How to Build a Hydra

WE24 Hydra by [ZHU]

Recently drew an instruction sheet for Otherworld Miniatures Hydra model, showing which head connects to which socket, fortunately the faces on the beast are each uniquely expressive making identifying them quite simple once you have a guide to follow.

So I tested the instructions  by temporarily putting the model together with blue-tack, and photographed in an attempt at an early 1980s wargames magazine style. Although I'm sure those heavy blacks would have caused no end of production difficulties.
