Now let this dry and you'll notice that the ear is not in place, this will be put on when the back of the head is installed and all electronics in the head is placed. Then we will glue the ear on and add more flesh to it to blend it in.

Once dry putting it back together
First install ELV-09 board that you made earlier on to the top part of the Bust next to the main head motor using the 4 screws that you removed the old board with. Sorry I did not take a picture of the new board while I was installing it but this picture is with the original ELV-09 board installed.


After this board is installed refer back to the dis-assembly of the board and the eye section to rebuild the head including the back of the head. Make sure you plug everything back in and double check the plug seating. Tie the new ELV-09 board wires with tie straps and guide them through the back hole in the neck and down into the torso, don't forget the black spring wire wrap.
