Re: [DL] reparing broken figures -- WAY OT



Use 5 minute epoxy, be carful with it, but get it smooth and even. after it dries use a small brush and pant the area. 

The epoxy will fill the cracks and chips, the paint will hide the epoxy.

Do be careful with epoxy, it is a bit permanent. If you haven't glues much get some small pieces of wood or plastic about the same size, and experiment gluing them first.  Epoxy is good stuff, but needs a fine touch to use.  It is better than super glues in that it fills and seals the work, and lasts longer.

Hope this helps.
