The Energon Pub

Here's a Universe "Insecticon" that I modded into a Bombshell. The paint needs a little tightening up, but I think that he's most of the way there.
I was going to paint the bug-eyes yellow, but they conduct the light so well that I'm going to try dying them.

Bombshell wants BRAINS!!!

Very cool! If I were a bigger fan of the Insecticons I'd total swipe that. With permission, of course, so I guess it wouldn't be swiping.

Please, SWIPE! SWIPE! Kitbashing is for the betterment of ALL mankind.
Actually, I'm kind of curious if anyone has done something like this with 'Insecticon' already.

so far I had never seen it done, I wanted to do something similar but had neither the tools nor skill to pull it off. Great job. Seeing yours makes me want to get a second Insecticon and finally give it a shot.

I assumed it had but now that you mention it, I can't remember actually seeing one. Certainly not one with the remolded face.

I like that remolded face you put on it. Very cool.

And since you ask I've seen a few Energon Bombshells around, all with different takes on him. I did one back when Energon was around, except he's not exactly G1 accurate. I tried following the gang molding colors while adding a little bit of other detail. Kind of like if he was in really in the Energon toy line up.

I've wanted to do a G1 accurate one, but never got another Insecticon to do it. One day though.

I definately like the work you did on his robot mode. It seems very professional.
