So I've been buidling the Friedrich (as part of the Küster & Friedrich set by Wave)... if I can still call it that.
I've been making some... well I hesitate to call them improvements, but changes anyway.
While building this guy I felt like I wanted more room to paint... Kind of a stupid reason maybe, but I thought it might be cool to close the side windows and make the front hatch out of steel. Added a little handle (on the right side so it's easy to reach on the 'hand' side of the suit). and an extra camera on the top (I've been assuming the thing in his chest is a set of optics too)... connecting these to his visor I figured he didn't need no stinking windows (Am I taking this too serioulsy?).
Anyway I used green stuff, vallejo putty and a lot of sandpaper to fill in the windows after I glued then in of course.
It's now ready to paint the inside.
Still thinking about whether to put on the curved bars that usually go there (like on the ketzer) but since it doesnt' have those windows... it doesn't really need them anymore...
What do you guys think? Did I just ruin a perfectly good Friedrich, or full steam ahead (not like there's any going back on this)?
Comments are more than welcome.
