Flash Gordon Part 2

Diving right in to the kit I put all the major subassemblies together. The first thing I noticed was this huge piece of flash -

Taking that off, it left a big hole in the shoulder of the model -

Evidently, from looking at the other side, that big flipped up piece was part of the epaulet. So the next thing to do is break out the Aves and replace it -

I'll smooth it down more when I get rid of the seam lines in the next step. While I had the Aves out, I added blobs of it to his feet as I plan on creating a new base for Flash. These blobs will let me anchor the figure to the base -

Here he is so far. Thanks for looking.
