Sinanju - Chest/Hipby *Destro2k

Artisan Crafts / Folding & Papercraft / Models

and it goes on

man, this step took me really long this time
but it was worth, the result looks just sweet

as always you can see the pieces of the chest-hip combo

the chest itself
the front attachments
the shoulders
and the pipes of the hip
(i didn't add this pieces the last time, because there were already enough

)

this time i made no piece overview of the pieces because the chest itself is based on just six pieces
the interesting part here is how to combine the shoulders to the torso

on page L and you can see it in the 3d view
there are two cylinders in the chest as an inner structure
i had no clue how i should build that so i made it my own way

first i changed the tabs and glued the cylinder inside of the outer chest parts
then i made a tube what fits into this cylinder and combined them with the shoulder parts

sadly i can't tell you how big this tube should be, it's something what you have to test out

also you have to look out that you get the right lenght, angle and stuff

the next photo shows an idea from a facebook friend
he suggested i should try to build a moving system for the chest-hip
it took me bit to figure out the right height and diameter of the tubes but it works very well
...
even there is no space for movements

i will explain later

but it's a good way if you wanna build an other SD Gundam to get a bit life into this static models

by the way, the bigger tube has to be on the bottom (left piece)

the next photos
the "golden" front attachments
and the side pipes

the original pipes were just ugly to build
you can see it that the open sides sometime on top and some other are underneath

i used two paper stripes to combine them together
but i prefere if you are at this point, to draw youself some tabs
also i will edit the sheets a bit that you just have to add edge on edge

next problem
in the 3d model the pipes are going through the "containers"
but i can do this too

i made some holes into them and just put them inside

p.s.
you should do this before you add the containers to the hip

last picture
the final torso

p.s.s.
here you can see what i mean that it's actually not possible to move the chest
but that is no problem
the important thing is that i "could" do it if i want
