I ordered some of Glaug's kits over the last few weeks. I'm very satisfied with his work.
The Nightbeat stuff works flawlessly (easy to disassemble and does not interfere with transformation at all) and the chest even looks decent without painting (I will paint it later though, or at least give it a clear coat to make it less matte). Honestly, I think the head looks okay with just the new chest, but the neck extension does make it look better.
The Chromia kit is a bit involved. There's no way around that. I did crack the part around the last pin you have to remove while I removed that pin. But honestly, it's very minor and hard to see. As for the parts themselves, they work great. They're perhaps a little too tight, but I'd rather too much friction over too little, I guess. That might just be luck of the draw with the various tolerances of your Chromia and the impreciseness of 3D printing. It might be a bit challenging, but this was my first time removing pins and so if I can do it, anyone can.

Really liking the improved feet articulation of Classics Prime. That's one of the few Classics figures I still own (as it was a present) and yours poses so much better.

Okay, most annoying part of the Nautica design over and done with, hopefully. Yes, the visor rotates!

Anyway, I like it. What figure is it supposed to work with?

I've never really worked much with Shapeways or customization in general, but seeing kits like this really makes me want to. But for curiosity's sake, I'd still like to know, from you or anyone who's had to work with the stuff, how the quality of the material is, how it works when applied to a figure or how it is with paint?

This kit really got me thinking about a custom project that I started (but was unable to properly finish) a long while back. I have no experience with 3D modelling, printing, etc. Would it be possible/cost effective to make a similar kit (new chest piece, arms, legs, head, etc.)for the old Classics Seekers mold to create Slipstream?
