I feel for you @MechTech to have a life long buddy and see them just fall apart before your eyes is extremely heart wrenching. Yet, It is so wonderful to see how much you appreciated and enjoyed Shadow’s company, as well as Butters, throughout his lifetime. Hang in there, it takes time to heal as you will never miss him and just look back fondly on all the great times you guys had together. RIP Shadow.❤️

Time to start working on the arms. They don’t quite match the overall changes made thus far.

Not fully polished look but it does hold together on it’s own and the landing gear hold it up securely.

Landing gear are secured and with plenty of room underneath for a gunpod. Pew pew!

What an amazing set. It’s so impressive to see how many people there still are who greatly appreciate it and are willing to give so much time to complete it. Kudos.

Comes apart and can be put together with ease.

Underpinnings.

Battroid?!?!

GERWALK!

Fighter mode.

Mee too.

Changing the profile of the fighter to appear more aerodynamic. After. Before.

The intake covers are nice and flush with new intakes roughed in. Chest can finally lock down in fighter mode. Will reshape the side profile just a bit to mesh everything from front to back together properly.

@MechTech I figured as much. Not really in a huge rush to get this done. Just trying to incorporate ideas to this old mold to not only improve it but to create most every gimmick that has never been done e before. Plus it’s a great way to pass the time and get creative.

I would use dish soap and mix with powder to pronounce details. It also serves well to create grease stains depending on the color of the powder. Best part is you apply it to your finished and sealed model. If you aren’t happy with the result, you can always remove it easily with a damp or dry cloth.
