After much swearing I assembled this model. Some tweaking will be required but that I will do only after green stuff cures solid.

Anyway. The person who made the sculpture is a good sculptor but a horrible engineer. In order to assemble this piece 4 different joints must come together in 3 dimensions. Even if we assume perfect 4 in each position it would require some efforts. But…

Whoever saw perfect joints in metal miniatures raise the hand, how about 4 perfect joints in 1 model… anyway lots of places now have to be corrected after all these manipulations.

Hm I guess I will have to do some careful planning before painting mine then!

Aggree with Sven, THanks for the heads up. I'm just now starting to paint and i see where I should wait untill I have some other parts glued (wrist, tube on back, etc.) I guess I'll have to paint some, glue and then paint some more.

I would ignore that chain on the top. After you adjust 3 points (wrist, back "hose" and the weapon at the shoulder joint just gently bend it in place. In the end I glued everything end just filled holes. Now, I really have to work on wrist joint. As the moment it looks like crap
