Gluing hip & chest structure

The hip structure which I had assembled previously could now be glued to the main statue. A dry test-fitting shows that the hip section is aligning nicely.




Using epoxy resin, the hip section is glued into position. A missing fragment had left a hole between St.Anthony's chest and the thigh of the
Jesus figure, so I glued a thin wooden batten across the back of the hole to act as a support for filling later on.


After the glue was set, I was able to dry-fit the Jesus torso to the main figure and get a glimpse of the full statue for the first time.
