What the title says!
I have just permanently attached the left arm, and with that done, all that remains is the final once-over, and the attachment of the antennae. The pauldrons will be painted separately and attached once the shoulder "joints" are painted and weathered. Insofar as the latter are con- cerned, I should point out that I elected to remove the bas-relief "underscored H" on the left pauldron as, once painted, its relative height would create a disproportionate--and distracting!--contrast. As there is no real evidence supporting that this was a cast artifact, the insignia will
be replaced in paint.
And after much deliberation, the base selection has been made, and the groundwork fitted to the same: over half the resin of the base has been ground off! There will be minor shimming with MS to be done before the groundwork enhancement can begin in earnest.

The next entry in this project will be the first in the painting thread: PRIMING. . . and possibly undercoating!
Stay tuned!
