Looks awesome! But you've forgotten to leave space for er,,,,, well anything!

How on earth are you going to fit everything in there?

How did you cut the shapes for the Ali arms?

It is a tiny robot if you take off the arms and tail. Things only just fit it lol... its very tight. I am hoping i can get it well under weight so it can be armoured up for combat.
