Seeing as Hasbro aren't being very forthcoming with the identity of the third Rainmaker Seeker i thought i would
come up with one of my own.

Bio
Another product of Shockwaves twisted experiments & able to control one of earths greatest resources Hydrostorm is a crazed cackling force of devastation.

Abilitys
Hydrostorm is able to create blasts of extreme high pressure water Called "Hydroblasts" crushing any who dare to cross his path.
Able to fire missiles charged with bursts of 20,000 volts of electrical energy wich combined with his "Hydroblasts" can cause utter devastation to friend and foe alike.
In jet mode subject has a top speed of mach 2 whilst in the air and 100mph whilst underwater.

Weaknesses
Subject is barely rational at the best of times making him a brutal but unfocused opponent

Hydrostorm was painted with Games workshop Acrylics (mainly Hawk turquoise & fortress grey)
I gave the missiles a sharper point by well,er putting them in a pencil sharpener.

Loads more pics here..

Amazing repaint there Spurt! Just wanted to let you know that your work has inspired me to repaint all of my classics, Universe and Henkei! I was wondering, however, did you dry brush the whole figure or just parts of it? How did you accomplish the small details?

All in favor of keeping the name "Hydrostorm" say "I".
Excellent work!

Highlighting, I see. To be honest, I never would've guessed. I thought it was all dry or airbrushed. Regardless, amazing work! So it's strictly Gamesworkshop acrylics for you? Any chance you'll be doing other Classics? Currently, I'm prepping Hound, Silverstreak and Dinobot for a complete repaint. I'll be posting some pics up in the near future.
