You do know that it's entirely possible to play panO and not use a single space knight, right? (I mean, I've got an entire 40k army of space knights if I want to get all righteous on some xeno - I just prefer to leave the space opera out of my transhumanism.)
Oh I still had issues with my varuna when I put them together. Like the razor hacker. He is forever missing an arm. And I’ll probably have issues with svalarheima too when I get to the assembly. I am very behind putting it together.
I personally had no issues with the flag, but I still converted one to not hold the flag. I stuck the flag, waited and then glued the second layer of cloak.
If you're struggling putting them together it's probably something with your technique, let me grab my screenshot...
Ohhh, accelerant definitely weakens the bond. There's a correlation to curing time/bond strength. The main things to remember about acc adhesives (superglues) is that humidity and moisture are the catalyst to them curing and ambient heat also kicks it up a notch - and that once you open them, that clock starts ticking. Those small 3g tubes? A couple of days at most. After that, they are past their "best". I've had 29g/1oz bottles go off in a month in summer (even when I recap it) because of this. Keeping it in the fridge *can* help, but again, unless it's a *dry* fridge, the moisture WILL get in and your glue will go off anyway.
metal mini: why is that still a thing ? the only pro is when you use trad sculpting and CB drop that year ago (they had the best trad sculptor of the world in house, now they hire 3D sculptor) now the quality is so low that plastic do as good (better in printed resin), like KD or DUST last gen minis they choose quantity over quality so the next logical step is plastic just you wait
[Sarcastic Mode ON] Yes, it is evident that the quality of sculpting has dropped dramatically, anyone with eyes on their face can tell. Spoiler: Old = Good Quality Spoiler: New = Bad Quality [Sarcastic Mode OFF]
Their in house sculptor is Jose Luis Roig, who retrained to do 3D sculpting and still sculpts for them.
