Hey everybody. Just wondering if anyone has done the Queen Chestburster from Halcyon. Just got one and it looks like it's gonna be a beast to build. Wanted to know if anyone has any tips to share. Thanks
 
Hey man, I don't have pics. I can take some though. I've done the Halcyon Alien 3 Facehugger, which almost ended my model hobby! It did turn out great though!!! Lol. Anyhow, this model has many small legs to it. My main concern was how do you fill up tiny legs? I just don't see how I can get plaster in those small pieces. This is my 3rd vinyl/pvc model. I've basically used plaster to fill up pieces in the past 2 that I've done.
 
If they're small you could stuff a length of pre-kinked brass rod down them, and fix it to something or embed it in plaster inside the body? It depends if they need to support weight or not, but if they're just supporting their own weight that should be enough to prevent drooping.
