Main foot almost done…

So, after completing (!) my center foot, I decided to keep on doing the footwork..

Got most parts of the left foot shell done, and did a test fitting with my motor holder!

Skinning was a bit tricky, but it seemed to work out ok!

As you can see, I don’t have my half-moon yet. I used the resin half-moons I had on the center foot, completely forgot that I had foot places for the center foot. This one, I haven’t decided if I should scratch build or not =)

Center foot done!

So, got my center foot done today!

It needs a little filling putty on the underside and a touch more sanding, but I am really pleased with it!

Apart from that I also continued skinning the legs and almost made a foot shell for the main foot, until I realised I had an error in my measurements. Seems my feet will be 6mm longer than official blueprints, but who will notice 😉

So: now for a few hours sleep then it’s time to fly to Gothenburg and be a guest at a talkshow!

Legs galore!

So, finally got around to sand down my other leg and both motor holders.

That, and I continued working a little on my center foot, which is my next project =)

Thought I’d post a pic of the styrene build so far!

Skins not included in the pic!

Starting to look a bit familiar!
