WIP: new torso and upper arms

A friend suggests I use ball hinged joint instead of double ball joint at shoulder, in order to have a stronger construction at this point.
I really like how the torso becomes, making him a buffed soldier.

Project 01: Warlordarian trooper Kicked off

Getting tired of the indefinite waits for the characters from my favorite graphic novel, I have decieded to take one step forward, creating my own "Warlordarian" trooopers.

Super articulated body is what I have been pursuing - ball jointed neck, double ball jointed shoulders, ball hinged elbows, ball hinged wrists, ball jointed torso, swivel waist, ball hinged hips, ball hinged knees, ball hinged ankles, everything that I see from the modern action figures.

Also, I am a big fan of removeable helmet and armors. I wish I can do a set of armor that can percectly snap on the body, however it is too difficult for a 3.75". I thought the straps for chest armor would work but the whole thing came out like a bra :( I will just simply change it to an one-piece construction.

The upper arms and thighs are too slim, I will going to give these parts more muscles.

Fortunately I receive my comic pack Rohlan Drye from EE in the same time shooting photos, now Rohlan has a companion.
