Transformers Prime Insecticon Shrapnel (Earth Mode)

Postby Jin Saotome » Tue May 06, 2014 9:34 am

This week I bring you a custom Transformers Prime Insecticon Shrapnel done in a concept earth-mode style. While the Insecticons in Transformers Prime were basically giant clones I figured taking on the three famous ones and giving them a unique style would work. The first of the bunch, Shrapnel, uses a Beat Hunters Bulkhead body, Power Core Bombshock head, and voyager Optimus hands. I removed some sculpt, reworked the bumper, and gave Shrapnel wing-swords and 'pincers' for the back wings. Wrapped up in a matte/gloss black shell he's ready to roll out, fly out, and gnaw out on his foes!

Weapon: Null-Ray Rifle
Always a feast for the eyes to look at your work, Jin!

I like how he still preserves a few vestiges of his insect mode, and they actually integrate with his vehicle mode.

Great job!

I really like that, this mold has been used for a lot of customs but you definitely have something special there.

I look forward to it, probably something the molds should have been used for in the first place.
