Thanks. I've uploaded a picture of the finished (unpainted) Riptides with feet attached now.

Started painting yesterday. Only one Riptide, because the other one has his foot broken... and his leg... :{[]

The robot models are made of a very hard plastic. I can't use plastic cement glue (that melts the plastic) and the surface is very smooth, even for superglue...
