Collosal Squig and Giant Squig Modeling

Colossal and Giant Squig Tutorial

Purchased some squigs awhile ago, over 2 years ago, and finally started getting around back to them.  I just wanted to make a couple posts on here to any gamer out there.  First, after un-packaging your miniature clean your models.  I have here pictured several squigs made from finecast, but the same applies to any model(resin, rubber, finecrap).  I used soap and water and scrubbed each model for about 20 min each, let dry, and then assemble/green stuff. 



 Here I have pinned each large joint twice with 1/16 inch copper wire.  Then used copper wire for all add ons to the top of the squigs (horns and mushrooms).  Holes for the wire are drilled about 1/4 inch deep. 


The last picture here is before when all the horns and mushrooms were completed.  Typical 2 part green stuff was used for everything.  Bases are 40mm bases with 1/2" cork glued to the top.  all joints were glued with medium bond super glue and tightbond III was used for all basing material.
