Just about finished with the shoulders, figured I would show how I mounted the Hayabusa Shoulders to the MKVI shoulder
First I built the HD model of the MKVI biceps minus the MKVI shoulder part, then I cut 2 pieces of metal from a piece of aluminum flat bar because it is light weight, bent the aluminum to take place of the MKVI shoulders and screwed them into place, I used hinges on the back of the Hayabusa shoulders to mount them to the aluminum bar, also the hinges will allpw the shoulder pieces to lay flat naturally on each other, plus by not mounting them to the MKVI shoulder they don't stick out as far, I noticed a few builds where the shoulders look like they stick out to far when mounted to the MKVI original shoulder guard, anyways here are a few pics of what im talking about
Pic with the bar screwed in, you can't see the screws when the shoulders are attached, sorry for the dark pic forgot to turn on the flash
Front view with shoulders attached
Back side of the shoulder
This shows how the shoulders move up and down by using the hinges
Both shoulders are about ready to be painted, just a few little spots to sand then painting time, Im going to paint the shoulders with a metalic dark grey color, I think it will go good with the white armor parts.
Both thighs are now painted, well white at least still need to add the black detail painted parts then they are done
The helmet is ready for paint also finally done with all the body work, all I have left to do is add the details that are on the crown part before I put the final paint colors on, sorry no pics of the thighs or helmet, I'll take pics of those later
