SHITS HAPPEN!: Lost an important part to the FATUM Unit of my IJ!

As I finished sanding the last few parts of the FATUM/Backpack of my IJ this afternoon, I noticed that I am missing something...below is a scan of a manual from DALONG.NET, I encircled the part that is missing..





I was about to panic because I wanted to finished working on the backpack before the year ends. BUT! Instead of panicking at my room like hell, I decided to think of a way to somehow IMPROVISE the missing part. I then decided to use an old/unused PC/Polycap from my SF kit..and here it is..




I then cut the upper part using my hobby knife, and shaved it to fit in the wings at the backpack, glued it afterwards using a super glue (Mighty Bond)..




Test fitted it, and it perfectly fits! yay! :3


Lesson learned! If you happen to lost a part on your kit, don't panic yet, instead..think of a way on how to somehow "improvise" that missing part! ;)..till then! :)

WIP: Operation AMRe: MG ARF Update #4

Hi guys! Finally! an update for this guy :). Been very busy on some school related stuffs like working on our Graduation Multimedia Presentation during our Graduation Rites, and I'm also in charge on our Digital Annual/Year Book of our batch, so Mr. Pink is super busy atm! Since our Team is on a break as we speak, I decided to work on my Astray. So, here's what I did this afternoon after eating lunch and the past few days :). First of, I used the Kotobukiya Piston's I ordered last week from  Sir Migs/M1gs  to somehow add detail(s) on the waist part of my ARF. I still plan on adding more details to it. That's it for now. Then after attaching the upper body on the waist, I noticed that the left leg is a bit wiggling for some reason. Until I checked it out and I found a broken peg :O Well, luckily I remembered that we had a 'how-to-fix-a-broken-peg' topic before on our Facebook Group. So I gathered up all the materials that I'll be needing on r...
