I have switched browsers from Chrome to Firefox which should allow me to post progress with my Master Grade Strike E+IWSP which I’d received partially assembled and with a few pieces missing (and a few that brokewhile I attepted to reassemble it), the main crest was broken, the rear skirt was missing and the connector for the Integrated Weapons System Pack been snapped clean off.
The backskirt and IWSP were made using Milliput to create a quick release mold from identical parts for an MG Strike Noir that I’ll finish as a straight build when I have the time. I also used builder parts MS Blades to replace parts that had snapped off, I also replaced the polycaps and joints for the lower wings of the IWSP which had also snapped off.

After initial success with uploading through Firefox I am once again unable to upload additional content.
The Connector is made using Putty and similar parts of the Strike Noir to make a mold. The results are far from perfect as there was a little chipping when I opened the mold and there is a 1mm gap between the back of the Strike-E and the IWSP which is only really noticeable from the side.
The back Skirt was made using Milliput to make a mold using similar parts of a Strike Noir. Initial results were far from perfect which lead to the use of Builders Parts MS Thruster to replace the vents.
The Strike-E, The MS Blade is noticeably shorter than the one originally designed for this kit, naturally I had to make alterations to the vertical blades, adjusting the length and adding a curve to allow for the angle for the horizontal blade.
I used the MS blade originally designed for Zeon Mobile Suits when part of the cannon had snapped off.
