Made some more progress today
I designed the greeblies for the shins and upper arm in AutoDesk and printed them during the week. Today I mounted them and the straps.
I admit I went a bit crazy with the weathering on the straps... but hey if they were my boots they certainly wouldn't be a clean as the ones pictured in the CRL!
For the shins there were 2 greeblies per side. A small clip and a large one.
The CRL shows the large clip with an extra semicircle tab on the bottom of the greeblie, from the Bluray stills and magazine images I have (as you can see below) it isn't present, so I left it off.
Next up is the left bicep, I glued on the straps and added my "Com paks" (Courtney called them that and I like it.. so I'm using it)
On the reverse side of the bicep I noticed another discrepancy in the CRL. They forget to mention the grey box present there.
You can clearly see it in this freeze frame:
Currently working on the back plate, using ABS sludge to sturdy up the shoulder straps. Then it will be onto the tank detail panel!
That's all for now
