I found these APC’s on eBay and thought they had the right Sci-Fi look for my Platoon. They took a lot of cleaning up as the resin was quite bubbly, however it gave me a chance to use my dremel. I have had it for years but never found a chance to use it, this resin was the perfect excuse. The other hurdle was working out what to glue the pieces together with. My wife told me about the properties of two part epoxy glue. We tried it and it worked. Two new things in one night I might have to sit down...
An interesting look to those APCs. Kinda strike me as utilitarian verging on crude......reminds me of the nostromo vibe and other 'on the fringe' stuff. Great find there.
ReplyDeleteThey do have a pretty nifty look to them! Nice find!
ReplyDeleteNice job! I almost always use epoxy resin for sticking figures to bases, fills in any uneven areas and gives a large contact area, even better than gel superglue (and without the white vapour marks you bet from superglue).
