[WIP] RG Unicorn LED mod WIP2

Picking up where we left off, I've already finished building and modding the lower half of the kit. So now its time to continue.

One major difference of this kit with it's MG or PG counterparts is its head transformation gimmick. Good thing there's still plenty of room to put the LED. Again, modding this area will mean that the transformation gimmick will be sacrificed.

Next that I worked on was the backpack. Like the MG kit, it also has plenty of space for LED and wiring. I didn't bother to adding LEDs to the thrusters since it would require a lot of work, smalled LEDs that I currently don't have, and the light from the LEDs shine through the thrusters anyway.

Next that I worked on was the chest area of the kit. The hard part about this area is that this is where wires from other areas pass through. So I had to take into consideration all the sections as I build this. What I did is I passed the wires through the chest first before putting the armor pieces.Good thing there's just enough space to pass the wires through.

Last part for this build was the arms. I think the forearms was the hardest part of this project. There was just no space there to pass the wires through, plus the pieces are designed to lock into each other, assembling only in a certain order. To address the issue, I made grooves on the pegs so that they can still be inserted even with the wire in place.

 The elbow joints was also another headache, which was solved by scribing a groove onto the joint to make some space.

Once everything is done and assembled, I did a little bit of detailing and marked the panel lines. It really brought out the RG details of this kit.

Considering the 2 week deadline, I'm really satisfied with the result of this project. Some areas can still be improved with enough planning though. 

The panel lines really broke the plain design of the kit so I'm still considering whether to some decals to it.
