Banpresto Non Scale Gundam Head Display

ZZ-GUNDAM (Part6)
Did some test fitting with spare parts for the bottom of the neck.
 
After some further fiddling around, eneded up with this configuration… Still feel like something’s missing. This will probably go through a few more iterations before I decide.
 
Having looked at some reference pics, decided it would look better for the side vents to ‘sit in a recessed cavity’ instead of being stuck onto the surface.
Held the part in place temporarily with blutack, and traced the outline using pencil.
 
Cut away the hole so that the part would sit in nicely
Test fit with a turbine part to simulate an air intake mechanism for the head. In the eventual configuration, hopefully the turbine will still be visible from both the front and side vents.
Also, suddenly decided that the head cannon needs to be wider, so it was cut right in the center. Will be layering about maybe 3mm of pla-plate in between. The shape of the red piece needed some adjustments, as it used to sit inside a cavity on the forehead. Now it will need to rest on the outer surface.
Clean up the parts again, and coated with surface to check for problems. Still a lot of surface problems which need to be fixed.
