That definatley had to hurt. I lost the tip of my middle finger to a bathroom door when I was one. They had to totally rebuild the tip. According to my mother, it made medical history. You?re lucky you ddin?t lose the tip. It?ll leave a nice scar though.

i hope your finger grows back, if you fit a vessle itl bleed for ages,

but wow motormaster looks awsome i dunno how you thort of making mp prime into a whole truck

Dude, i can't wait for the finished result of your amazing work...

Are you going to do the leg-mod for either/both of the Acuras?

Ouch Dude, That must hurt like hell. Either way, I am sorry you hurt your pinky. Dont make that mistake, Either way TFmaster. You are the god!

Ah, battle scars. Always fun.

Ouch! That's why I always keep Super Glue close by.


MM looks great!

OUCH!!!!

Well, TFM, I hope your finger heals soon! I'm sure you'll work through the injury too! Heh heh!

Anyways, this is one of my favorite pieces of yours to date and I continue to be amazed each time I see progress! Keep truckin' man! (pun intended, hehe)

with wikkids stuntacons finished and yours getting closer to finish, the world of kitbashing might never be the same. they both look great with thier different approaches. If only we could get these two customs next to each other in one gallery. now that would be something

I love what you did to Cybertron Starscreams head. I wish I had the time to make Defensor so we could battle. How tall does Menasor stand? Are you finished?
I would rather own this bot than a G1 Maximus. Love it.

Looks to me that when you have final paint on Motormaster the head will be 100% perfect. I think everyone else should leave their entries at home. Of course you have boxes for all combiners? Maybe you could build a Giftset box for Alternators Stunticons.

That would be a big Damn Box!!!

Ah, but one can dream can't he?

I'd have to do the whole speal though...Custom Box Art, Old Style Tech Specs on the back that looks like it can be cut out...black box with top that closes over for protection...old school G1 Grid line background...

I'm ganna have to stop now...my wifes at work and i'm getting excited..

Enjoy the mild gore.

Dude we have identical fingers. I was using a serrated knife for peg removal and sliced through unexpectedly 2 times in a week. One gash on top of the other. They're mostly healed now, still tender though.
Now Motormaster. Holy blankity blank blank blank. Ever since the G1 episode when Prime and Motormaster ram head on I have wanted this toy.Wow!

You sound as though you can actually pull it off and maybe you've been thinking about it already. If you can......blow them away man.

so.. you ran out of materials and started using pieces of you? creepy bash

are you going to paint dead end with blood and use a finger bone to carv menasor's weapon?

just FYI, super glue is not at all healthy to close the wound with.

True, but I think many here can bear testimony to the fact that it does work very well on glueing your skin.

Actually, that's what super glue was originally intended to be used for..during the Korean War, I think. A scientist wanted to find a way to close wounds long enough for the injured soldiers to make it to a medic where they could get treated. Super glue was the result of that.

WEE! I watch too much History Channel!

Great work on Menasor, btw o.o;; I'm anxiously awaiting what the final product will look like

Heh heh. I saw that programme, too...

That's a lovely thought considering it's cyanide based!!!

a little cyanide has never hurt anyone..

Techincally the chemical compound Cyanoacrylate, which is the proper name for your general superglue was discovered during tests to create clear plasitics for use in gun sights during WW2. The adhesive nature of the compound made it useless for that task, but the scientists who discovered started selling it as a glue. Then during the early 60s they figured out how to turn it into a spray and marketed to the medical field as the so called liquid stiches.

Though the actual chemical makeup of superglue and liquid stiches is actually slightly different as Superglue and Krazyglue breakdown and become toxic to human tissue relatively quickly, "Liquid Stiches" are formulated to avoid this problem.

Interestingly superglue also has a thermal reaction when applied to cotton, it takes a fare amount to cause injury but if you managed to pour a large jar of it on a cotton shirt you happen to be wearing you cold actually get chemical burns from it.

Also since the adhesive quality of superglue comes from its reaction to moisture if you heat it into a vapor and let that vapor flow over objects it reacts with the moisture from fingerprints and the like and makes them more readily visible.

And that is your random knowledge for the day:)

nice to know you can pick random bits of knowledge whereever you go.

and whatever you do watch out for leaking tubes and don't get stuck to the glue tube. It almost happened to me yesterday, but instead just stuck my index and middle finger together. they came apart about 1hr later. it was cool
What's the word on Menasor and the giftset packaging? I know your gonna do it. You gotta do it. Please do it.
