose beastmen.īray Shaman - Staff of Daroth, Lore of BeastsĢ5 Gor - Standard, Musician, Additional Hand Weapons So we have started a local escalation league, the idea is you start building and painting a 500 point army, then add to it to make it up to 1000, then 1500 etc.
