noelthey seal the seams with plastic cements. it bond the parts together by slightly melting the plastic. well my plan really was to do a pre-painting mod on the leg armor part because i want to seal the seams on it. so i made a cut from it'natural seam line (lined with yellow) buti couldn't put it on the leg frame. so i removed some parts from it (marked with red) making it like an exhaust of some sort make you see thru the internal na rin.

actually i don't know what that tool is called, basta it comes with the rest of the tools found on a disecting kit. there's this one tool taht can be used for scribing into plastic, the long pointed one. that's what i used, scribed the seam lines till i cut throught them.

xentar, noel, mojacko thanks bros. @uj tsk tsk you really have a sharp eye on details huh? specially the crotch area? yup i didn't put it on yet, got one tiny part that i missed on painting. . . so expect update soon, including it's base/stand. have to finish the speigel in 2 weeks time and hopefully the qubeley too, else am busted for the mp in-house dps contest.  ninjago get one, it's very satisfying finishing a kit from building to painting. @dayco Nath pushed me to finish it men, that's why posted the pics even with the missing crotch! he's a sorth of the inspiration behind the leg armor mod. thank you bro for the compliment! good luck sa atin lahat for the bakuc.
