Good afternoon. I started working on assembling my Dracodile last night (what a pain, literally- I have a few puncture wounds).
I've actually never worked with Resin before. I checked online, and made sure I'm careful with where/how I filed it, and I went over the entire thing with soap and a toothbrush, just in case.
However, how am I supposed to glue it together? Will regular superglue do the trick? Will that also work for gluing it to the base? Obviously plastic glue isn't going to work, but is there something else I should use?
Do people find they had to pin the pieces in place for this model? I did some dry fitting, and I wonder if I'll be better off trying to pin the tail to the back, and maybe the arms and legs on. Anyone with experience have any insight?
Thanks!

Superglue will work well for resin to anything else bonding. I generally pin large pieces of resin models but I haven't personally seen the Dracodile.
It sounds like you're doing the right thing though.

Okay cool, thank you! I think I will pin it, just to be on the safe side.
Good to know that superglue works. Perfect!
