This is the rear booster mount. As you can see on the right side the whole booster is held by a single downward! facing pin. Tricky.
Tried to mount a booster temporarily.
The whole construction gives quite some stress on the mount and pins. This will need a good amount of epoxy glue to avoid any flex and to keep everything safely in place.
Here an example where i use neodyne magnets. Instead of a pin i put magnets in little holes . They hold the parts quite well in place. <3
Also got some new supplies from the HLJ.com free express shipping promo last week. Mr. Resin Primer, Mori Mori putty (AWESOME stuff!) and Hobby Base/Yellow Submarine joints.
I will probably use the joints in the hips, ankles and shoulders.

Hi S.L. A semi-random question: did you figure out the best way to dilute Vallejo paints? I use them all the time and would like to continue using them, but sometimes I have the same problems which you described some time ago (clogging in the airbrush etc).
@Савеленко
simply tap water. Alcohol definitely clogs the paint. And even thou the vallejo paints are supposedly pre-thinned - depending on the color you have add quite a bit water. like 1:3 ratio.
