After remaking the arms so they were less chunky, I had to try and match the same thickness for the jet pack. After several considerations, I decided to make it with several layers. Although this meant a lot more work, I could finally use the bits of scrap plastic to pad the middle. Although a bit fiddly, it worked. I had to hold myself back from doing too much detail and add multiple layers. However after mounting it on the model, it looks too thin. So I may end up adding a thin layer to match the detail. However a I wanted the circular disc on the side, the detail would have to wait until I got a new batch of plastic rods. Hopefully the type of plastic is correct. All I need to do now is figure out how to make the weapon. |
