Modular Mordheim Models

If you’ve read many of my posts, you’ll realize that I love making things for Mordheim that I will never need to remake. That is the biggest reasons why I don’t put bases on terrain or buildings. I know that no matter what board I make later, my buildings will fit on it gorgeously!

Yesterday, I read a post by Pathfinder Dubstyles about How to Magnatize Mordheim Miniatures to make swappable arms, weapons and even heads! This way, you don’t have to make another whole miniature when you buy him a new weapon!

Pathfinder Dubstyles has created an amazing tutorial, and I hope to follow it very soon.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did,

The paint was so thick in some places you couldn’t see the details of the miniature/model.

So I decided to strip the paint off of these miniatures. I’m going to start with my metal minis:

When I based my two orcs, I used PVA glue to glue down the sand, wood, etc. What’s wrong with that?
