winged wizard i'm not sure exactly where your turrets are for magnetising but I figured I'll post my progress on magatising my carnifex, you don't need massive magnets but I just bought some nice small ones off amazon and they do the job nicely.
Here he is assembled, i've yet to magnitise a second set of arms

Why they don't let the good BL writers handle the fluff for codexes is beyond me
Ward crunch is alright albeit the codex creep

What happened to Captain Boreale?

He died through food poisoning.

He tried to gain the necrons knowledge by eating their brains but he found out the hard way that living metal isn't exactly organic.

Since you're in America, I'm fairly sure those are the ones i bought..
you'll probably also need some green stuff, up to you where you get that from, amazon will sell it again though, as the limbs rotate freely under their own weight so you'll need to make the joint either tighter or give them some under arm support or something along those lines, I'm still working on that.
tutorial here: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8Tkw7ttTIo[/url] personally I didn't do any clipping as I didn't want to damage the model irreparably..

Then you're either thinning it down wrong, not letting it dry properly or putting too much on.
What primer are you using when you painted the white on? did you just paint the white straight on or did you put a basecoat down first?

Yeah the part is too heavy for the single magnet so it's being pulled down, a soloution is to get some smaller magnets and glue two in the joint and two in the arm, should hold them better and not allow any slipping.
Think I'll just glue one of the numerous extra spikes i got with it under the arm, that'll sort it.

And those 18 days could be longer then earth days. Considering that it said that it was on an arctic climate

Well, full power armour suits recycle waste, so no saying that scout armour can't.

Used an astronomicon grey basecoat
what primer/spray?
Chaos black, because I got it for free
I have a feeling skull white would work better considering my color scheme is bright and white
Water down
Astronominican Grey (3:1 water to paint ratio)
apply 3-4 layers of that until it's a solid colour
Skull White (1:1 water to paint ratio)
apply that in about 6-7 layers.
Should have smooth white by that point.
