3D printing of 1/55 vf arm

[Bishop]

I am new to modeling and I had a go at replicating the VF-1 chunky monkey arm for fun. I had a lot of parts from an old jetfire and I decided to have a go and model the missing parts, namely the two arms I used for a VF-1S restoration. Let me know what you think!

Nice! I have a large backlog of 1/55 customs that I need to work on and designing/printing some of these parts was on my to-do list. Especially the part that slides inside the forearm and has the fist attached.

That was the most difficult part to figure out... I ended up scanning it, but I think the latch has to be rebuilt sturdier, it did break after a few slides. Maybe print with PETG? Anyway, it was fun!
