HGUC RGM-79C GM Type C WIP pt.1

No, this is not a new project that just started.
I began working on this 2 or 3 years ago but 
paused for a while due to laziness and lack of enthusiasm technical difficulties.

The GM Type-C is noticeably shorter than other 18 meter height MS in HGUC so extending the leg actually makes it more in scale with other HGUC kits.  

These long feet work fine on Powered GM but not so much on GM Kai, 
though I wouldn't mind if Bandai gave us giant-ass feet like in HGUC GM Quel.
They look way better and are closer to the original design.
IMO, the ideal shape for these Katoki Hijime designed GM feet would be the ones in HGUC GM custom, GM II or GM III.


Additional ankle swivel to make the standing pose more natural looking
Got this idea from some Japanese modelers
