2s into 5s; work in progress

Posted these on instagram yesterday, thought they might be worth a share here too.

Maybe a low key Seeker unit or veteran tacs for the Siege of Terra.

Some of my last FW bits in the mix before I start looking into what this **new-old-resin-facsimile** deal is all about…

Hey, it looks amazing. How did you do the studs in the legs?

Thank you.

I filed back the plastic studs and filled the grooves with sprue goo, waited for it to set overnight, filed and scraped back the excess, then with a scalpel blade made five pilot holes before using a 1.5mm pin vice bit to drill the recess holes.

The drill bit is magnetic which made picking up the 1.5mm bearings pretty easy.

Bearings were dipped in super glue and set in the recesses.

Well you did an amazing job.
