Bolt Builds Commander Bacara + P2 ROTS Grunt

[Bolt_2112]

Some more progress



Biceps cleaned up, sized and assembled



Forearms sized and assembled also, compad glued on. (Elbows cleaned up)



My compad is going to be a bit different this time around, I'm making a fully functional one which will have a sound board attached, as well as a push-to-talk button for the microphone located in my helmet. 

The buttons I cut out have been glued to an old phone screen protector, this will be mounted to the forearm and have the actual buttons located beneath.





More on the compad later when I get it set up correctly

I cleaned up the thighs, tested and added joining strips and assembled. Note the angular cut I made on the join. This was to retain the shape, as if I did a vertical join, I would have lost detail and the two halves would not have come together neatly.





I've also assembled one shin. It didn't come together as neat as I like, but it's okay, I'll fix that when we sludge the joins. 

  Still waiting on the spoons for my shins to arrive. When they do I will do a post on the shins specifically as they can be tricky.


And the chest and back have been cleaned up and just need a final sand + the slots cut for the shoulder straps.



Also waiting on the Bacara specific parts to arrive from Chris. He is getting his Bacara approved first, which will ensure that his parts are approvable. That's his excuse anyway, I think he just wants to beat me 

Vode An!
