god bless ebay

how do these ones look?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Circular-Disc-Rod ... 518b4c97bf

he has a whole mess of other ones too if those arent right, but from the weight they can pull and their size, they should be good for the arms, perhaps slightly bigger ones for the head :)

its not that its hard work or anything, im just incredibly paranoid that im going to mess something up and ruin it, so im checking every thing about 5 times over


on a related note to checking things, does the hull always mis-match at join points? did a dry fit of everything and theres a gap between the rear section and the forward section (with the shoulders on), nothing major, will be covered by the guns


and thinking it over, i think im just going to hard point the weapons, this isnt for gaming, its purely for display (getting a new computer desk, so it will reside over me) so theres no need for transport


come on everyone, shout up, im a pain in the rear :P

ok, legs are assembled and primed, the shin guards and thigh plates are cleaned up, and are in line for the next priming session

the shoulders are cleaned and again in line

will be scrubbing up the rest of the main body tomorrow, as well as the head, i believe ive rid it of most of the flash and lines, but those i cant scrape/file off, i'll cover with plasticard, so its all good :)


now im getting further into it, im getting a bit more confident :D

next one up, Mars Warhound! XD

oh wait, i was being serious :P

with regards to your balance concerns nige, the hip is tilted backwards ever so slightly :P

that wasnt actually intentional, i just noticed it when i checked it

and and, my ''secret weapon'' just arrived courtesy of armorcast :D

bit smaller than i thought >_>

but, never the less, i can make use of them, if not on the titan then on a dev squad :P

ok, got my magnets this morning courtesy of an ebay guy

10x4mm

20 of them

by the throne these are far far too strong for the titan arms... takes a considerable force to prize them apart, and even more to remove them from my radiator >_>

will re-order on monday...
