It broke! Help pls

[milman]

omg i could use some help.
My oldblood on carnosaur broke his sunspear! It broke right behind his hand (meaning the tip of the spear till thr hand is completly off the model). Any golden tips on how i can re-attach it best becaus using the gw glue doesn't work well anymore on this tiny place...

I think your best bet is a tiny pin and some alcohol based glue. Though others may have better suggestions.

I'd suggest making sure both the break off points are smooth and then just working on a system to keep the part in place while the glue does it's job - I know tiny bits to glue can be fiddly and finger numbing but if you give it the time it needs it'll do its job

Do you have a pin vise? (A pin vise is also a hand drill for tiny drill bits—it usually comes with the bits, all for about $10)


It sounds like it broke in front of the hand? But flush with the hand? A picture of the two pieces clearly showing the break would be helpful.
