17th century Coach
« on: May 31, 2008, 11:37:13 AM »
I finished a 28mm coach from Blue Moon Manufacturing. I don't paint the Blue Moon figures for they wear 18th century clothes and I wish to use the coach for 17th century games.

It's a metal kit and it is rather easy to assemble. the most difficult part is the rear wheel axis that must be well glued.

I glued them with Superglue then I added a bit of a 2 part epoxy glue to consolidate it

I looked at the box at Partizan but wasn't too sure about the gluing - I have an appalling time gluing anything metal.
