I made a little progress on the Leynos model kit from PLUM.
If you wanna see the work made before : Previously
The Leynos’s rifle
I assembled and glued the rifle, and sanded the joints.

Then I worked on the legs. I modifed a few parts to enable me to easily assemble and disassemble the various parts that compose the legs. The aim was to paint the sub-assemblies in different colors, while keeping the parts glued and the joints as inconspicuous as possible.
So I sawed off the legs … There’s no other way to put it

Problem with the feet : How to insert articulation on a gunpla
And as is often the case when I’m assembling, I forget some parts in the corner of the desk … except in this case, the parts had been glued for 24 hours.

To fix this, I cut out the lugs on the grey part, then inserted it into the free slot on the foot and glued it in place.

Final result : The legs
And that’s it, the legs are finished. The thighs, knees, calves, feet and their toes can be disassembled and assembled without a hitch, and with the joints invisible (on the photo, you can see some of the joints, but it was taken before the sanding was finished).
