andozane Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Question I am building some models, and want to play test at the same time. How can I go about Temporarily attaching the models to the bases? Either bases that are never going to be their permanent ones....because I'm thinking in the meantime I will build the bases seperately and paint them seperately. Do I just tack them with a bit of zap a gap? Then break it when I want to rebase them or paint them? Suggestions? Thanks... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainA Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 small dab of super glue then zip kicker. Makes i fragile and easy to break off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 I use a tiny dot of super glue. Just do it on one foot, so it's easier to get leverage to pop them off. I do that for most of the stuff that I'm planning on painting off the base that it's going to eventually live on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PourSpelur Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Are they on the bases they'll eventually be on but you want to keep them removable to paint the bases seperate? If so pinning the feet but not glued down could work nicely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
