I managed to glue up a few parts for another mock up of old Slotnut .. lots of sanding, fitting, smoothing yet but I think it's gonna be a home run .... A big thanks to my old buddy Mysterion for the body parts to help me add 100 pounds of BMI to this scrawny little runt ..lol.. I bring you the new, beefy Slotnut !   |

A couple of observations based on the poster, The head needs to be lower and more forward. On the poster, his chin is just above the belly and the helmet and head appears to be forward of his shoulders, not centered on his body (front to back). The pants should be replaced with 2 short cone shapes for the legs. On the poster, the legs of the pants are cone shaped and come right off the roundness of his belly. This might help, I did a real quick side sketch of how I intemperate that poster.  Not being nit picky, just trying to help. He's coming along nicely so far, I can't wait to see what you come up for his girlfriend. |

OK .. after studying your rendering I came up a few mods and here's where I'm at for the moment ..lol.. I plan on dropping the head further forward/down yet to help compensate for the helmet... his head is oddly proportioned so making it exactly like the photo is gonna be a tough one .. Using "Wade-a-Minut" as a donor the helmet has to be larger than the original poster rendering  |
