I think the FAILshit was intended as permanent, but the overwhelmingly negative response to it for reasons listed here, have made it 'temporary'. The damage is already done though, they should have waited and gone straight to all plastic.Da Masta Cheefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05941441877537371502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1607148523152146537.post-36456732181480362832013-02-07T08:46:47.781-05:002013-02-07T08:46:47.781-05:00First off, the comment about your girlfriend came ...First off, the comment about your girlfriend came over and you whipped you your miniature almost had me spitting cereal out of my nose. Thanks.<br /><br />Second, I have been pitching a bitch fit about Fuckcast for over a year for the same reason. My incubi weapons would warp like that. I wouldn't mind the hybrids like they use to do in metal and plastic... and basically that's what I did. I put metal weapons on Fuckcast bodies. Not one problem since.<br /><br />Latest rumor is Failcrap is only temporary. At some point everything will be plastic.rogue.trader.vorilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09831261405261689861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1607148523152146537.post-87316948739243284592013-02-06T13:22:19.976-05:002013-02-06T13:22:19.976-05:00The only model I've got done in fine cast is a...The only model I've got done in fine cast is a tech marine.

Their hot sand helps bend glasses frames without any damage.

I do wonder if they have not altered their "finecast" resin a few times... I have 2 things in this materiel and never plan another purchase of it. Pedro Cantor seems fine, the resin was pretty firm, more like FW/my own stuff ( I used to do a lot of casting)... Then I bought the "Sternguard Weapon Pack" and that stuff was just like the really bad plastic used in the Mageknight minis... Sorry to Dave over at the Gopher (FLGS), but pretty much seems to be the local consensus at least that plastic is great, metal fine, but that is about it...Paul Chappellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04800315555473550635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1607148523152146537.post-85514692368541012662013-02-06T10:37:18.546-05:002013-02-06T10:37:18.546-05:00What is the hot salt method?

Heating salt in a microwave, immersing the mini in it to do essentially the same thing?<br /><br />Considering the detail quality of the single model plastic kits, like the new CSM champion, it boggles the mind that they still insist on finecast, which is inferior in all respects.<br /><br />Da Masta Cheefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05941441877537371502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1607148523152146537.post-14496726891997359602013-02-06T10:29:35.034-05:002013-02-06T10:29:35.034-05:00Oh man.

Don't know how the stuff would hold up, maybe give it another sealer coat and try the hot salt method instead.<br /><br />The more I see about finecast stuff, the more I want to avoid it. Sad. Finecast, horrible codex writing, massive white dwarf delays...GW really needs to work on getting things right the first time. I have rarely had any issues with their plastic kits; they need to take whoever is in charge there and have them spread the word through the rest of the company.sonsoftaurushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08466971377569066201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1607148523152146537.post-46273721932430753352013-02-06T10:12:04.082-05:002013-02-06T10:12:04.082-05:00Since my mind is warped I'll say he looks like...Since my mind is warped I'll say he looks like he a case of the "Banana Dong".
