    Default Magnetic Warpwolf + Gheto

    so again i magnetized the kit for a friend (since i seem to be working through all the beast kits, Legion kit thread coming eventually)

    so here's the kit in total with all the magnets


    so for a few things
    1 - Gheto's hands are REALLY hard to magnetize because of the ball socket with metal and smaller hands, so i accdientally broke throught he bottom of his lower hand which i had to reconstruct out of a bit of plasticard and some putty, and a mold. Made a mold of his other hand, recreated with putty, then fixed up with a knife to carve things down, then covered with superglue to bring some texture to it.

    Nice work! Looking at the parts separately I was concerned that the magnets weren't recessed but it comes together great.

    Fun thread timing! I mostly got my arms magnetized over the weekend for Ghetto/feral. I already have the other two WWs and I'm a stickler for the paint schemes, anyway. Now I just need some time with a dremel to get the Ghetorix arms and the body magnets done. I was pleased to discover that there was enough depth in the head socket that I didn't need to do much, if any, cutting on the head-joins. They are short enough that they already didn't contact the back of the socket. Good to know in advance about the fragility of that hand too, I'll keep a watch out for it!

    Your work looks really good. I have a feeling the owner will be quite happy with it.

    This looks fantastic, very seamless joints. Pictures of the pureblood?
