    yes, you should be able to. Question though, where is it snapped apart at?

    EDIT: I have an old style Dark Elf war hydra that litterally lost one of it's heads - which is an all-metal model. It was such a pain to glue back as it was the head that was twisted the most and farthest away from the model making it heavy. If I had to redo it over again, I would have drilled and pinned then glued.

    I think the Tail actulay came as a seperate piece, the legg shouldb't be too hard,
    just base the model and superglue the leg to the body and the base.
    I would probaly pin the tail though before glueing, those are notorious for falling off.

    Other option would be to make scenic base that hides the busted leg. Putit behind a rock or a shrubbery.
