well... Thank you !
If you are working on your 1:1 blaster... you are way better suited to correct and Modify the Scouts outfit! Having a Full size suit... is just the Best way to make sure you don't miss anything..... I just wish my wife would not Leave me.. if I ordered one... LOL but that's another story!
As far as moving or adjusting the poses... on the 1/10 AMT dudes... if you plan to totally gut out the armor... and just fill-in the MEAT later on.. with APOXIE Putty from AVES. that's gonna be a big job.... but you would have full control on what you want him to look like.
I corrected most of the parts; but obviously not all of them and to various degree of correctness... as you MOTTO says.. Build for yourself !
I will tell you that after CUTTING the whole figure... I filled every parts I had with APOXIE PUTTY... once harden I drilled them in the center and glued in pins made out of 12 gauge household wire.
I was able to move, rotate and adjust the pose I needed... then used C.A. Glue to fix it in place and then merged all the parts with more APOXIE Putty to secure the Stance...and blend the parts together....
Once satisfied... I sanded and filled until the parts look good enough for Casting...
I later made molds and Cast my parts out of resin... if more adjustments were needed I just Cut and repositioned the resin part...and so on.... much easier ... Apoxie Putty is your friend.. and its cheap !!!
I work very slowly and this is why I took almost 2 years to make all those guys...
I made the Sniper using the way you mentioned... putting putty onto a wire frame till I had the shape I needed... I keep working at him.. trying to make him the best one... but he is very demanding... and basically made of Apoxie putty by now..... there are not too many parts that are original on him let me tell you...
all my Bikers are 100% Resin !
I guess you can surf the Photo bucket... I went thru many modifications over the years...
the photos at the top are the latest work....
My original AMT scout will go under the knife soon ! and get equipped with my new Helmet...
So he can be set next to the others and look the part !
take care... and Best of luck !!!
