Some figures you pick up in large lots have half an arm or leg missing , or just generally chewed in places!
These have to be put out of their misery and face the knife.
Or like the Kraken, just are destroyed for the torso.
Any sugestions for Muton, because the buggers are multiplying at a frantic rate in the Shadow box!

As for the counterdrill, I`ve been busy investigating :)
I asked a guy at the factory I work in and he showed me a selection of drills.
Not fully sure of which size to buy, seen a couple on Ebay,look quite cheap to pick up.

As my normal impatient self , I took the knife to the figure and shaved a little more off the arm sections
Just have the fiddly job of attatching the arms to the inside of the torso:(

I actually prefer something like this over the Mutons, the RED SHADOWS need Divers to face Q-force and its one less fantastical thing for the red shadows and for me , thats good!

Found a countersink drill bit yesterday in Wilkinsons for just over a pound.
At 6mm it is the perfect size for the figures.
I`ll try it out later and post some more pics.
