I'm attempting to build a homemade Contemptor Dreadnought. I have selected arms, legs, head, weapons and exhaust/powerplant, but I donot know what I should use to make the torso or pelvis. If anyone has any suggestions that would be great. Thank you in advance.

Here is a list of what I am using so far. I am using the legs from a Master Gundam model I have, the arms from a Wing Gundam model, the head from the Cyclone Launcher upgrade from Forge World, and the exhaust from a Defiler(I think, not certain).

I don't suppose you have a picture of all the parts laid out together in one picture do you? It would help immensely with trying to source the parts you are still looking for, not to mention give us a size reference. 3nodding

I finally sat them together next to the Contemptor I already have and discovered the arms and legs are way too big.
