On pin's and needles

So, taking some sage advice I reinforced the pinning on the feet
and threw in some pins at the pivot/glue points connecting the upper
and lower legs.

I followed the "two pin" rule for extra support. For the leg pin's
after I drilled the hole and measured the pin I cut it just short
so I can fill in the top of the whole with some putty and smooth
the surface before painting.




On a person note its dang nerve wrecking to drill wholes into a
model like this, but I understand its for the better in the long
term.
