THUNDERBALL!!! – Prepwork (3)

  • Reworked and re-finished the attachment points between the two figures.
  • Began reconstruction of speargun: ~70% done.
  • Continued fine-tuning the SPECTRE diver's tanks. Just about there. . . 
  • Began finishing the propeller shroud [NB: This is the final version of the shroud--the MS one was too big; the brass tube was too small. . . the resin version was/IS just right.

With the shroud essentially finalized, it was time to turn my attention to the DPU. As I stated at the outset, the DPU will be enhanced, not rebuilt or replaced. And 'enhancement' might just do the trick! For starters, I have begun to increase the apparent circumference of the DPU. Once that is completed to my satisfaction, I will start tweaking the lines of the DPU itself, followed by the detailing of the shell of the DPU.

Phase 1A of the DPU is well underway!
