Super hot tip for college students. As we go into finals season try studying for half an hour and then taking 5 -10 minutes to add a detail to a batch of minis. Wash rinse repeat for about 6 to 8 hours. A wet pallet is an absolute must for this. It will give your brain a mental break so you don't burn out by using a completely different area of your mind. Improve your GPA and address your box of shame at the same time.

@PassengerOnTheMenu Жыл бұрын
@@cfv1984 hot glue globs and beads so it will NEVER lay flush between joined plastic or metal pieces. Like the model in the video, the only way to stick them together without bulging is to remove pieces or cut into them, damaging parts unnecessarily. You won't get a clean looking model and it will cover up details as the glue pushes out between the cracks. The bond between parts will never hold over time unless large amounts are used. Also, introducing heat to model construction with smaller parts made of material like resin will deform or melt them. Super glue is the best catch-all option and a relatively small bottle will cover building an entire army while being cheaper than HG gun, sticks and ruined minis.

A few years ago, a friend at the time gave me a big box of Skaven that he'd bought cheaply from a flea market, all badly painted and put together. I still haven't finished fixing up and repainting all of them. :) The Doomwheel was the only model I deemed completely beyond repair, it was just so caked in plastic glue that several bits of it had melted into blobs. It's just one of those models that's really easy to mess up.

I've talked to the guy who sent me this model a few times, I also have quite a few more of these minis that are absolutely covered in hot glue. His response when I asked him was that he didn't have access to the types of hobby stuff that we normally use, like glue and hobby paint. The paint I can understand, rural areas in Canada might be limited on supplies, and that's where the package I got came from, but, I'm not sure how one gets hold of hot glue as the alternative, but that's what he said. The other more likely possibility is that I was being trolled and he did it on purpose, but I really don't know lol
