I have fitted the cushion/pillow to the subject's back and the back of the chair for a seamless fit. The cushion will be painted separately before permanently attaching to the painted figure.
I have also begun cleaning and fitting of the motor/engine components. This will be assembled, pre-fitted and painted as a separate subassembly prior to attachment.
UPDATE - 04.04.11. . . Continue to work on the face. . . trying for a slightly annoyed/stern look, yet comely. In order to get a better perspective on the piece, I removed the fez, and began roughing-in the coiffure. The fez has been reduced in height by about 30%, and hollowed out for a keyed connection. Also, I roughed-in the port-side iron plate for the motorized "scooter".
UPDATE - 06.04.11. . . The coiffure is done, and thus, so is essentially the head. What a difference!!! Also done and ready for "mounting" (i.e., addition of nuts and rivets) is the port-side iron plate. The starboard-side iron plate is now roughed-in and curing.
Movin' right along. . .
