Catwoman and 'Pod (3) - Selina

I have been working on Selina all along, time and circumstances permitting. Now the time has come to begin focusing on what will be the "centrepiece" of this vignette.

By way of recap, to-date I have:
  • Permanently assembled the legs to the torso.
  • Reworked the neck join to allow for a stand-alone head-neck unit.
  • All-but-completed the "conversion" ("the stock, short 'kitten'-heeled boots must be converted to the serrated stiletto-heeled, platform 'kinky boots' of the character..." ) of the left boot.

To the above I can now add:
  • All-but-completed the reanimation of the legs and fitting of the body to the Pod.
Both legs must be reanimated at the knees as well as the ankles. This is a tedious process given the inherent variability of fit of the various kit parts/subassemblies involved. Patience, commitment, and resiliency will be essential.

By way of "spoilers" to what lies ahead, I will mention that to maximize fit of the body to the Pod, I will have to add the omitted high-density foam inserts to the knee rests, as well as tweak the seat. But all in good time. . .

Stay tuned!
