Not sure how much feedback you're looking for but there are a couple of easy tweaks I would make. Your shins are way to narrow. Heat them up and flare them out of you can. The shoulder bells present kind of a concave look instead of the rounded convex shape. Maybe you can heat and adjust those as well. This will be important when you put a cape over it. The silhouette will be very off with their current shape.
Well, that kind of feedback :thumbsup
Bending out shins seems pretty easy, but doing it to the bells, that's the tricky part. The problem was with the plastic itself. It's pretty hard to form with a heat gun, and I'm not sure it can be more bent downwards...I'm a bit afraid to try it. Maybe making the stripes thicker in the middle could work, that would make it seem more rounded? :confused
I'm guessing having it imported in would be a pretty hefty cost huh? I've never heard of a certain paint color not being sold in a country before.
