I've started shooting photo-comics of my toys as a hobby, but sadly Arcee, one of my favorite subjects, is so kibbly that it makes her a bit hard to work with. I'm willing to buy a second one and strip her of her alt mode to make her more photogenic......basically I would like to know how I'd do that without damaging her (other than, you know, removing the kibble).
As a bonus question, you can see RIGHT through that hole in Animated Blackarachnia's neck, and shooting from an angle to hide it restricts me something awful. Anyone know a good way to fill up the gap without restricting her neck posability at all? For instance, is there a type of putty I could get to fill it that wouldn't stand out, wouldn't dry out and harden, and wouldn't damage her paint job or plastic? |

I'm worried that food colored silly-putty with rub off on Blackarachnia's paint, so I'd like to hear more before I try that. I also would still like advice on how to alter Arcee. Should I just take an exacto-knife to the bits I don't want? Will I need any other tools? | |

Get you a dremel to cut off the unwanted pieces on Arcee.

In other words,you can get them for pretty cheap.I also believe that Harbor Freight has a rotary tool for about $15.

What would be the more likely place to have a good cheap one; Michael's craft store or Home Depot? | |
