Considering what a pain it was gouging out the torso and SRM, it's not something I'm going to do again.  Maybe I should make IWM the offer.

doing the torso bits is the reason i don't like to mess with dire wolves, it way above me and my patience.
"Warriors, not war machines, are the backbone of the Hell's Horses. While others worship the BattleMech as the ultimate weapon, the men and women of this Clan see even this awesome piece of technology as the tool it is. We have held to this philosophy since the days of our first Khan, who knew that the value of the common soldier far outstripped the brute force of the BattleMech. It is one reason our Clan possesses fewer mechs than most, and has led many to underestimate our fierceness and courage. Our survival against all challengers when others have fallen proves the folly of such arrogance, and testifies to the wisdom of our founders."

The Kyudo looks good but I always thought the Centurion was small and anorexic. Deimos looks pretty good. Is the Dire Wolf that standing by it a Re sculpt or the original?

So, i built my deimos. Anyone else have problems getting the torso onto the waist piece without the legs getting in the way?

Buddy of mine used a bit of plasticard to raise the torso just enough.

That's what I should have done.  Instead, I just filed down parts of the legs. :(

this is what i was going to do, but I just ended up angling the main body down so that it is covered, you can still see the gap from the back though. Seems like a silly problem to have, how was this avoided when it was being sculpted?

On a side note, I love the Hyena mini, it goes together very well and IMO is an accurate representation of the art.
