Beta Ray Bill - Prepwork

The prepwork has begun! The figure's mounting pegs have been permanently attached, and it is now on its working base. . .

I've begun by filling, burnishing, and/or filing the superficial dings and imperfections that are the byproduct of any predominantly-lead figure. I've also filled the handful of minor air bubbles and surface irregularities on the resin cape.

Next, I've drilled out the bars of the mouth, reworked the lateral volumes of the 'helmet', and refitted the wings.

Finally, I restored the damage done to the collar area while removing the head, and refitted the latter. 

Movin' right along. . .
