    Thanks!

    Also, thanks to this project, I've figured out how to dismantle an MP-10 piece by piece......

    I may need you to send this to me once completed...you know, to verify that the white isn't visible in alt mode...

    I'll send pics. :D 

    Actually, the base figure was a KO MP-10A.

    :)  That reminds me, I gotta remove that BAPE logo off the KO next.

    Just did a test fit to see if it worked out like I thought it would.

    I know I missed the panel on the bottom, but I think this is coming along nicely :)  Just waiting on some emblems to come in.

    Thanks man :)  I got one set of emblems in, waiting on another set to see which one I want to use. I've got the BAPE logo removed from his right shoulder and I gotta redo his forearm piece that house his newly acquired eness black poseable hands (originally for MP-10B).

    Here's a dry fitting for the first piece. And yeah, I know it's not centered....but if I went with this one, it will be :)

    And I'm sure you'll notice, I had to modify the peg a little to get the eness hands to fit on the KO. Oh well....gotta repaint that part anyway after smoothing out the top of the forearm piece (since what I wanted to do with it didn't work out too well) :D

    Thanks. I had to go a different direction for the hands. The modification to the pegs where the hand sits on made it too thin and I think with enough "playing" around with it, it'll snap eventually. Here's a test shot with the emblem attached (thank goodness for Dremels!)

    I still have some touchups and such I need to do before I can say this is finished.

    No, it's not done yet.....almost there.

    (No official Prime was harmed in the production of this custom.......with the exception of a junker YOTH Prime....yeah, no one really cares about that guy...)

    Thanks man :)  I just went off of the comic deco of him having black on his arms, torso, and thighs with white gloves from forearm down. There were plenty of other artists' renditions I could have based this off of (all of them badass might I add), but.....I figure the comic deco would hit home for a lot of folks :)
