I'd love to see a step by step assembly for the THI suits as well. I found them to be just as difficult or more so than Barker ZosaBlack Kestrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02552467849799498002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7578442879065078922.post-82983939383153482962013-09-26T12:39:42.176-07:002013-09-26T12:39:42.176-07:00Great comment Dai, thanks for posting!

This is the one mini I found was rather simple to put together (The Grendlr was another matter.). <br />I managed to get it to work a little differently from your method – <br />1. glue the pelvis to the frame (I originally had the torso glued to the pelvis then stuck in place against the frame, but had troubles getting the back to fit flush against the shallow peg. So gluing the pelvis first allowed me to position the torso accordingly to get the best fit.<br /><br />2. for the legs, after clearing the flash, I actually stood them up and matched them to the knee joints and did both at once to make sure he’d stand properly. It meant holding the model in place for a bit while the glue dried, but it seemed an easy way to make sure his legs were on evenly for the pose.<br /><br />Still, as with your other guides (Most of which were great help btw!), this is well done and simple to follow. Will you also be offering a step by step painting guide for this lovely sculpt? The studio paint job is gorgeous, but it’d be interesting to see how you take care of all the strange angles, nooks and crannies it has. <br /><br />Cheers.<br />Daihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978439841611727387noreply@blogger.com
