Hi

I recently bought a bunch of Kabalites, and seem to be having issues getting their shoulder pads to fit together.
There seems to be a gap that runs down the middle that I can't quite get to close up fully and get to look all pretty like in the pictures. Am I doing something dumb, or is this a case for greenstuff?
Cheers!

It's a case with a number of eldar kits - some look fine with a quick file (or fine sandpaper) whilst others need a bit of green stuff (liquid GS ideally) and then a sand.

Okay, cheers!

Squadron Putty is a lot better for that particular application. I like liquid greenstuff for things like filling holes in resin models, but I find that it shrinks too much to be useful for gap-filling Kabalite shoulder pads.

As with any tight but not quite right joins it makes sense to file them to make the gaps a bit bigger then fill them.
I like Vallejo's Plastic Putty.
