Default RE: Scale poseable pilot making

Bambam, do you mean how do you put the arms, boots, gloves etc onto the end of the limbs? If so, the accessories are hollow cast and slip over the ends of the foam body parts. The wire will need to be trimmed off first. I hope I understood your question correctly.


I have tidied up the wax of 1/4 scale Stew and moulded that yesterday so now it's basically ready for painting. I've also been working on the Richtoffen jacket and will have a look at his face that needs some "tweaking".
Doc, thanks for the offer of the photos, I'll keep that in mind.

Greg - we're cutting the other half of the 1/6 this week and then will make the mould so I'll let you know when that's ready, hopefully about a week. There have been the usual "silly season" interruptions so not quite as much work being done on the pilots as usual but that's life

cheers
Patti
