Hey everyone, I have been a lurker for sometime here scared to post. But i will never get any better without building and getting C&C. So as the title says, "First custom." :3
Fist idea was to cut out this part in the chest. It maybe left how it is or i will try some pla plate work.
Next up was the knee i had wanted to cut them from the start then found ways people did and did it myself. I feel they came out good, but would like to mod it so the top moves with the leg.
Moving on i have the feet which i ran out of luck with Tamiya putty. The store here is having problems getting their stuff in. So i used Green Stuff not sure how i am liking it... I think it will be fine when i go out and get some lower girt sandpaper so i can shape it better.
Then some shaping to the face on the vents i didn't like how it was on the normal Dynames face.
I feel i will drop the two joints for the legs to give him a bit more length.

Thank you!
The foot shaping is done i think they came out well. Green stuff seems to work well, but sanding is a pain..
Pla-plate work need to remove the rest of the glue.
The the MG leg armor style mod. Could have came out cleaner :bao_50:

Thank you!
Update:
Pla-Plate: I will work on it when i finish the back skirt.
Shoulders: Are driving me crazy trying to come up with something
Chest: Thinking of a mod with the GN drive since the thrusters have taken its place.
Back skirt: Waiting for parts to come in for this mod.
Legs: Still need to cut and drop the ball joints. Have been thinking of using Tamiya cement, but i don't think it will hold if i need to remove a leg. So still need to go get some epoxy.

Just waiting for the Green Stuff to cure and then i will start to sand to get it a more clean look. I will also cut the pegs of and move them back so they won't get in the shoulders way.

Woah, GN drive mod not sure if i like it or not. I have liked this type of shaped chest on mecha for sometime. I had the idea for this after having the GN just sitting there. Then i broke the chest from removing it a bit to much, yet and easy fix just some glue. So i cut the rest off of the main and just and use masking type to put the GN on it. So this is just a mock-up for now.
Not sure?

Edit: This Chest was scraped I didn't like it.New chest work still needs a lot of work sanding and adding detail.
New Chest made from pla-plate.
This Chest mod can be taken off it is glued to the part that goes around the neck. More pics to come to show how it was done.

Sorry for not updating i have gotten sick and my wisdom teeth are killing me hoping for some meds if i can't get in soon.
The chest mod as you can see it still needs to be cleaned up. I didn't take my time with glue which i have learned from now. The back side of it really doesn't matter as you wont be able to see it but i would still like to be just cleaner if i do anything like this next time.
So when i start to feel better more clean up and then detail adding for it. I think it will clean up good after primer.
