Hello all. I mostly lurk on the boards here but I've finally gotten brave enough to tackle a scratchbuild. Most of you are probably familiar with Steelskin ( http://johnspangler.com/steelskin/index.html ) which did inspire this project. I'm taking it a bit further. Mine will be scaled to Energon/Cybertron deluxe size, feature full articulation, and sport full Back to the Future gear. The arms & head are missing, but will transform like Cybertron Downshift's. The time travel booster things will become the robot feet. The character's name will be Flashback. I'm a big fan of media machines, and Hasbro will never do another DeLorean, so I'm doing my own.
Attached are pics of a PAPER mockup of this project to show size and how it will transform. I am using this as a guide to size my plastic components. More to come, so stay tuned!
