Let the 'labor pains' begin. . . Prepwork I

While I stand by my original assessment re: the quality of the castings, it is never that easy. . . not if you want to do it right. 

To date:

  • The groundwork has been assembled.
  • The head and the left arm have been pegged with tin solder.
  • The left hand has been permanently attached to the left arm.
  • The right foot has been pegged: “dogleg” mounting peg made from a large "non-skid" paper clip.
  • General clean-up has begun. . .  

My only criticism to date is the absence of a positive interface between the figure and the supporting wall.
