If I build it he will come.

Long time no blog! Kinda fell by the wayside so I will try to post blogs again.

So last week I bought my latest Cryx warcaster, Lich Lord Asphyxious or otherwise known as eGaspy. Kinda big with lotsa stuff to attach. I initially brushed the parts to remove any corrosion. Then I cut off the shafting of the weapon because the white metal tends to bend a lot and replaced it with a steel rod. Afterwards I attached both arms and let the glue bond overnight. This is what I started with today:


Last night I had also pinned the head like so in preparation for attaching it to the body:


The pin is attached to the base of the skull. Next I drilled a hole in the cowl where the head is to be attached:


And afterwards, attached the head.


Next I put a pin under the body. I had to do this because as you see from the pics above the base will only attach to eGaspy in a small area. Attaching a pin should go aways in meking the connection more stable.


Lastly, I drilled a hole to the metal base where the pin will go in and also attached the "souls" onto the base.


Next up, will be basecoating the base and then painting it before I attach eGaspy and then finish painting him up which hopefully will be within the next few days.

Until next time!
