"The Wolf Man"--Randy Bowen/Polar Lights: Assembly (2)--GRAPHICS

The assembly work has been all but completed. To recap, the waist joint--a keyed MS plug--and the pose has been finalized. While the feet have yet to be permanently attached, the tin solder pegs (extending to near the knees) have been permanently installed, and the "wolf"-leg bend through the metatarsals and paw countersunk (NOTE: yet to be filled).





There was very little work to be done on the shoulder girdle save pegging and permanently attaching (Zap CA+) the arms. The right wrist socket has already been drilled out. Fitting of the hand/s pending.

The head--or more accurately, the neck--is the one area still requiring putty work. I'm still tweaking the attitude of the head, but for all intents and purposes, the posing done. By the time I'm ready to post images, this should be done.



Finally, as can be seen in the first image, I have begun reworking the trousers (MS). The reworking of the drapery will be the most time consuming aspect of this project, but it should make all the difference in the world!

And the progress to date. . .



More to follow. . .
