Files or Sandpaper, and Hand Drill with 1/16 bit).
Jager Parts Sprue
TO ASSEMBLE YOUR GEARS, FOLLOW THESE STEPS:
Assemble one model at a time to prevent mixing of parts.
When gluing wait until glue is set before advancing to the
next of the following gluing steps.
Carefully remove the parts from the sprue with clippers for your first model.
Use a fine grit hobby file or a hobby knife to trim any excess flash from parts.
1. Using super or plastic glue attach the legs to the hips (select leg pose)
2. Use glue to attach the models feet to the hex or round base.
3. Use glue to attach engine to torso.
4. Clip or cut the gun grip off and glue to right arm
5. Use glue to attach arms to torso one at a time.
6. Use glue to attach torso/arms/engine assembly to hips.
7. Use glue to attach head to torso.
8. Use glue to attach rocket pod to shoulder
mount (models left side).

SAFETY TIP:
Hobby knives are very sharp and must be used with great care, or serious
injuries can occur. We urge you to use clippers when removing parts for the
sprue. And use a fine grit hobby file whenever possible to remove any plastic
flash or smoothing out the area where the part was connected to the sprue.

PRIMING
have assembled all your models we’ll touch on the basics of priming and painted them. If the plastic models got dirty
AND PAINTING YOUR MODELS
Once you
or oily from your fingers while assembling you should wash them with soapy water and then let them fully dry before priming.
It’s important that the plastic surfaces are clean for the primer to get a strong bond to the surface. We have found that fine grey
primer works best and is a neutral color when you go to paint up the models in either light or dark color schemes.
We have selected a grey paint scheme for the Southern Jagers and a tan paint scheme for the Northern Hunters, with a black
wash to get the lowered lining details and a lighter grey or tan to highlight the edges. But, you’re the commander and can
decide on any paint scheme you like. We have some painting guides on the DP9 website and will be posting more in the future.

HEAVY GEAR BLITZ MASTER SERIES PAINT SET
Once you have assembled all your miniatures you’ll want to paint them up. Dream Pod 9 has a Heavy Gear Blitz Paint Set available
that includes 36 Master Series paints. They have been designed with the idea of a base color teamed with lighter similar color that
can be used for dry brush highlighting and a black wash to darken all the lowered panel lining details. The set can be purchased
on the DP9 Online Store (www.store.dp9.com). We are working on a painting guide for the new plastic miniatures, with suggested
faction paint schemes, that will be available as a free pdf download in the near future. You can also use other paints and design
your own paint schemes for the different forces, its a game and the important thing is to have fun.
Color Chart above shows all 36 colors with Heavy Gear themed naming.
FACTION DECAL PACKS
3
Dream Pod 9 has Decal Packs for all the factions available if you
want to add some logos, numbers and other markings on your
miniatures once they are painted up. Decals must be cut from
sheet and then placed in water for a short time to slide off the
paper backing and then applied on the miniature. Decal Packs are
available on the DP9 Online Store (www.store.dp9.com).
