Under Shoulder Detail

Decided that the under shoulder sockets for the Stabilisers, definatly needed covering up! Wasn't going to attempt to filler/smooth them out any more. So am going with the 'silver' look version.

I made a carboard template of the socket and transfered the outline onto some thin metal plate. I then bent them to fit and will glue them into place with araldite once painting has been completed.

Had to do a bit of filling round the edges of the shoulder plates for them to be a push fit into their recesses.

Just a mock-up of stabiliser fitted.

All will then be glued in place once leg is finally sprayed up with clear.
