Next step was to fashion the little detail panels that mount along with the half moons on the foot shells. Like many of the other details, I could have bought these. But they were really easy to make. Again I used 1/8" expanded cell PVC sheet, cut the pieces, sanded them a bit, and then mounted them with PVC cement. I did some sanding here and there, a little trimming, and filled a few gaps with some putty, then put on a coat of primer. The results are really starting to look like R2. I'm happy with the feet, and I am happy with the difficult task of getting those bottom skirts with the slots done right. I'll be setting these aside for a while until it's time for more painting.
