Improving the HG 1/100 Nataku - Part3

Dear Reader, please note that when you read this post, please click on the images with the text to see the texts better... I'm so sorry for this inconvenience
Alright now this is the final work on the shoulders...... I have to say.. I am happy that it comes out the way it is...

And now.. the Nataku is looking like this.....

I have to say, I love how that shoulder look.... more meaner...I was pretty satisfied with what i got so, i moved on to the waist..
And trust me, that was no easy task.. I had to research, research.... actually i was already research about those kind of mods since about 1 and half year ago but when I actually started to mod the waist, I was so scared that I need to double check everything.

And after pain-staking weeks of  aching eyes and head ache, here it is... the waist mod..
RIGHT... the very first thing i did was that i cut the body in half.... and put some pla-plates  as you can see from the picture...

It was hell cutting that two pieces... I saw to use a saw and saw away like crazy...
and the following picture shows a more-or-less detailed process of the construction and structure of the ''CUP'' the ball joint of the lower torso will go into...

putting them together... and voila...... this is how i made my upper torso..... ( don't worry, this is just a test fit... )

A ''Cup'' in the upper torso... which MG torso does this remind you of?? hehe.. consider this a quiz...

NEXT stop - a double ball lower torso....... stay tuned
