Green Stuff Advice

[The Last Guardsmen]

So back from the dead I creep with a question for you my fellow hobbyists. Whats a good way to gap fill on a flat surface? For example a hull made from a cut down Landraider.

Plasticard is the way forward! Check out FanBoy Forge's custom work done by Ordo's Scott. Plasticard provides a better flatter surface than trying to greenstuff and then sanding flat.

Can you post a pic of your situation?

Here's my stumpy tank's hull. Since digging out my tanks 'Ive decided this lil fella needs a rework.

I've had good results with Miliput.

Squish it in there, wait 15, take a garbage big brush, wet in water and brush across.

The Miliput is water based so the excess comes off with water. I like it for organic shapes too for the same reason.

You want a filler.  

 

I recommend either Squadron putty, great but toxic vapors

 

or Vallejo Plastic putty, 

 

schmear it on, let it cure overnight, sand it with fine sandpaper.

I totally misinterpreted the initial question! I also recommend the Plastic Putty from Vallejo! Very awesome stuff for small gap filling. :)

Thanks for the input guys. Here's a shot of the tank itself: http://imgur.com/H0PxdZG

OK, given all the Land Raiders I saw converted from Russes in basically the reverse of that back in the day before the LR got a kit, that's kind of hilarious to see ;)

Thanks. Stumpy steals the spot light every time some one sees my army for the first time.

I would recommend magic sculpt or some other product that is? 1. water soluble. 2. Sandable and 3. Non Shrinking. (I will echo Scotts recommendations also) 

 

For flat gaps I mix up just over what I will need to fill the gap, apply with water, let set for about a minute, shave with some flat surface like the edge of a slotta base, check and fix any fissures, let dry and finally sand with a small square of fine grit.
