These tactical marines were rescued from what can only be described as a thick double dip in red paint.

They were also assembled with hot glue.

They will now join the ranks of my Iron Hands project.

    As someone who has spent a fair bit of time recently stripping and repairing a few eBay baragins, I admire your dedication.

      Thanks, most of the stuff I work with these days is secondary market (ebay, Kijiji, marketplace) so I am getting very adept at salvage work.

      There’s a lot of people who have never worked on miniatures before and don’t know any better.

      My father was into wargaming and model building, so I had a good resource available to me as a kid. Not everyone has that.

      Not sure, but I have two landraiders put together the same way.

      They literally fell apart when I stripped the paint off them.
