Devil Gundam: Scratch Building Piston [Leg Modification - Part 36]

Hi guys!

Today I clean up yesterday's last piece for the piston. So here are updates on Project Devil Gundam!

I start with the top of the piston using file then sanding stick.

As you can see there I only need to clean up a little bit. Since the circles are quite align properly.

Also using this method is way easier compared to the previous one. Where I had to reshape the whole piston after cementing it.

This before and after cleaning up the whole piece. Notice there are quite a bit of lead marks left in between the layers?

Since I will be painting this, I would worry about it.

I use the rod as a mean to hold the piston while I clean the surface using sanding sponge.

Since the piece is quite small so the rod really helps me on cleaning process.

Tomorrow I will start assembling the piston together.

And maybe do a quick test fit with the waist and thigh.

I still need to think how will I connect this piston to the bottom leg so that it can have that sliding motion. But I can see that the leg is slowly taking shape.

So this is my updates for today on this Devil Gundam x Neue Ziel Project.

Keep on building! Keep on steeming! Have a nice day!
