LEGS
- The legs
are the most problematic part of this model. The
heavy weapon system that this mobile suit holds on
its back, gives the model a very precarious
stability, making a fall backwards almost
inevitable. To remedy this situation, I inserted
inside the lower parts of the legs two heavy iron
nuts, which fit right in the space left between the
feet and the knee joints. Another problem are the
feet, which have a very limited movement allowed. I
solved this problem moving each foot junction with
the leg down for about 5 mm. Actually it's quite
easy, because, as anybody can see having the model
in his hands, there are already the holes where to
insert the foot junction pegs. In the upper part I
opened a large hole for the b-joint connecting the
leg with the lower body. New soles and a few opened
air intakes completed the task.
WEAPONS - Of all the weapons and
paraphernalia that this mobile suit carries along
the one that I modified more is the shield. I
started opening two air intakes in the front and I
went on redoing the entire backside, with new
openings and a couple of new parts. The bazooka and
the beam rifle needed only some cleaning and
refining.
