The Energon Pub

Okay guys here is my WIP Gnaw, he is going to have an extensive amount of work done to him, the parts I used were
Classics Grimlock arms
Energon Grimlock legs
Hailstorm Missile pods and neck piece
The engines are some random ones from a ko gijoe
Animated Swoops weapon
and so far the cannon for the PCC tank

The hailstorm neck piece was attached to Gnaws head so he has 360 rotation, the grimlock arms well that's a given and yeah the rest is quite obvious.

well from what i can see, it looks good. Is this your first custom?

No it's not, I have made other kitbashes in the past, this is my second sharkticon, the first was destroyed sadly. U have others but need to fix them up before posting them.

well get em fixed and get em posted!

EDIT: now that i've went back and had a closer look at your work with Gnaw, i figure that some repositioning on the shoulder rockets when in robot mode would work better - unless your planning on having them as shoulder mounted weapons when in robot mode?

I'd actually look forward to see the final paint on it too

trust me I tried with those rockets figuring a way to I have one idea left that I want to try before I give up on the rockets and keep them there but if it doesn't work out I do have a gun for him which is a G1 gun but not gnaws g1 gun. Paint job will be darking some of the colors stripping the stickets and adding a cygar and a eye patch, why because I tried it on him and it looks cool lol but yeah I will be making 3 sharkticons and each will have a different personality about them with different weapons as well.

im just waiting to see who's gunna come up with the curly, larry and mo jokes lol

LOL good one, I didn't even think about that, but these sharkticons will have a back ground story where they found one of Kup's cygar's and the one that I am doing now will be one that keeps it and becomes more intelligent as a leader and while they have dinobot intelligence they will be able to have normal speech like an every day bot or con.
