      Update: I've taken the pics, and found a few more issues you'll need to address.

      Uh, it was HLJ. I've told you this at least twice before.

      I should have it done by then, looking at the kit parts, most of it actually goes into the boosters that get put aside for the conversion, and there's a chest sticker that will save me some paint time. Again, I totally apologize, had this arrived like it should have a week ago I would have more than enough time to have completed it by now.

      Guess who FINALLY showed up the DAY BEFORE I leave for College. I'm not going to have time to build Archer, much less even try to get it to the point where I can have it built and ready to go to test the conversion parts unpainted, but I can get the gun handle checked at bare minimum. As for when I can have everything you want done in picture form, the best estimate I can give you is mid-late September since I only come home for three weeks and I won't have my model building supplies at my dorm.

      That GN Condenser must SUCK then, since it's been three weeks!

      Many appologies, I've been getting ready to go back to college, so taking the pictures completely slipped my mind. I'll have them for you be the end of the day, I swear.

      Also, the GN Archer still hasn't arrived, so chances are it's going to be a long while before I can get this thing even bloody started in constructing it.

      Huh. It's possible the extra part is left over from the manufacturing process, I'll point it out when I get those pics ready to show you.

      And you're right about the gun, the pincers are a bit more to the robot's right. I was looking at the robot from the front, so that might have been confusing.

      The tendrils were there, they just appear to have broken off where they connect to the helmet as they fell out of the bag when I was dumping the parts out. One of the interior heads also came off the sprue, but at the point I was supposed to cut it off and is otherwise undamaged and useable. I personally don't mind, since I wasn't going to use the tendril head anyway, but for your purposes I'll do my best to salvage it.

      Also, comparing your pincers on the gun to the official art and the customized GN Archer on the Wiki, it appears the pincers are actually slightly off center to the left a bit instead of being dead center like yours, but otherwise the details are correct, so just nudge the pincers over to the left and you'll be more accurate.

      Okay, the camera is waiting on some batteries to finish charging before I can take the shots, so I decided to do a full inspection of the parts beforehand. Everything looks to be in order EXCEPT the "Trial" tendrils. Turns out they broke off in the middle of being transported despite both sprues being held in thick bubble wrap, and they appear to have cleanly broken off where they connected to the helmet as I can't really make out any rough spots where they came off. I MAY be able to fix them, but I'll need your Sketchup pic for the Trial mode helmet to try and figure out where to glue them back on. Oh, and I think I'll need a map as to where some of these parts actually go on the GN Archer as I'm not QUITE sure where that one frosted detail part (the one that's not a wrist, helmet half, face, or kneecap) is supposed to go exactly...

      Sure thing, I'll get those up for you a bit later.

      Homework? Do you not have a summer vacation? Or is that over?

      Also, My tank is done for the most part and i'm debating if I should order it now or later. And the shields for the arms are up. /plug

      Okay, the Shapeways order has arrived at my house safe and sound, both Sprues, so now I'm just waiting on the GN Archer kit to arrive before I can start fulfilling my end of the deal, as IIRC you wanted a pic of the stock GN Archer with the unpainted parts.
    14. prime13

      Ah. That makes sense, because if that were important i'm sure you would not have missed it.

      And I guess I should get to opening a shop on Shapeways...

      Oh, Treadshot. I noticed that your adapter doesn't have that 1x1x3 peg that prevents the piece from rotating. Was that intentional?

      I KNEW it was Shrapnel! That's an amazing custom Treadshot! Nice to see someone who turns Bumblebees into cool stuff instead of whining about how many there are like everyone else. :lol

      If I may ask, who's in your avatar? It kinda looks like Shrapnel!

      Just a heads up, shapeways sent me an e-mail letting me know my order is in production and should be shipped out within the week. GN Archer was shipped out like, a week ago or something, so I SHOULD be able to get Artemie done by the 17th at least

      My mind doesn't sense such complicated things yet. :lol

      You think that Bandai is going to make an Adele MkII? Even thoughit only appeared two or three times? Then again, they made the Gouf custom... But that was a lot more badass. And yes I do. >:I

      Full armour G-exes Terra?

      Is it the guns? I think it's the guns.
