The dungeon-crawl continues.  Will Powers, Squirmy, Bonsai, and Professor Mora press on as they search answers to the mystery of these caverns far beneath the city of Rumi.  Oh, and Squirmy finds some new clothes.

SV Session 3.2

Again, my favorite line comes from Mike (aka Squirmy): “It’s like a really long fiber-optic camera . . . with a bad lense.”

In this episode of Figure Forge Matt Assembles the Hordes Dire troll 3 Model kit using rare earth magnets.   He shares his experience with you so  can avoid his pitfalls.

 

So What did Matt learn from this assembly?

  • 2 or 3 mm Magnets should be used for the arms
  • Have two part epoxy on hand  for the big wells on the arms

If I ever make this model again I will choose one head one set of arms and glue them on.   I would only make the spine and the hands interchangeable.

 

Thanks for watching, if you liked what you saw and would like to keep up with our post you can always like us on facebook and follow us on Twitter (links are on the right side of your screen).
