>>6383257 Tip on gluing:
If you're using tube cement, try not to squeeze from the tube straight to the model. You're better off putting some onto a (disposable) palette and applying with something like a toothpick or straightened out paperclip. You do need to work semi-quickly because it will start to string a little. If it's stringing heavily right out of the bottle, your cement is too old. Tube cement tends not to keep for long, in my experience, but that's kind of relative I guess. Liquid cement will last you longer but does evaporate. Some brands faster than others, I think.
If it's a bottle of super glue (cyanoacrylate), you should probably do something similar to the above in how to apply it, unless you have a decent applicator nozzle for fine work (in which case, you should be careful about how much you dispense.)
>>6384044If you're looking for something to assemble, you might want to double check if they're actual kits or preassembled. I vaguely remember them to be preassembled anyway. Still, they're pretty neat.

Kingdom Death, Beyond the Wall fig I'm working on:
I finally got around to casting the lantern/left hand in clear resin. There's a tiny air bubble and I'm not sure if the hand casted funny. I'll need to put a thin layer of paint to check the suspected parts. If it's a bust, I'll redo the spew mold in silicon instead of latex.
Even if it fails, I'll probably drill a hole out of the bottom to see if I can simulate a small flame. Makes me wonder how small an LED I can find as an alternative though...
