Slapped some putty on the legs:
…and then smoothed it out when set, to give new, improved, bulkier thighs.
And added some more small details on the hammer:
Assembled the hips and upper legs, but realised that the waist joint was too long, so sawed it off and reattached the ball joint directly to the pelvis:
Started basic shaping of the lower legs:
Started on the shoulder pads:
And discovered when I tried dry-fitting the shoulder pads that the shoulders were sitting too low, and were too wide.
So I sawed off the dread’s original shoulder joints, and added a plate of plasticard over the resultant hole.
Need to smooth and fill around it, and then the arms can be reattached at a better height.
Started bulking out the lower legs:
Gap-filled the shoulder pads and added a gubbin on the back to attach to the shoulders:
Re-pinned the arms in the new, up-higher position:
And filled the torso sides where the plasticard was added, and added some extra length to the belly ring, as it was too narrow (still needs sanding down):
This bit’s always fun: He’s all tacked together, to see how he looks standing up…
