Here's an example of a technique I'm trying to replicate. Pretty sure I have all the pieces but despite all of my effort I can't figure it out!

Lets take the arm for closer examination. In particular it's right arm as we can clearly see the shoulder assembly and the elbow assembly:
On the cockpit chassis we see the clips holding onto the T pin. The shaft of the T pin goes horizontal into some brick in the arm.... OK, got it.
What I don't get is how to transition from where the T pin interface there is horizontal to now a similar T pin interface vertically in the elbow.
Please enlighten me, thanks!
How do they transition from horizontal joint to vertical?

What Silent said. You can see the half plate space at the bottom of the shoulder, it's a little rectangular black space. All put together with a 1x3 inverse slope and the plate and cheese at the front.

That's what I figured but I just don't get it.... please elaborate.
I guess you mean one headlight brick standing vertical with the T pin shaft going into it right? But then how does the horizontal headlight brick interface with the vertical one to allow the vertical T pint shaft to go into the headlight brick?

It's just like Dertyyy said, they're just laid out like plain bricks.aoffan23 wrote:All put together with a 1x3 inverse slope and the plate and cheese at the front.
