1. No I didn’t need to take in the suit anywhere. It conforms really well to the new shape.I think this looks really good. A few questions:
- When you removed the padding in the waist area, did you need to take in the suit at the back to get that tapered V look? Also, any improvement in the articulation without that padding?
- Did you reattach the top in the crotch area (where you snipped that one stitch) or can you leave it loose?
- Did you add or remove any padding in the shoulder area? It may just be the addition of the cape but the shoulders seam to have more slope to them;
- Pursuant to Wor-Gar's earlier inquiry, did you remove any padding in the thighs to give the pants a looser/baggier fit?
2. I reattached the bodysuit under the crotch, since it was just a single stitch. Helps keep the shirt tucked in.
3. There’s a small piece of black foam under the top of the shoulder armor to lift them a little. But the slope has more to do with just detaching and reattaching to the Velcro at a better angle.
4. No, I haven’t done anything to the thighs or legs.
Generally, a lot of it is futzing. I assume these figures are often assembled quickly and haphazardly at the factory. It always benefits me to reassemble all the bits with more thought. This is universal though. InArt’s Joker needed just as much reworking/dressing out of the box to look sharp.
