oookay time for some brain bleeding updates hahahah Head Mods:  for the face plate, i carved a third line  then vertical line on both ends.   sawed the long horn and reattached it back in a different position. applied epoxy clay on the back part.   remember the sawed off chest? it was restored by putting epoxy clay. some trimming, sanding, reapplying was done to get the desired shape.   Vfin   after long longlonglongasdnih48234 hours of aligning and measuring, i finally got satisfying result. bulked up cheek with putty. sanding madness for vfin lock to get the edges off. all for rule # 1. demn. hahahahah next would be neck mod and filling up holes, BIIIG HOLES! that would be all for now ty ;D |

alrighty! some updates ;D Patching Holes  putty on obvious holes on vfin, torso and back part of chest  the back part of chest: BEFORE  the original neck leans forward and back  with the head totally movable. i want my neck's articulation to be as real as possible. while waiting for putty to dry, i did some measuring and took some spare pc parts to be used for neck mod.  some trimming  shaving, sanding, reapplying epoxy clay and putty to get that flat look.  an obvious line -.- will sort out how to fix it.  chest internal cavities are patched with putty     front part of chest and head smothered with messy messy putty. will do some major sanding when dry.  as i was scavenging spare parts i noticed a very nice open hand from a 144 kit. now scoping on customizing the shoulder armor, skirt and hands. that would be all ty ;D |
