Ello guys I managed to cut the thick armors of the PG MKII yesterday and today. Kinda slow coz the armors are really thick and I am not really comfortable with this kind of mod. I first scribed some panel lines on the part to be cut and then saw it with my Hasegawa saw... I then cleaned it up with a file and an art knife.
I will then have to add a few pla plating to maintain consistency with the torso mods and I might scribe a few panel lines and some MSG option parts also. I friggin' ran out of Tamiya thin cement thus I could no longer detail this kit today. Well, at least I am back to working on this kit again.
This kit will not have much detailing coz the client wants it in Titans color, thus I am afraid the dark color scheme will just hide the pla plating if I add too much. Anyways, here are some pics of the armor cutting...
I scribed panel lines before cutting as a guide later...
A few thick 1.2mm pla plates before running out of thin cement...
