pictures of GW sprues?

Post by vesrian »

Is there anywhere on the web that i can find pictures of GW's plastic sprues? I clicked on the components link on the GW site for several models, but it doesn't show anything.

it is hit or miss...

in the Game section of the GW website, under each army, (FB or 40K), there is a modeling section, and sometimes that gives you pictures of the sprues.. for example, I am looking at this. ..

to try to pre-imagine a conversion I am working on..

however, there is no given that the exact sprue you are looking for will exist.

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

I use the Unofficial Porkuslime Trading Guidelines - if you have way less refs.. you ship first.

Folks I am awaiting a ref from.. Zack

I've been searching for some time now myself, with not much success; there is mostly just partial pics or lists, scattered here and there. There was one out of eastern Europe with a pretty extensive picture/part# database but it looks like a certain business entity made them pull the pics.

And to add on to the preceding post, visiting the other GW websites as well(Germany, France, et al) might have pictures of sprues you want to view as well, and just as hidden as previously described.

Grabbing yourself a Bits Bible (aka GW's 2006-7 Catalog & Hobby Reference) and manually perusing it in Meat Space would probably be the next best thing than having a convenient web-based directory with pictures.
