I show you how to add White Wolves Cape on Calvary

For the Empire Knights White Wolves which I completed recently, I had White Wolves capes on all my Empire Knights.

The cape comes as a straight flow cape in the standard sprue, if the cape were to be assembled on the Knights on the calvary, the cape will need to be sort of folded upward or in a flow or fold that would rest on the horse back.

Once the plastic cape is soften, bend or fold it with a tweezer. Place it over the Knight back and see if it fits or so. If not, just repeat the steps again, but be careful not to melt the plastic cape.

  1. Brilliant job…really topnotch! πŸ™‚
    I never knew that GW’s plastics were made from the type of plastic that lends toward bending with heat as opposed to just melting and burning…was always too timid to attempt it.

Just a typical guy who has made painting miniatures part of his daily routine life. As long as I have time in my hands, I will paint. Even with few minutes to spare at times, I will still pick up my brushes and paint a little. Nothing beats the satisfaction when you have your miniatures all done and and ready for battle!
