Chrelle Posted January 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 After tweaking the biceps a bit, I decided I was satisfied with the fit and prepared my bicep pieces for gluing: Then I glued the first coverstrip onto the biceps: ...and the second one: So when the glue is fully cured, the biceps should be completely done - meaning all my arm pieces are finished! While the E6000 on my biceps cured, I decided to get to work on the shins. I trimmed the front part first, then put on some painter's tape to allow me to start fitting them. This is how they look so far: Front: Side view: The backs: If you guys think the shins seem to have a nice fit, I plan on trimming the back of the shins next. I do need your collective wisdom for some help, though. I measured the overlap between the shin pieces on the back, and it is 50mm, but with a taper towards the bottom. So, in order to get a nice, even and centered cut line on the back, I need to trim a 25mm wedge from both pieces - as least as far as I can tell. I would really appreciate some tips on how to go about this Here is a picture, I hope it explains what I mean: I can't wait to hear your input Sincerely, -Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novak Dimon[TK] Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) I cut my shins that way that the top rim is symmetrical. Everything else is concealed by the cover stripe.
