the actual title should be: Custom G1 Onslaught Inspired Wreckage.

So what happened? I bought Wreckage just to test out some dirt/mud techniques. His original color pallet was just horrifying.

I was kind of unsatisfied with his small head. it accentuated the difference of scale with the other transformers.
So just for fun I switched his head with landmine... and it kind of grew on me . Wreckage looked a lot better proportion-wise in comparison with the other transformers... and landmine doesn't look bad as well.

So... somewhere on my desk there is a G1 Onslaught just standing around. And suddenly it hit me that he had a lot of similarities with my new Wreckage/landmine spin-off.

They are both army vehicles, their heads looked the same (kind of...) and lot of wheels.

So it was decided, the wreckage /landmine becomes Onslaught!



the new palette is Army green,navy blue , Black, Silver, purple, orange Eyes and light & dark Brown were combined for the mud











This is the original state of the vehicle mode
I used glossy paint on one mud color so it keeps having a wet look, Now it looks like he just drove through mud a minute ago.

I used a small sponge to do the mud spatter and decals for the decepticon logos








Well they don't look exactly the same but they could be cousins

Now I gotta go check on Longarm who got stuck into a vat of Isoprophyl


PS: In case you wonder, I never enhanced the orange in his eyes with photoshop. this is how bright it is.

Woah.

Impressive.

awesome but how could you risk wreckage best movie toy

Wreckage is a fun figure to repaint. The mold is so good but the original colors are so bad. This one is cool.

woops, Ive noticed my pics dissapeared.
Here they are again.

Thanks for the comments guys.
Currently I'm working on complete repaint of longarm...
and it's looking good.
I'll post pics when he's done.

This is such a cool repaint. I love the swap of Landmine's head. I don't know what else to say.
