Troubleshooting

Parts do not fit together correctly

Ensure you have correctly identified the parts according to the assembly guide. Trim any excess plastic sprue or mold lines with a hobby knife. Sometimes, a slight adjustment with fine-grit sandpaper can help.

Glue is not holding parts together

Check that the plastic surfaces to be glued are clean and free of mold release agents or paint. Ensure you are using a plastic cement specifically designed for miniatures (like Citadel Plastic Glue) and apply it sparingly.

Difficulty reaching small details for painting

Use fine-tipped brushes and consider using a brush handle or a painting handle to hold the model steady. Work in sub-assemblies if needed for easier access to intricate areas.

Miniature is unstable after assembly

Re-check the glued joints for proper adhesion. Ensure the model is placed on a flat surface while drying. For a more stable base, ensure the base is properly attached and consider using a textured base to add weight.
