Been wanted to mod this cutie since I get my hands dirty with Koto option parts, but things getting out of hand, this kit is much smaller than I expected. Had to brain storming while cutting, sanding, & super glueing.
The reason I pick this kit is to test out how far my mod skill is.
& also wanted to make this kit pose like pic below, very nice pose eh.... Not very confident can do this..
So I started with saw out the side mini skirts. This side could hinder the extra movement that my custom "cut & paste" joints lolz !
Cement it & leave it dried for 2 days at least.
While waiting, start to think how to put the ball joint into this socket-look arm. So I saw it flat, sand the excess left, & making way for the ball joint to fit in.
Cut some length both the ball joint & palm's pegs so that 1 polycap is shared by 2 parts, only the joint part is super-glued inside the polycap. Not sure how long would it last though since polycap ain't hold long.
Test fit with arm, just right length. Nice ~
While mod, I notice that the ball joint alone is so farking short, can't even make a 90 degree bend.
Fark. I said again. Fark.
Had to butcher the peller model for the joint....
"Cut & paste" technique complete. Now gonna leave it a day see how it does when test fit on shoulder part & try to move it around.
I shouldn't do this while I'm out of idea. LoLz.
