hey guys !!!

 

this is the kind of update that i love to show.... 2 days of works !!!

 

 

and voila !!!

 

 

the eyes have been EXTREMLY difficult to do since the power source and the switch are in the head !!! yes mp magnus's head still goes inside !! i cant tell you how many modifications i had to do but it is so worth it !!!!

 

hopw you like it !! i sure do ;) !!

Are the LED and power source inside the helmet or inside the inner robot's head?

inside helmet

new update !!!

how do you ike the matrix chamber ? note the crytal is not istalled yet !

 

enjoy !!

 

This is trully a perfect grade Magnus! Your previous version turned out great - this one will be fantastic!

The matrix chamber looks cool so far.

I wonder how you managed to build in that LED in the head. I tried it also in my own MP Magnus version, and I managed to fix it, but I had problems putting Magnus head on Prime's head then, so I removed the light...I also started to make a matrix chamber, but the same problem there. I couldn't fix the upper Magnus body to MP Prime because it was too thick, so the upper body moved too far away from Prime's body looking a bit stupid then...

It's really cool that you've managed to solve that problems...I'm really looking forward to see the result.

Man you must have plenty of time building Tfs kitbashed all the time (Metroplex, Magnus....) I wish I had the time to work so much on my projects.

ah the led in the head and let,s not forget the power suply... have been a real pain to incorporate ...had to extensively modify the head (helmet) to accomodate it.... but it works nicely and magnus's head goes in no problem.... as for the matrix chamber i had problems like you because of the cab/chest.... so i did,nt do it really deep and had to give the illusion that is was deeper then it was in reality.... as for the matrix i had to cast one and take off about 1/4 to a 1/3 of it,s thickness so it would fit the chamber... not an easy thing to do there as well.... also the power suply is very well hidden in the lower chest piece..... at this point him's really happy how,s it,s comming....

 

as for time i dont have that much !! i have 2 kids and a wife so i have about 2-3 hrs a day to do this.... but i use that time wisely ;)

hey guys !!

 

update time....

i had a breakthrough today on the legs.... the new legs will look very different then the previous edition.... and more detailled and i must say that the articulation is getting better by the day !! the only thing at this point that bugs me is that he,s a bit higher then his predecessor... about 1/4 inch ! it might come down a bit i will have to check on it !! but it,s comming along very nicely !

 

wow, that looks nice

Mark, I had a dream this morning that you had finished this guy and it was mine. Imagine my disappointment upon waking... =P

well i,ve decided to keep the height as is..... also i dont know for you guys but i think magnus needs a bigger rifle.... so i,ll do a new rifle !! bigger and badder and will have lights inside as well...... here is a leg size comparison of the first vesion and second version of magnus ....
