Holding pattern and update

I shaved a little more off the legs and tried to round the ovals of the church bell thighs.

Legs good.

Thighs went back to their shape.

Tried again with a heat gun but it got too hot to hold and went back to oval shape.

Tried to hold with a strap. I squeezed the oval into a round and tightened the strap. As soon as I let go, the oval shape came back. This was before I put in the hot water.  I tried just putting them in hot water then holding the shape with my hands and quickly putting in cold water and it held, after a few hours it went back to oval.

I'm done, it's not playing fair.

Squad leader says he will be done with the helmet soon. It is an ATA kit.
