Fracking magnets, how do they work?!? - I've got some magnets on the way, but unsure how to apply them. I'm going to be using them to fit sponson/hull weapons to Leman Russ tanks. How would I go about attaching them?

Ogryns - I have one actual ogryn model, and some fantasy Ogres. And a lot of guard bitz. How would I go about making them look more sci-fi? I've had a suggestion to add track links to them as armour, and I've got some Ork Shootas kicking around for ripper guns.

Rough Riders - I want to do something a bit different with them than the old models. What should I use for mounts? I don't want to use bikes, as that would make them bikes and not cavalry. Maybe something from the fantasy lines?

I mean, umm.

Magnets:

I would mark each positive side with a black marker pen, so you can always tell whcih way to glue them. Then get a drill bit the same size as you magnets, and drill a hole. Then superglue one magnet in.

You can then allign the other side and glue that in. Just make sure the magnets attract - not repel.

Ogryns:

Do something like this!



Rough Riders:

Do this!
