Devil Gundam: Thigh Scratch Building [Leg Modification - Part 8]

Hi guys!

Today I will copy paste the thigh I scratched build yesterday. So here are my updates today for the Project Devil Gundam!

There are several methods you can do to copy paste pla plate. For this one I will use a double tape and then retrace the outline.

I tried to get as close as possible to the original piece. But if there is any mistakes I could file it down a little bit later after I cut this piece off.

At a glance the retracement wasn't very spot on but I can adjust it later using file and hobby knife.

For this thigh scratch build I will need 4 pieces of pla plates like this which will make 1 set of thigh (right and left).

Before cutting the pla plate using hobby knife I made sure I retrace the outline using scribing pen one more time then increase the depth a little using hobby knife.

If I don't retrace the outline deep enough, stress marks will appear when I use hobby knife to cut this off.

The copy is not exactly perfect so I will need to adjust it a little using file and hobby knife then clean it up.

I've cleaned up the edges after adjusting it with the original piece. I think it is better to use ruler when doing this sort of scratch build.

It might provide more precision compared to using double tape and retrace the outline of the original piece.

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

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