Are you going to lose much detail during the fiberglassing?

Heh, loved the youtube WIP.. "I live to serve.."

Now that you're going to fiberglass this cardboard behemoth, I can clearly see how you will have secure attachments for the non-powered pnuematics.. You just HAVE to build a Dreadnought close combat "fist" wich you can open and close with the help of a simple, low-tech wire/springs system that mimics your finger-movement. (i.e; you close your fingers, the fist closes, you open them, the fist opens.)

Anyhow, this thread just screams awesomeness! Please don't give up when things look grim! take your time!

why would you even add detail until you have the fiberglass on?

Listen, my children, as I pass onto you the truth behind Willy Wonka and his factory. For every wonka bar ever created in existance, Mr. Wonka sacraficed a single Oompa Loompa to the god of chocolate, Hearshys. Then, he drank the blood of the fallen orange men because he fed them a constant supply of sugary chocolate so they all became diabetic and had creamy, sweet-tasting blood that willy could put into each and every Wonka bar. That is the REAL story behind willy wonka's Slaughter House!

Because the way i make it it is easier to have all the detail on it before fiberglassing that after

Makes sense to me.

Add the detail, then fiberglass... now, it's all like one piece, instead of a Dread body with stuff added onto it.

Seems to me to make it less likely that things will come off. No?

So are the arms actually going to be mounted from above to the body (in regards to the aforementioned swivel)?
