Really you're working on one too? This is awesome, we'll probably have to
compare notes at some time. :)
I was talking to Chris Snead last week and Evangelion came up in our
converstation. I'd been meaning to build one for a while but it was mostly
just talk until last night. I was pulling stuff out of a box and there were
my Eva model and action figures staring at me. So I started to build,
beginning with what will probably be the most challenging part, the torso.

It's on TV? Cartoon Network? I gotta start watching TV again.

Eris is working on an Eva too?
Anyways, so far my torso has 3 points of articulation in the spine including
forward-back, side to side motion at each point. I'm basing the
articulation off my bandai model which is similarly featured. I'm doing
this in less then 4 inches of space because I don't want it to get to big.
It should stand at about 14-16".
Before I had started on the torso for the Eva, I thought I was gonna build a
solid torso like my Zaku. But last week when I was taking pictures of my
Zaku I realized how unfortunate it is to have no waist articulation. When
it came time to do a sniper pose, the Zaku just couldn't manage. So for the
Eva articulation city!
sniper pose . . . mmmmmmmmmmmm.
