The Energon Pub

This is a commissioned piece. It was inspired by a similar build / work in progress by TFMaster. I used the leader sized / class Energon Megatron as my base. Was on the fence with his color scheme (blue? purple?) with all his incarnations/styles, so I went with a blue-purple.

Some features:
[INDENT]- LED eyes
- Rotating wrists
- Articulated fingers
- Articulated wrists
- Added articulation on upper legs
- Alt mode / wings slide on a hinge
- Red (evil) matrix
- Drone transforms into minicon
- Extended upper legs
- Head on ball joint

Wow... Amazing and inspiring. How long does a commission of that level take to do? Also, what kind of paint and clear coat do you favor? I'm open to trying different things out but am limited in hobby funds for the high-end supplies. And I'm using a Testor's Aztec airbrush, which I have mixed feelings for. I'm always impressed with the stuff you put out. It's got me disassembling a lot of stuff, egging me on to create.

Jaw-drop amazing! Really like the use of Sonar. Colors are phenomenal.

Your paint apps never cease to amaze me. This is total win. Im looking at my Generations Thunderwing on my shelf and feel like throwing it away!

I was about to say the same thing. My tiny little Thunderwing looks just pitiful.
