Building the Brain Spiders

Here's a quick guide to building our Brain Spider models. They consist of a pair of resin bodies and 12 metal appendages. These can be glued to the body using standard superglue.

First clean up the metal parts by carefully removing any bits of the excess metal. Next round off the flat bottoms on the Brain Spiders bodies using a file.

Once this is done begin gluing the legs in place. Glue in place one at a time getting them in the general position. They can be bent into their final postion at a later stage. Once the legs are in position glue the remaining mandibles in place.

Final stage is to fill the gaps around the legs and mandibles with some modelling putty. Once this putty has cured the legs can be bent into their final positions.
