This is how it will look in the end for the first one.
Step one: Build this.
Step two: Connect like so.
Step three: Build this.
Step four: Connect like so.
Step five: Put in step step two(?) and this is how it should look:
Step six: Add cross-tie.
For method two all you are going to do different is switch the five-way connectors with tabs with four-way connectors. It is started after step two.
Step three: Build this.
Step four: Connect like so.
Step six: Put inside step two.
Picture that shows the difference from method one and two.
If you don't have a lot of white/grey/back connectors you could switch the white with blue and the blue with granites/yellows. So it would look like this:
I was originally going to do this on my hyper but then ran out of five-way connectors in grey and didn't want to switch to yellow during the middle of it. So if you have any other ideas that would make this even more time and piece consuming than please comment down below.
