The X Walker Part X

 
Like I mentioned previously, this is the last update for this project, and since this is the last, it's a major one. I haven't been able to work on this much because I got stumped on how to finish the cockpit, and one of the weapons mount broke, so I had to rethink that as well.

The original mounts, being spare shoulder parts of the Astray, were flimsy as it were even without the weapons, so I needed something that would hold the weapons as well as keep it in a swiveled position. The mishap, as always, got me to build something better in the end.

I used a couple of 8mm revolver/revoltech joints to replace the ones I have used. I was hesitant to do so at first because these joints are rare and are quite hard to come by. I got a set of 10mm single and 6mm double joints aside from the 8mm double joints last year with a clear intent on using them on a project, but haven't been able to use them. I might use the lot of them later for the Turn X and the Masurao.
