Hi Im new to this forum and the 40k hobby as well.

I purchased Canis wolfborn the other day and im struggling to put it together. it seems that no matter how i try to place the peices together they dont fit propperly and leave massive unsightly seems.

is there something i could be doing wrong or is it just a baddly made model? (ihope thats not the case as it wasn't cheap)

would anyone mind giving a few pointers on how to put it together?

cheers for any help.

i'd recommend posting a few pictures of the problem areas. depending on how they look, they can just be par for the course with large metal models or possibly a miscast. with big metal pieces, it's common to have to go back and fill in joints with putty (or gap filling glue if you're lazy like i was in 3rd edition!).

You need tofill it with greenstuff ( I had the same problem) but you also need to play around a little to see if its in the perfect position

Ok cheers for the advice. I can't take any photos, but Im convinced that i found the best placement I could. If i got only one joint 98% in the correct place with minimal gap then there would be amassive gap in the other side, so i had to find a medium. But still meant that there is a 1-2mm gap in places which is a bit dissapointing.

I will have a go with green stuff as sugggested, bit concerned as to how well I can blend the finish with the wolf fur.

but yeah cheers for the help
