Thanks for getting her gallery up Dev. There is a problem with picture 8 though. Whenm you click on it, it comes up blank except for my name. All the other pics work fine though.

A little rough on the sculpting of the lines but over all probly one of the better ones you have done...But wasn't she a "Light Blue"

by **Tramp** » Tue May 09, 2006 3:18 pm

In the cartoons, the characters always came out lighter than their toy counterparts. Therefore, making her blue a bit darker isn?t really that much of a stretch.

oh. not the vehicle mode I was expecting. then again, I don't remember what her G1 vehicle mode was like... she's got quite a lot of backpack kibble. Still, significantly different than the original toy.
I like the proportions on the robot mode SOOO much better than your other one. I can totally buy this being female too.

Chromia?s G1 vihicle mode was a futuristic Cybertronian van. Screen caps can be found over on Seibertron.com Here is a link:http://www.seibertron.com/database/character.php?char_id=301&view=screencaps[/url]

Now that's a strange error! I must've been half asleep or something, sorry man! It's fixed now.

YAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!

It is kind of funny you know? The first post was by the creator of the model about an error, not exactly a good start for a thread. :oops:

Oh well. Thanks for the fix Dev.

I thought you guys might get a kick out of this. I made a custom blister card for Chromia. Take a look.

* golf claps * very very well done!

by **Pun-3X** » Mon May 15, 2006 9:40 pm

Damn it, man! Now I REALLY want one. :lol:

Can we get a close-up of the card backing?

by **Tramp** » Mon May 15, 2006 10:11 pm

This is as big as I can get given my host (AOL Picture Center). If you want to read the bio card text go to Chromia?s gallery.

by **Pun-3X** » Tue May 16, 2006 12:12 am

Yeah, already went and saw that. Just wanted to see the little details on the card backing you did.

I love the "also available/coming soon" (can't read the text there) images in the bottom corner. Great detail.

No. Believe it or not but she still fits in the original Brakedown bubble insert, so I used that. I don?t have the equipment to do vacuforming.

No, but, as I said, you can always use my WIP pics to make your own. :wink:

by **Tramp** » Tue May 16, 2006 9:58 pm

As for what the Also Avaliable pics say? they say Elita-1, Nightbird, and Moonracer respectively.

On a side note, what do you guys think of the series title/package logo?

Hm, I dunno... it looks nice, but ... I don't know. Maybe too much contrast? Maybe I'm way off, and I'm just used to the official packaging we've been getting. Even the official packaging has problems artistically. I find the official one rather cluttered and busy.
I would say look at official packaging to see where and what contrasts and what blends in, and consider why.
I don't know... I mean your blue is rather unsaturated. you would think that wouldn't contrast much. and the red is fairly dark.
also, my head hurts and I'm supposed to be asleep. -_-;

sweet! is she single? lol jk or am i? nice work.

by **Hobbyist Prime** » Wed May 17, 2006 4:58 pm

I think almost everything for the package is perfect! the only thing I might change is the background color of the logo or the color of the insert behind it. They seam to blend together a little bit but other than that it's primo!!!!!

No, she?s not single. She is definately taken. You would have to fight Ironhide for her. :wink:
