Building eldar guardians 3rd part

I added backpack antennae onto eight models and prepped some heads for priming.

Glue efficiency moves I used today: I applied a glob of glue in the socket of one antenna. Then I dipped the antenna for the other side in to get it sticky and applied it. I could attach the other antenna with what was left in its socket.

My other efficiency move was to breathe onto the antennae beforegluing them to speed up the glue bonding. Super glue, or CA glue needs moisture to turn solid. So breathing onto a part out of your mouth, same as you would to warm your hands in winter, gets moisture on the part and helps the glue bond. This helps when it would be too burdensome to get out a legit glue drying accelerator chemical to apply. The accelerator works quicker than the breath technique but sometimes reaching for the accelerator means letting your parts slip out of position. The accelerator can lead to frustration if you accidentally apply it too soon and your parts get frozen out of position.
