Maria Bernard First update!

Added 2020-06-30 04:47:59 +0000 UTC

Hello my dear monkeys!

I've managed to finally get my hands on Maria after such a hectic month, between editing and working on other projects that were already in progress.

This is just a quick update.

I've done the initial putty and sanding work, there are still some areas that need to be touched up as there were still some small gaps on the left leg connection.

The hair was a bitch to work with because there was a lot of heat bending involved and not to mention the vines that go up her legs, oof! that was a nice puzzle to solve because the kit didn't include any instructions, just the parts.

Since this was a PVC to GK conversion, there were several issues with fitting, PVC figures are a little bendable, so I needed to go back and straighten them up to their original shape.

There are a couple of areas that I didn't get to sand because I needed to use my little Japanese sanding gadget but it was already too late at night and just crashed on the bed lol.

I have a feeling I'll need to do another round of putty for a lot of areas in the hair, so let's see how that goes! 😁
