Nick speaking,
Still working towards my Fritz styled big bug Tyranid list, I know it's coming along slowly, but all good things come to those who wait! Anyway, I had trouble with my first Trygon, in that, I wanted to make it interchangeable, but couldn't work out how to do it! I am pleased to say though, that I did manage to fully magnetise up my second and third Trygons very successfully. When I built my third Trygon, I did a video of the progress in hope to help others...

And I will paint them one day =)
Hmm tempting to get a had full of these, they're quite reasonably priced as well!
ReplyDeleteCan you recommend a size for infantry and then a size for wave serpent weapon mounts?
Oops, I actually gave you the wrong link before, the Trygon was done with some 5mm x1mm magnets that I got from my hobby shop, but you can easily get them with a search on eBay.
ReplyDeleteThese are the other magnets I use:
This one is ideal for arms and the one I used to do my Wave Serpents:

This one will fit some 'armpits' and is great for vehicles etc.:

This one will fit the armpits that the one above is too big for and is a nice small magnet for any tiny jobs:
