Just Piddling around with this guy lately.



I'll try and get a complete shot with the loin cloth later. And just so you guys know, that sword was straight when I primed and then slowly bent out as I painted it. I'm having a big time with my Forge World stuff doing that as of late.

I think you can soak it in hot water to straighten it. It's been a long time since I bought an FW model. Obviously I mean to soak the sword not the whole thing. Looks great btw.

I did the soaking and the bending all before I primed it. Not sure what happened it just kept going back to that bend so I finally just left it alone. I've got some Shadow Specters that I think may be suffering from the same problems.

If you want to bend it back with out getting it wet, carefully hair drying it should help you bend it back, careful not to warp the paint! I find anything resin thats likely to bend i stick a thick pin it for the whole length. This keeps it straight will the added bonus of it being stronger.

Think it needs some glow.
