Retribution assembley II

So I have finished 3 units and their UA. I am now working on the daunting task of Assembling the Mage Hunter Strike Force boxed sets and UA. I hate these models. They look awesome and the flash and mold lines are easy to clean, and they fit nicely into the bases. Why do I hate them? I hate them because they gave me tiny parts to stick on tiny parts and expect them to be durable to the rigors of table top gaming. Those fuckers! The fix is hobby putty and some sculpting that is way more work than need be. I cannot pit most of the parts so I will have to settle for this method. As cool as they look and as awesome as they are in the game these models fail in my opinion as game quality models. These should be relegated to the kinds of things that sit on shelves and are never ever touched... I fucking hate that shit.

I've got new putty as my older stuff was not up to the challenge of sticking to the models as much as it was sticking to me. Newer Putty should work and make me less angry. More to come and maybe some pics too.
