Hey all, so as my magnets are just coming in, I'm preparing to magnetize my Daemon Prince (mainly wings, arms, and head). I have a general idea of what I want to do for the wings and head but don't know how to approach magnetizing the arms as they are not flat surfaces. I would prefer not to use green stuff but if I had to, then so be it. For the wings I'm pretty much going to hope 1/8" magnets will be enough strength to stick and for the head I was thinking of using a ball magnet to replace his neck and place some sort of thin metal in each head crevice so I could choose to rotate it. Any suggestions are welcomed and much needed! Thanks all~

You're drilling holes and placing the magnets in them right? I don't see how that would be overly complicated on something that wasn't flat, just triple check your angles before you drill

If you are using magnets to hold something with wings together you need to ensure you have enough hold to the model together as you move it.
Also magnetising a neck to allow you to pose the head in different ways is a lot more complex than drill and be done.
