The red paint trick is a good idea. Hadn’t thought of that before.

I used to do this with Silicone grease when lining up new screw holes when I used to work as a tech repairing appliances. I sometimes had to use aluminum scrap to make replacement metal plate covers with tin snips when reconditioning a used machine as part of making it like new.

problem is, you still need to know the angle of how to drill

I really like the larger sword handle as well. Both of these are MASSIVE improvements to an already very good kit

@Luna-tc3xj

I mean I personally think the handles a little too big, though I haven't had the chance to go look at the stock model for the sword myself yet, so I'm not entirely sure how bad it is there. I just mean that, at least if I imagined the demon prince holding the sword in two hands it does look like Thier would still be way too much handle left over, but that might just be a personal preference thing

@@Luna-tc3xj the stock model has a ridiculously small handle

The idea was close, but wrong. You put the paint dot where you want the pin to go on the head. Before you drill, place the head with the wet paint dot on the neck. Now you got the correct location. If you do it the way shown in the clip, you can't tell when the neck and head is aligned because you got the head 1/2 inch in the air due to the pin preventing you from contacting head to neck.

Great tip!

Looks great, but you could've probably cut the one small horn so that it looks like it broke off in battle and then you could keep the shoulder spikes probably🤔

Sounds like a fun idea to try!

fantastic work

That part usage is perfect. The head looks like it was made for this model. Amazing work.

Pretty neat, but i think it could go a bit further with a feral look, like swapping the hands out or something

Better in every way

As someone who still has his old Imperial Guard/Astra Militarum army in his attic somewhere, I applaud you on this. Very impressive!

A few years back I got the finecast nurgle prince and the spellcrow jumppack and sculpted them together. It’s basically ready to paint but I shelved it because adhd or some crap

Good thinking on the brass rod i always just used paper clips works well 👍

Mimicked the muscle well, very cool :D

Looks very nice

My demon Prince is a kit bash between the actual demon Prince mini and a mualer fiend head and lower arms for a four armed dragon dude

I’ve always wondered how people kit bash models. It’s nice to see it done first hand

Did the same with a Nurgle Deamon prince with an Ogre head

It looks so good!

Good shit dude

That makes it look super 80s lmao

Better put the spare Mindstealer Sphyranx head.It's funnier that way.

Truly a superb conversion! 🤘😎

Lovely.

Awesome!

It looks fantastic. I tried sculptor Vaseline on a whim and there isn’t a huge difference with regular Vaseline except it “wipes” a lot cleaner and “slides” less. More control less grease I guess. Amazing conversion

​@TheHobbyCollab what about the daemon prince head we see on the 40k model that has the 4 horns

Nice conversion, but holy mother of god, 1mm rod, this head will stick to the torso even if everything else is long gone. :D

i kitbashed like three of the original heads lol

the jittering is giving me a panic attack

Looks amazing. Gg

My dude 😎 I a ahuge fan of make it better conversions rule of cool every time .why I ended up with a bunch of iron hands primaris 😂😂😂

It looks way too easy to misalign the head and neck tbh. Like, it's basically just a stylus at that point and not actually a guide rod

I guess this is where all the micro plastic comes from xD Just a joke yo

How many heads are in the Wilderfiend kit? Been thinking of getting one, when it gets fully released, and I have a Demon Prince to try this on. But I don't want to ruin the wilderfiend mini completely.

Huh, never heard of using petroleum jelly with green stuff. How does it work?

@TheHobbyCollab

24 күн бұрын

Hey sorry for the late reply. Petroleum jelly prevents the green stuff from sticking to your tools kind of like water. But unlike water, you dont have to keep rewetting your tools. Also, your tools glide more easily off the surface. It's hard to describe, its more of a "feel" type of thing.

Good tutorial and greenstuff work!👍 But I'm not a fan of that Wilderfiend especially it's head.

Why not glue the head flush? Is it just stronger with the rod or what?

Ehhhhhhh I answered this in another comment.

Looks great. But why pin a plastic model kit? Plastic glue bonds better than super glue, and it's not heavy enough for support. Does it help with something else?

@TheHobbyCollab

24 күн бұрын

Good question! I did use a little plastic glue after the pin was in place, but that wasnt 100% needed. Also, the area where the two piece meet wasn't very flat, and would've required more sanding which may have changed the angle of the head which I wanted to avoid. There's a large gap under between the neck on the body and head, so if I used only plastic glue would've meant holding the pieces together for awhile until the glue fully set, and even then wouldnt have been as sturdy as pinning.

I mean you could have just plastic glued the wilderfiend head on and then filled said gaps with green stuff and not have to do all the extra steps of pinning

Isn't plastic glue enough? Or is the head not plastic?

Plastic glue would probably be enough if you let it set, but I felt the rod helped reinforce the connection since I started sculpting around the neck soon after.

No need to brass rod with plastic, just use cement.
