Description
IMPORTANT! This set allows you to build EMPEROR SISTER WITH STANDARD.
Include 2 head options.
HQ resin miniature in 40k Heroic scale with 32mm Scenic base.
The miniatures require painting and assembly (use cyanoacrylate superglue only).
PREPARATION
1. Check
Firstly, check out all the details whether there are no missing or miscast parts.
If you have problems with details – please contact us.
Then, prepare warm water and clean each part with an old toothbrush and a dishwashing liquid to remove any excess mould release agent which may still be on the surface of the parts.
Please leave the parts to soak for a while before scrubbing if they feel very greasy.
We highly recommend not skipping this step!
Any mould release agent left on the model may prevent the primer from adhering to the model.
2. Casting Gates
The casting gates can be removed with a pair of clippers. Use a sanding pad, modelling knife or model file to clean off any excess.
In case gates are too large for the clippers, use a razor saw or piercing saw.
3. Mould Lines
Resin components are cast into silicone moulds that have split lines.
Sometimes, there may be slight lines on the model that shows where the mould joins together.
In that case, you should remove them so that they don’t show up after painting.
Please use a modelling knife or a file to carefully scrape or file away the line.
Then a smooth surface with some fine sandpaper if it’s necessary.
4. Warped Parts and Repositioning
Sometimes thinner parts could be slightly bent or twisted.
You can easily fix that by immersing the piece in hot water or by applying heat from a hairdryer.
The piece should reform to its original shape by itself.
If not, gently twist the piece back into position.
The amount of heat that needs to be applied is often determined by the thickness of the parts. Thicker parts need to be heated for a longer time.
This technique can also be used to bend some parts into shapes and positions to pose models.
We don’t collect any taxes or fees on your behalf, so you may pay the customs fees according to the law of your country while collecting the package.
Antoine –
Bought one few weeks ago, delivered yesterday and i will finish the last painting touch tonight. There is a few issue with the model who make me rate 3 stars :
The girl is OK, there is a lot of details, she need a little bit more attention than your regular Marines. Don’t glue the arm with gun before painting her and it will be allright.
The standard however… We got an heavy, massive icon who need to stand on a tiny, small and light mast. assembling them was just a nightmare, and I think they will broke not only if the model fall, but also if i would take her to a game (even with a suitcase with foam)…
2nd, the “flag” is way too torn. Painting something easy like a =I= is nearly impossible.
And at the end, the model is unbalanced. The Icon weight maybe the same as the girl, even flat area could be dangerous for her, I don’t want to think putting her on the edge of a hill… Think about putting some weight under the base.
So well, a nice and beautoful model, she will be nice around her sister, but keep in mind she’s a delicate one, especially near the mast. She would need some extra work and attention while moving her.
