    How long did it take for you to get your Woogity models? (when did you put in your request for an order)

    I know that woogity was searching for a new caster or printer for the models... Guess it will be much quicker since he found one...

    That is a mighty impressive haul!

    Interesting scenery- like a crystal dungeon graveyard... should work well with those lycans!

    I also went to the previous page and noticed that one of the werewolves HAD A SKELETON TIED TO ITS BACK! :jawdrop: savage!

    Also looking forward to see what you do with those kroxigors! :artist:

    Hello friends wow its been a bit since i said i would give a more detailed explanation on what im doing with the model..(life you know) well he we go

    Well first i broke down and realized i have to use an elevated base to house the battery (its far easier that making a big howdah)
    20170130_215925.jpg 20170130_215945.jpg
    in that you can see i have used GS to make a make shift plug to hold the wire in place. I am using this type of connector so i remove the big guy and place him back on for transport. I will be adding some metal and magnets for stabilization but that's later ^_^....
    20170131_221727.jpg 20170131_201220.jpg
    here we have the left front leg of the model i have again used GS to make a "plug" so that the connector will not move no matter how many times i place and remove the model from the base....

    20170131_221802.jpg
    here we have the main body i have used quite a bit of GS to make a Slot for the push button switch and some extra to hold the metal in place...
    20170131_221754.jpg

    This is the top part of the model as you can see metal and magnets so i can remove it for ease of access/transport. A hole is in place to allow the wiring to pass through. I will be cementing the howdah in place once its all painted up...
    20170131_221746.jpg

    and finally this is a better view at the connector i have used to i can disconnect the top peace from the model with out having to worry about the wires ^_^. i used GS to hold the wires in place as when i was soldering i did not make each the same length and since i did not want to redo it this was a simple decision. Still have a lot a work ahead of me but this have be lots of fun, I cant tell you how many times i have changed and redid this build plan as i was working on it. As such i think im set on how to move forward *_*...I hope this helps any of you to try and push you self or if you have a similar idea (rambling now sorry ) anyway i am still a total amateur at this each day is a chance to learn something new lol (just don't learn by slashing you hands with the X-acto i think we all know how deep those cuts can be T_T) lots more to come but the baby is crying and its has gotten late see you next time.


    p.s
    Sorry if i dont use proper grammar i am not the best eloquent:bag:

    C/C welcomed and encouraged :hungover:

    Well since I got this model for a song and I could not get this idea put of my head. I slapped it together and yes it definitely fits on this bastiladon Base *_* now this could really work IMG_20170204_150956.jpg
