Looking good Dave and Jye! This tiny death guard may not like to hear it, but they look cute at that size 😉 If you paint battle suits red, maybe they’ll shoot faster - why should orks have all the fun 😉

Does anyone know an easy and effective way of fixing warped/bent resin?
Soak the resin in very warm water for at least 20 mins.
Straighten it.
Make sure it is held straight until the heat dissipates.

This works for Forgeworld resin. Not sure about other types.

Many thanks. I'll give that a try. :)

It helps if you dunk it in cold water to help it set - I usually go between "nearly boiling" and "ice water". You might have to let it sit a couple hours and come back to it, too, since it seems like resin sometimes has a sort of a "memory" and it'll bend back a bit even after you've set it.
Feel free to call me Dave!

I finished up 3 of the new posessed, so I can finally field a unit of them.

Good progress all. Wish I could say the same for myself.

On another note, did you all know 30x45cm MDF board is available at Seria for the regular 110円? I thought it'd be the talk of the town around here.

Oh! Good to know for the next terrain project. Been thinking about making a real base and mounting that GoMo Fort on something solid. I have it all rigged up to collapse "flat", :roll: but I think it wouldn't take up much more space if I just assembled it and stacked my other terrain around/inside it in the box.

I bought 6 of them a while ago with the plan to build a board for Malifaux. The plan didn't progress very far as the boards are heavy and bulky, plus game mats seemed like a better choice in terms of transport, storage and durability.
I do like the idea of modular 3D boards, but they are much more of an 'at home' thing.

Love the spooky terrain!

I'm still working on a unit of Custodes bikes, which I had forgotten take forever to paint. Maybe a smarter person who used sub assemblies would have a better time.
