I think most of the extra bits have a place or use. I think it was more back in the day - 'if we throw in a load of spikes they'll love us' ;)40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-74380285705974312302015-01-14T11:15:40.113+00:002015-01-14T11:15:40.113+00:00I agree, it is hard to place the armour in a posit...I agree, it is hard to place the armour in a position where it doesn't look tacked on, like the shoulder pads of some 80's glam metal band. I had to actually cut away part of the head so that it would sit flush (more naturally). I really appreciate that Citadel gives us the extra parts to play with, but they require quite a bit of effort to make them worthwhile.

You can't even dry fit sometimes for fear the hole is too tight and you push it in and then can't get it out. So I end up using coffee stirrers to push it in so I don't get glue on my hands but that lack of touch doesn't give you the clue of how hard it's being pushed and then 'POP' it's gone all the way through!<br /><br />I'm not so sure on all the exyta armour bits for the carnifex, they always felt just 'stuck on' but I did find them useful for extra armour on my Genestealers and having been trimmed down to a more manageable size I got a load of extra spikes too!40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-83762507897234850552015-01-14T08:06:15.502+00:002015-01-14T08:06:15.502+00:00Old Brown Eye sounds very wrong...Old Brown Eye sounds very wrong...40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-88294280116070845382015-01-14T01:44:44.487+00:002015-01-14T01:44:44.487+00:00Bwah ha ha!

Sorry Greg, that cracks me up :-) I don't magnetise things very often, so I have never even considered this problem; thanks for the warning guys.<br /><br />I use have used the same head for my carnifex, but I sawed off the antenna and replaced them with an extra armour piece from the monstrous creature biomorph sprue ("Ol' Six Eyes"). Great pose on this guy, by the way, far more dynamic than the standard build.Marc van Holsthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06111807836610358784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125294933155144215.post-16336759584679116892015-01-12T22:44:08.576+00:002015-01-12T22:44:08.576+00:00" saw a tutorial recently that advised doing ..." saw a tutorial recently that advised doing each half of the body before gluing together so if you push the magnet all the way through it's not lost inside it's torso.
