I've made quite a bit of progress recently. The body has almost been completed. All that's left is the side skirts. I'll leave those till last as they look a bit vunerable. Here is the sequence.
He's got quite a belly on him
This all went smoothly and fitted well.
Then I fitted the first arm
Surprisingly this fitted quite easily, although it not that easy to get to the tabs once the arm is in place. The second arm is going to be a right so-n-so as the access is even more difficult (having filled in the handy hole in the shoulder !!)
The glove looks nice - the art work is particularly good some of the armour.
Now I'm about to find out why the instructions say fit the elbow guards and gloves before fitting the arm to the body :-?
The tabs are right between the arm and the body :cry: Just a tad tricky to get to.....
The lower body is completed now, and waiting for the leg armour.
I've found the some of the cuts can be a little out compared to the score lines. I reckon that this is the cutter being misplaced slightly as the score lines tally with the pattern on the front on the parts. However, I move the score lines so that the line up with the cuts; joins in the tabs, etc. It hasn't affected construction at all.
