Product Introduction
Hidora "Solid Hand Square Finger XS Size Compatible with 1/144 Scale" plastic model parts.
Solid Hands are 3D-printed detail-enhancing parts.
For humanoid character robots, the size and shape of the fist have a significant impact on the overall impression of the model,
making them a key focus for character robot modelers.
Currently, there are many aftermarket hand parts available on the market to replace kit parts,
but they contain so much detail that they often clash with the main body design when attached to the kit.
Most of these are designed for robots with a height of 18 to 20 meters,
and some create unnatural proportions when used on smaller robots.
Therefore, we have created a lineup of three sizes compatible with 1/144 scale, featuring a simple design with minimal molded detail to blend in with a variety of robot character models.
If you simply attach the fist parts included with the kit, which are shaped too large for the overall balance due to molding reasons or parts with holes in the fists to hold weapons,
the overall proportions may be disrupted or the realism may be lost.
In such cases,
these parts can be used to further improve the appearance.
Even the tiny molds that are difficult to process by hand are reproduced with the intricate detail that only a 3D printer can achieve.
At the same time, they feature a simple design that will blend in with many character robot kits.
They are sculpted in a size intended for use with 1/144 character robot kits.
Since the set includes two pairs of gripping hands (left and right), one pair of flat hands (left and right), and the back of the hand (right and left) as separate parts, one set can be used with multiple kits.
The clenched fist parts are precisely reproduced to resemble the shape of a tightly clenched thumb, similar to the human body.
The flat hand parts are sculpted to have a natural, relaxed line.
If the fists are the right shape and size, the arms will appear shorter, and if the arms appear shorter, the legs will appear longer, resulting in a slimmer, more sleek figure with a taller body.
Even if you're thinking of building a straight figure, adding just the fists will make it look cool and tighten up the overall image.
Each size is intended for use with 1/144 scale character robot kits.
XS Size: 15m class (kit height: 115mm and up)
S Size: 18m class (kit height: 125mm and up)
M Size: 20m class (kit height: 140mm and up)
Each size has the same basic form, but to prevent size mistakes during storage or assembly,
there are two designs (XS and M are simple designs, while S is a complex design with lots of detail).
The parts can be machined in the same way as plastic models.
Cut the support material (strut) below the fist with thin-bladed nippers and sand it flat.
Support material is only found near the wrist, so there's no need to worry about losing the details.
Layer marks and dot marks typical of SLA can be removed by applying #320 waterproof sandpaper to the surface,
and then further sanding with #400-#600 for a clean finish.
If the ball joint is tight, you can sand it down with sandpaper, or if it's loose, you can adjust it by applying instant glue.
It can also be painted just like a plastic kit.
To improve paint adhesion, we recommend lightly cleaning the parts with a mild detergent and then spraying on a primer before painting.
The upper part is a separate part, so it's easy to paint different parts.
Painting the joints in different colors adds a sense of precision.
Metallic colors also make a nice accent.
This product, previously sold as a "Mechanical Hand," has been significantly revamped using the latest 3D printer equipment.
