Hi,
Sorry, I had to delete the last topic I posted here. It looked a bit misleading.
Okay, now down to cases.I am working on 1/35 scale Waffen-SS figures for a diorama I am doing on the SS-Wiking Division. The commander, Herbert-Otto Gille wore glasses.
1. How do I put them on a scale face?
2. How do I keep from messing up the face and head with CA cement
So, if any of the top guns here could render assistance, it would be greatly appreciated.
Chris :-)
Figures
Military figures of all shapes and sizes.

Chris,
try a dab of white glue. Make sure it's a type that dries clear and matt. Some dry opaque, as I found out when I was adding glass shards to a ruin I did recently.. . Is also good to creae the glass in the glasses.
Cheers

I'd also advise you to try and keep glue away from the face by attaching the specs behind the ears where the glue won't show.
