Hey everyone, so my brother was assembling his tech priest dominus and accidentally set the head on (using super glue) at a cocked angle. It doesn't look bad at all, just on close inspection you can see that some things from the head just dont line up. Does anyone have a suggestion how I could help him fix it?

BTW, the head sets into a socket that he put glue into, incase that's important.

Has he painted it? If not, dump it in some Simple Green/Dettol/Branded Brown Antiseptic Stuff and this will mean the mini will come apart after a few hours soak (3/4 hours). DO NOT DRY WITH TISSUE OR IT WILL STICK TO YOUR MODEL.

right, I saw that somewhere as a solution. I'd rather not the whole model come apart but it sounds like a good idea.

How should it be dried then?

Leave it on a towel, or hair-dryer it. Nothing thin or papery and make sure thats the first thing you're going to strip or you may get rubbery paint flakes on it, but I dont see this as an issue for you.
