after almost a year of making this, here it is. the alt modes are not as what i would prefer them to be, but they'll do.
please post comment on how to make the alt modes better.

While the removal of the turret on the larger MP scale one detracts from it a bit (as I hate removable/ losing peices) both of these are awesome! Hastak should do something like this for generations! Hope to see some more customs like this

thanks! whos hastak? hasbro/takara?

Hastak is for Hasbro/Takara. I believe these are the best examples of a custom Blitzwing. Which came first, delux or masterpiece? Looks quite challenging. I've been wanting to customize the triple changers. Difficult, because I want the alt modes to be as believable as posssible. I was inspired by IDW's version of Blitzwing, to consider using armada Megatron for the base. With a g1 broken Jetfire, an armada Jetfire and some styrene, I'm going to try it. I also want to find 2 train halves of energon Omega Supreme to make an Astrotrain. I want to keep the halves connected end to end for the train mode, yet connect the bottoms for shuttle mode. I think part of armada Tidalwave would be useful to accomplish that.

Your work has inspired me, I want to finish my incomplete projects, and chase my new ideas. Thank you!

Wow! As with all your work, these are amazing!
I think your way is probably the only way to go if you want a Neo G1 BlitzWing.
Unfortunately, I can't say anything to help since I know nothing about customizing(though I would like to learn how).

this thing is epic! did you use model tank kits for the extra parts?

I'll be honest, the Masterpiece isn't my cup of tea. I give credit for taking on a huuuuge task, though.

The Deluxe, on the other hand, I'm thoroughly impressed. Other than the cannon being seen in jet mode (and even that's easily overlooked), he's really impressive.

Awesome work sir.

Blitzwing was always one of my favourite G1 toys and these two are just awesome!

I tip my hat to you sir, keep up the very good work!

I think both are really good. I am super impressed with the Deluxe version. It has the least compromise I have seen with a Blitzwing scratch build like this. Very impressive.

That is really well done on both of them. That masterpeice must have been a mission to do. i do like the classics one its pretty good how you have done alot to hide the the different alt modes so it dosent stick out much.

oh and nice paintjob aswell
