Minor modification will enhance the finish of your model. |

I thought the grooves weren't
sharp enough, so I deepened
it a little by using the back
side of sharp design knife,
which is much like Exacto
knife. |

Fig.1.1 Welded parts

The back side of each part were
painted black so that it will be
less noticeable when the model is
complete. |

The plates, covering cheeks,
looked too thick and dull, so
I used a needle file to make
them thinner. |

Even though this is a glue kit,
most of the parts can be used
for the test fit of the kit.
Check the dimensional
balance of the model, and
modify the kit if necessary. I
personally don't like overly
long legged skinny
appearance, so I don't think
this kit needs any
modifications in terms of
proportion. |

The shoulders don't look
right since the front and rear
armors are supposed to be
attached to the joint, but
they're attached to the large
solder armor instead. The
example in Hobby Japan
corrected this problem, and
you might want to check it out
for your reference. |
