So, halfway through building an army, and I got my Celestine done. Is this model supposed to be as fragile as she feels? I have her on my shelf of armies and I am pretty scared to move her to actually play at home, much less pack her up and take her to the FLGS.

Is this a common complaint?
Is there a way I can modifier her as a built model to make her less....wobbly?

Help?

I don't own the model, but I admit the designs similar to her are things I won't buy. I buy minis as gaming pieces first and foremost.

I'm sure it's possible to mount her on a wire, rather than having her supported by those scroll thingies.

we need to know which parts are the issue so as best to advise on strengthening the model

I had no damage from transports so far. While I dislike how wobbly she and her Geminae are, almost like bobbleheads, I won't change that, because I like how she appears to fly (when she's not moved).

But some base her on something more rigid (not my pics, just linked) to get rid of the bobblehead effect and (somewhat) reduce the risk of damage:

i saw that one when I searched. That horus base rules

The issue is those scrolls they are attached to the base with. I am going to do something like that second one you posted Max Moray. Thanks.
