Thunder_God Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 How do you handle those models? How do you, aside from buying extras, handle models that can join bases and then spread again? Empty bases, what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Someone did a beautiful set of Coriphree with a plank flooring. The models were attached to some of the planking which was then magnetised and then the 3 bases had planking with gaps for the planking attached to the models, so when in place it just looked like a normal floor.

JustAnotherDummy Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 For my Coryphees, I magnetized the bottom of the squatting Coryphee, attached the standing Coryphee to a barrel to give the impression she was balancing upon it and attached a magnet to that. All bases--singular and combined--have magnets to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoboStele Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Yeah, I magnetized my coryphees as well. But my spiders, I just bought extras of. I remembering seeing one guy who had mounted his spiders onto small crates or barrels and then magnetized the crates/barrels to the bases so they could be easily swapped to the large base.

Shadowopal Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 I'm the guy with the spiders. I used barrels and pieces of gothic architecture from Warhammer 40K sprue, pots and sandbags from a campground blister I think from Reaper Minis. But, I bought it so long ago. I put rare earth magnets from forcefieldmagnets.com . I then attached the spiders and pinned their bodies to the item. Then I bought the wrecked warjack base inserts from Warmachine for my swarmed version and stuck magnets at random points that looked good for the junk pieces to be on. So it looks like a junk pile that the swarm is crawling over. I drilled the magnet holes just deep enough for the magnets to sit flush. If you need more info, let me know. I'm doing the same concept for the copyphees using the plank method above. But, I prefer magnets to pins. Here's pics of what I did. Sorry they aren't the best quality. My cell phone was all I had and it sucks.: Swarm 1 Swarm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
