The main weapons don't really need magnetizing as the fit is quite snug ... a little too snug in fact. You'll have to file/sand them down a bit and be careful when priming/sealing because the little extra layer makes a difference

I added small magnets at the back of the turret and a matching one inside the slot on the fuel tanks/ammo bin. The side flamers were magnetized with a small magnet at the end of each pin and then one inside the hole of the sponson top and bottom


Flame Cannon


Swapped out for Assault Cannon. Side flamers pop out too.

Color notes:

The tank was primed brown (Rustoleum Camo Brown). I used Mechrite Red as the first layer followed by Red Gore. Highlights were done with a mix of Blood Red and Orange.

The interior of the tank was done with Gnarloc Green, washed with Badab Black or Paynes Grey. I thought that matched more closely the interior a real tanks.

The base mud is a mix of white glue, Liquitex Burnt Umber, water, sand, snow flock, static grass, and the contents of a tea bag. This is applied fairly generously to the tracks and where ever the mud would get thrown.

This is drybrushed with Snakebite Leather and P3 Rucksack Tan.

Lastly, there is some weather powder applied over the top.

Hope this was useful.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/291304/1517370.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/291304/1517370.page GMT
Do you have more detailed photos of how you magnetized the sponsons?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/291304/1517430.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/291304/1517430.page GMT
For the posts, I used the D101-N50 1/16" x 1/32" disc magnets from the same company.
