XV-8 Alternate longer legs

thingiverse

A little conversion work I've done. I was tired of regular GW battlesuits looking squat and top-heavy, so I wanted to give them longer legs like the commander battlesuit has. I might also add a waist extension to make them stand taller. I took measurements from newer XV8s to match the miniatures, after which I printed the parts that should fit into the thigh armor of regular Tau battlesuits. I might design my own thigh armor at some later date. Always do a test print before moving on to the next step. Since I'm without a printer right now, I'd greatly appreciate any feedback you can offer - especially information about how these parts fit with regular XV8 thighs. I designed mirrored thighs for ease of use, and the calf/shin section should be universal.
