pigi314159 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 So my friend got me the Seamus box as a gift. I happily start cleaning and fixing bent pieces, and as I'm futzing around, much to my horror Seamus breaks in half! Should I bother green stuffing him back together or just cut my losses and get another Seamus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEiRD sKeTCH Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Ouch! It depends on the severity of the break. I can fix most breaks if they're relatively clean. Some pinning and green-stuff could be all you need. Can you take a picture? If I see what you're dealing with, I can try to give you more advice.

pigi314159 Posted February 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Camera I have has no resolution to show the break in any amount of useful detail, so I'll attempt to describe. I have a pair of Seamus legs and a Seamus torso. The break is right along the small of his back. If I align the back, there is a 1 mm gap on the the front (his right, your left) if you look at his face. The pewter seemed to be deformed in some other places so I can't seem to get it to fit cleanly together again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 That's odd as hell, and never heard of it before. What were you doing to it, repositioning, modifying, etc? If its just plain ol' bad cast, send a picture and description to 'nathan@wyrd-games.net' and a new one will likely get sent right along.

pigi314159 Posted February 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 I was repositioning his upper body as it was bent a bit too far for my liking, and of course my thumb was positioned right at the weakest point of the model. I'm not sure what constitutes a "bad cast" and I'm happy to say I was an oaf and broke the mini. I just find it strange that I was able to cleft a mini in twain with my thumb! I will still see if I can wrangle up a camera that has a decent enough quality to take a picture if that is helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angus Khan Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 That looks like a bad cast, at least IMHO... No model should just snap like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonwolf Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 That does look like a bad cast to me as well. It's got a lot of little specks all over it. My Seamus had a much smoother finish on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigi314159 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Not to be the shameless self-bumper, but anymore thoughts on this? Repairable? Or PM Nathan time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus Khan Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Not to be the shameless self-bumper, but anymore thoughts on this? Repairable? Or PM Nathan time? Definitely PM Nathan... hopefully he can get it all sorted out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
