Sideshow Grievous Repair Advice

[Billy Mango]

Hello, I'm a new member and was hoping to get some advice on how to repair this statue. The right forearm plate and the right shoulder plate are broken off.



I assume the forearm piece can be easily repaired with epoxy, but the shoulder piece is trickier. Here are some detailed pictures.




This is what the right shoulder plate looks like.

For the shoulder, I was thinking epoxy, but it looks very tricky.

Any advice before I attempt this repair?

For the shoulder plate, you could drill a hole in both ends were it broke and glue in a pin. Epoxy putty works well. YOu can also use it to fill the seem. A Dremmel or a pencil drill should work for the hole.
Like you said, the forearm piece can be glued on.

Thanks Darth...I'll try that and see how it works.

Darth Pain is right, you need to pin it. If you glue it itwill snap right off as soon as it get bumped into anything. I would remove the peice sticking up from the shoulder and drill under the shoulder armor but not all the way through. You can find a peice of metal tubing to match that peice to the exact size. Paint the metal rod/tube to match , then glue it inside the drill holes with crazy glue. Should last pretty good.
