Here is a repaint of SWTF Anakin as Skywarp. I still need to add some Decepticon labels that I ordered. But this is pretty much it.

Great job on the colour scheme!
I'd like to see a little head mod though.

Nice paintjob, and pretty innovative thinking if you ask me!

I think the only things I'd've done differently would be a slight head mod as Soundwarp suggested - adding ear vents would be cool. The face would be a bit darker, probably with yellow eyes. And as long as it didn't mess with the vehicle mode colourscheme, purple forearms.

But it's a fantastic repaint - almost makes the fig worth bothering with! Do you plan on Screamer and/or Thundercracker versions?

Now thats a sweet looking original concept. Great job.

I like the idea of using the jedi fighters as seekers, but I agree that the head needs to be changed or something, still... it's a very nice bit of work you've done there

Yeah, when I started I wanted to add the ear vents but it doesn't give room to add to the head and be able to transform it back. I am mostly just a repainter, I am not good at cutting and molding stuff. So I left his head alone to avoid a mess.

I figured since he is in space he won't be needing air vents :lol:

(thats my excuse

)

Ramrider,

I might do a Thundercraker later. Got a few other projects I want work on. At least now I know this mold looks okay as seekers.

This is along the lines they should've taken for this line to start with. TF characters that transform into SW vehicles. I like it.

I would love to see that! I say go for it!

Here is Thundercraker. I said would do him later, but I liked how Sky came out so I did him today.

Thats really cool. I really like how you repainted ani to be Skywarp and Thundercracker. Its kinda like ther cybertronian forms. I hope you do a Ani-Starscream

That's true how with very little mod, he gets to have G1 Cybertronian Bbee vehicle mode! How shocking!

these look quality!!!!!
have you thought about putting G1-esque stripes around the edge of there wings, you know, silver for for skywarp and white and red for thundercracker, i think it would finish these off perfectly

Going to do Megs? I've been eteing up Grievous for that, but maybe Palpatine would be better?

I am planning in using Palpatine for Megs. They put a missile/rocket shooter under his top wing. Going to see if it can be put in one of his arm
Here's a links to a pic that shows the missile launcher http://www.starwars.com/collecting/news/hasbro/news20060310.html

Thanks for the gallery Devastator!

I love them the fatbot thing , the thing I think that would have made them neat is if you cut off the "points" on the wings it would have made them look like the "wings" on Lazerbeak in the old cartoon.
