Gold Smoke Knight (1.5) October 2017

 
Gold Smoke Knight is part of the KD:M 1.5 Update. Model is included with the Old & Young Survivors


sprue front


sprue back


careful clipping parts from the sprue – there are 3 connection points: one on each leg and another for the maul


special 50mm base insert


large and small smoke. clipped the larger smoke a bit on the angle for a better fit. slots marked with black marker


base with smoke


three part head: left and right head with face


left and right head assembly


with face attached. this is a tight fit


four part leg and body assembly


legs have a tab in the crotch and dot guides on the rear. shown assembled on the back


slide the head assembly in-between the shoulders for fit, then attach the chest. side view shown. dont worry too much about the gap on this side, the left arm will cover it


four part leg and body assembly with three part head assembly on base. used the pegs on the feet to slide into the base


left arm attached, front quarter view


left arm attached, rear quarter view


right arm with maul. note the square tab for maul head alignment


clipped the square tab as I wanted to swing the face up, maul head assembled


right arm attached, front quarter view. note the gap in the shoulder. plastic glue will give you a bit of flexibility when attaching this piece, but I had to hold it in place to set. will fill the gap before painting


right arm attached, rear quarter view


maul head with face up


left and right poleyn. when clipping the model off the sprue, I thought these would make great survivor masks and forgot them in the first build

poleyn attached rear, no base, clipped pegs


final front with base


final rear with base
