  1. I like your patterns. It would be nice to see more detailed photos so others can see where things go or what the eyes actually look like etc. It took me a long time to figure out how and where to put the 'top of lower legs' piece because I couldn't figure out how they were supposed to go on the lower leg.
    I am making this figure for my 6 year old grandson who loves Shiny Scizor.
