GD get together mini WIP\'s

As the base has a slotta tab, the coin just won\'t work and simply isn\'t heavy enough. That flag is a good 2.5mm thick and heavy - he falls off the holder when I tip him sideways to paint him. I use some sponge to rest him on but it\'s still a weak point

Try some Polyfilla in the underside of the base. It might just be enough to give it that little bit to draw the centre of gravity of the figure within it\'s base confines.

I would really love to have taken part in this, however I figured that since I am living in Greece it wouldn\'t be convinient to you.
I see good progress and I am sure the result will be gorgeous. Keep it up guys ;)

I stick a 2p coin to the bottom of my bases to weigh them down. Tis slightly larger rthan them too, so something to hold onto and easy to prise off when finished.

I was actually gutted when I found out that the KISS technique was Keep It Simple Stupid, for a minute I thought you were all gonna paint the squad with glam rock face paints and long green stuff tongues!

Although cool, probably not the best idea for charity auction pieces...;)

Here\'s the medic, converted to radio operator. I received the online store bits yesterday (thanks to war griffon for the cadian plastics!).

Quite pleased with him so far, especially his little headphone made out of GS and very thin wire :] Guitar strings and random electrical components are fun! :D The base is nothing yet, just some GS to hold him in at the moment.
