Hello RPV.

It has been rapidly getting colder recently, how are you all doing?

 

Now, this time, we will continue from the previous issue, completing the assembly of the figure.

Since the last time we were up to modifying and removing parts, we will start with the assembly process.

Where to start...

Hmmm, I think I will assemble the chest first.

Once the position of the first part is determined, the parts are assembled based on it as they are assembled.

As was the case last time, the first time is still the most crucial.

If the first one shifts, the others will shift too.

Here's the problem.

I photographed the parts without removing them from the runner. Articulated parts such as arms and legs had to be rotated and deformed to assemble.

I don't want to assemble the pieces as they are removed from the runner, so I don't think I can use the ones photographed while they are still on the runner.

Those that can be corrected are corrected, and those that are difficult are transformed and photographed again.

Once photographed, the assembly will resume.

In reality, I think we will be assembling the deformed parts with fine-tuning, but since the parts photographed cannot be moved, there will be some misalignment...

The 90° rotation or angling is not subtle enough or moved too much.

I feel bad, but I have no choice but to close my eyes and proceed.

I tried to make it as symmetrical as possible, redoing it many times, and managed to complete it.

The total number of parts used in the final product is 371.

 

It took quite a bit of time, but I am happy to see the finished product.

I thought it was done quite well.

On reflection, I should have made the skeleton first.

Since I started attaching and assembling the chest part first, it happened that the arms assembled first collided with each other when I was assembling the legs.

 

I started over, thinking that I had made it all the way through.

I thought I learned once, but I didn't spread my arms wide enough, and I made the same mistake with my lumbar...

The waist is wider than expected, isn't it?

I even colored it at the end.

It looks cool without coloring, but it has a different quality.

The colors are slightly different, but I did my best to bring them together.

 

I personally think that I have improved from the last time as this is the second time.

I would like to try again if I have the chance. See you then.
