[WIP] FSS L.E.D MIRAGE B4 Part 1

One of my 2012 resolutions is to complete 1 FSS kit and so, work began on this kit.
Been working on it for the past week or so, try to do a few pieces a day (doesn't take up much time)

As this is my first attempt on a full resin kit, might have some mistakes with my procedures.
Started of with assembling the large parts (Head, body and legs). Double pin for extra support. At first I used only 1 pin which I think wasn't strong enough, so added a second pin.

Front and rear 'skirt' pieces do not have enough space for pinning, so temporary attached with blu tack.
Those multiple 'things' in the background also go onto the waist but also do not have enough space to pin, might have to source for a finer drill bit and thinner metal rod.

Back to the feet, double pin in the high heels.

The signature long 'feeler' of this kit. As the whole thing is only supported by the front area, added 3 pins to support. Size comparison with NG 1/100 OO Raiser in the background.

The arm pieces and shoulder armour. Quite tricky pinning and fitting the armour joints to the internal frame (Need to match the angles of the front and back pieces).

Will continue updating this post until whole kit dry fitted.
Thanks for looking!
