I had almost ditched this one, but after working on the arms tonight, he's back on board.
The kit came with marlboro decals which would be kind of cool to have a diaclone version of him but not that cool. eh, we'll see how that goes. the legs and arms come from classics mirage. the head and feet are cast from energon downshift. the feet joints are bionicle. shoulder joints came from classics firebot and cybertron clocker. door flap joints came from classics divebomb. and yes, he tranforms...for now.
anyway here he is.
thanks for lookin'

Really cool stuff. Can't wait to see him done.

How have I not seen this yet?! I was content with my Cybertron Downshift repaint up until now :-(

Really, that is fantastic. You wouldn't happen to be planning on doing a how-to on this, would you?

Thanks for the kind words, I have a few updated shots for all y'all. There's still a lot of work left on him.
Catch22, a how-to might be damn near impossible my friend - but I'll see what I can do. It might be a little while though. :wink:

also, I've added a couple of almost finished teasers(bumblebee and cliffjumper...,,and an oldie, to fill out the shot.

cheers guys,

Done and Done.
back from the dead and on the shelf. I'll add more pictures to my flickr page and post the link on saturday morning.
if you're wondering what he's got in his left hand, take a look at my sig. :wink:

Thanks guys for following this one progress. You've helped keep me motivated. I lost a bunch posts on this when Devastator wrecked the server :roll:

(jk Dev) so if you had a question I didn't answer please let me know.
cheers,

What do you use for glue?

When did that Bumblebee happen? More! Now!

by **Unicron Singularity** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 7:46 pm

Holy ****, I just got a kitbash-boner from just watching that Wheeljack. Sweet jesus in drag, that's awesome! :grin:

Tracks also looks kickass, as well as the BB and CJ.

I'm going all bonkers, just by the sheer awesomeness those kitbashes pulsate with. 8-}

Testors cement for plastic models, gel super glue, quick steel, quick wood. that's most of them.

he's not quite finished but there are a few pictures of him on my flickr page. I broke part of the kit and I ordered another one to finish it off but never got around to it.
