These tactical marines were rescued from what can only be described as a thick double dip in red paint.
They were also assembled with hot glue.
They will now join the ranks of my Iron Hands project.
As someone who has spent a fair bit of time recently stripping and repairing a few eBay baragins, I admire your dedication.
Thanks, most of the stuff I work with these days is secondary market (ebay, Kijiji, marketplace) so I am getting very adept at salvage work.
What psychopath uses hot glue for miniatures??
There’s a lot of people who have never worked on miniatures before and don’t know any better.
My father was into wargaming and model building, so I had a good resource available to me as a kid. Not everyone has that.
Not sure, but I have two landraiders put together the same way.
They literally fell apart when I stripped the paint off them.
Are they any ‘before’ pictures? Sounds more grotesque than a squad of plague marines.
Sadly no, I didn’t think to do that until after they went into the isopropyl.
