You can always copy the picture URL and open it separately if you still have trouble seeing pictures. For example:

Hope that helps!

All in all, I'm pretty happy.

Like I said, I'm almost done. So here are my questions for you all:
Should I use Purity Seal or some other similar product? I seem to remember not caring for the way it left the model looking, have they improved it?
I plan to gloss the green orb and warpstone jewels, should I also gloss the red skaven symbols on the heads and runes to make them appear more like fresh blood?
I added the yellow Mushroom as a bit of whimsy and an homage to the olden days, but now I'm having second thoughts. Should I repaint it neutrals (beige to white) or leave it the bright yellow?
How do i transport this beautiful bastard? Hmmm . . . Horrent Barghest the Beautiful Bastard . . . that's a name.

The Vampires are back this month and I'm thinking of reviving my army in the form of a Blood Dragon list. My skeleton man-at-arms go well with a Blood Dragon theme and I'd love to have as many Dragon-type monsters flying around as possible. I forsee a Vampire Lord on the new Zombie Dragon and 2 Terrorgheists in my future...

Two things - I made a Litko order. It appears they make everything to order, so they are still making mine, three weeks later. I would not order from them if you need a rush delivery.

Secondly, How's your painting coming? I crossed the threshold and I'm feilding as many painted models as unpainted models. I have about 50 clan rats complete, and a bunch of other models nearly done. I actually have a few based!

Good Day, All.

It still amazes me how well all you guy's paint. Seban you should put pitures of your giants up. Hopefully I will have another unit of cav ready for the next game. I do have a question. I can't seem to glue a arm that fell off. I scraped the area to get all the old super glue off, but it is just not holding when I reglue with supper glue. Is there another glue that might work under these conditions. Any hints for this.

Sincerely

Thomas

From my experience and what I saw, I think you are using too much glue. Also, after you scrape off all the glue, lightly score the surfaces to create more surface area for the glue to bind to. Finally, if you are suffering from runny glue, I find a good shake can help remix it. Then I let a bit drip on a non-pourous surface, like a cd, and apply the glue with a tooth pick.

Additionally, once you connect the pieces, do not let them come apart. Once the glue starts to cure, if the structure breaks, like a meringe, it will be sticky, but it will never reglue. You can use blue tac to help with awkward gueings. Also, if your glue creates whips of strings, its probably time to chuck it. If your not sure as to the state of your glue (I find GW extremely tempermental) try glueing together two peices of sprue to test it.

One more note, there is always pinning, but that is a pain. Jason is good at it, I'm OK. I never seem to have the right tools, so I hack and hope for the best.

Or you guys could meet during the day, Jason has a rotating schedule. Also, Thomas, you should pick up a rule book.
