Lots of clean up work and then I did some dry fitting to see how I wanted the legs to stand. I pinned these once I was happy by drilling a hole through the two parts, cutting a 1/8" metal rod to fit and affixing with a two-part epoxy. I think the resin would break before the joint did so I'm quite happy with the strength. The model is going to be very heavy so I don't want anything to be weak. You can see a hole in the knee where the rod goes but this will be covered with the knee armour plating later.
You know you are working at a big scale when it takes a 1/8 metal rod to pin something!
ReplyDeleteLol very true. Pulling out a large hack saw also is convincing.
DeleteI'm fascinated by titans without armor plating. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteIt's always cool how much detail there is beneath the plates.
DeleteThat is looking fantastic - awesome work!
ReplyDeleteSomething to tide me over. I'm waiting on a pre-order of Kingdom Death for later...
