Soaring

Yup, just as the title reads, this BE the Strike Noir build thread.
Some things I'd like to note about this model
-Tang did an excelent job on designing this
-The parts SEEM easy, I haven't really tried them out yet...
-Even though I said I tried it before, I did, but gave up....

-The templates are fantastic as well, however, some of the model runs of the page :S So bear with me :D
-----
For the Building Timeline...
Don't expect to have daily or weekly updates
Updates for this thread can come like...Once every day, then maybe the next update coming in one or two weeks
This is because I have other things to do :D

-------
Alright, So, Let's get started! On...THE HEAD! Yes!
Alright, so in a few minutes I'll have some done...Hope you're all watching =)

Let's see how far I go...

No, please don't misunderstand me, I mean, Tang must be happy to see a build thread on his design.

Alright, so I bet some of you thought I'd cut short there...Well, you're wrong :D I have a test tomorrow, so I'm studying for it tonight, after school tomorrow, on Friday, I'll finish up Strike Noir's head, then start on the chest :)

-_-....Alright, there's one major thing I must note on the HEAD! I messed up. (No picture of this) On the head, I believe it is...the second largest piece. One of the fold lines must be attached INWARD, so you can add some details and what not. I didn't do that, and after the glue dried, it was too late to redo, so, I'm reprinting it and starting over ;)

Alright, Ronin, this credit and model goes all to the thanks of Tang L.B, a fellow card modelist here at Zealot. I recieved it from him ^^

On to the Noir, this is how the neck piece should look.

Then, this piece should go ontop of the neck, it's a supporter I think...

Then, this is the back piece, which should be one of the three main parts to the head :/

Alright, DO NOT GLUE ANY PIECE At least not yet, I'm preshaping everything :p So, just pretend as if it's glue. Now, remember the Largest piece? The black largest? Well, it should go behind the head piece. Sorry, I'm bad at verbal instructions, so that's why these pictures are here :/
