Refining. It's actually kind of fun to take work in progress shots. Then I can see what used to be, and what improvements were made. I like how lean and big chested it is in this picture.
Shape is really important for me. If the shape is right, the rest flows into place. For this particular build, the construction is centered around the cornerstone white cockpit design. Without finding a solution on how to stack two tiles in this way, I would never have continued with this concept.
Other things to note, this build is far more complicated than the 1/44 RX-78, which this frame is based off. It will still be 1/144 as well, just more detailed and edgy, a hard thing to do at this scale.
Movement is going to be improved too. I came up with a double joint system while building another secret mech, and I've adopted the technique here. Perhaps in the future I will take a few "how to" shots on how to do this double joint thingy. Then perhaps people will use less of those "horrendous" T joints in their mechs. Well, to each their own.
Wow this is getting to be a long info blurp. Anyways, I dislike showing joints. T joints, I virtually refuse to use. That may be how I set my mechs apart from other frames out there.
