Modded hood piece

[Rockstaremcee]

I removed the goggles from TLM2 CMF Battle-Ready Lucy.  Not clean work, just had one sitting on my desk and I started working on it.  Here is the result:

I am debating if I want to put any more work on it to smooth the edges or not.  Thoughts, comments, constructive-criticisms?

Yes, you need to smooth them with a fine file. Something else you can do it take a cotton bud / q-tip and dip it in acetone, squeeze it, then rub it on the filed part only. This both removes any fine dust and dissolves the surface, leaving it smooth. But don't overdo it or it becomes too shiny.

I say finish it. It looks really good. No tips though, I just spectate this kind of stuff.

That looks amazing, great job!

That looks great! It looks like an update version of the old 4505. Lego should make this a standard part.

Many thanks for the advice!  I will post an updated picture once I do this! I just moved, with my entire collection, so I may need to find it!

Thanks!  I totally understand as this is my first venture into modding.

YES!  That was my hopes as well!
