Sorry for the delay; glue issues


Wanted to post an update and explanation of the delay in posting pics of the French IV Corps in formation. 

Unfortunately the glue I used earlier to glue the backpacks on several of the French line and light Hat French figures didn’t take.  I’ve had to strip off the backpacks, clean of the dried flaking glue, and reglue (this time with a hot glue gun; so they’re staying on now!).  I’m about 3/4ths of the way through this, so should be completed, and the IV Corps set up for pics by this weekend.

Im sure I’m not the first person to have issues with gluing model figures, but it is quit annoying given that I spent quit a lot of time the first time washing and gluing the figures and money on what I was told was decent glue (Loctite) for it to fail so completely (and messily).

Cheers

So I did order additional Hat Carabiniers in the new true French blue! Lol

 Decided to buy another 5 sets of the Hat Carabiniers in the latest dark blue of the recent restock to (re)make my 2 guard Chasseur bats.   ...
