Alright Seibertronians, be prepared to have your faces blown away! Those of you who have been following my WIP thread will be better prepared for the face rocking you are about to receive!

I'm sure most of you have seen all the concept art for the Transformers in ROTF. This one is based off of Ben Procter's concept robot he made just for kicks. Septicon Warrior GUMP, if you can't tell, is a portable toilet, i.e. a Port-A-Potty.











*a side note: the pelvis/lower section is now closer to the torso with less of a gap, but the pictures don't show it. When I was posing him for the last picture, the ball joint peg snapped, so I had to grind it down, drill a hole and implant a new one (one from Reverb,... they are MUCH MUCH stronger than the Gundam parts.) This gave me a stronger ball joint, and a better look since there is less empty space between his pelvis and torso. After the fix, I posed him in his action Bazooka pose.


I made him using skeleton from ROTF Scout class Reverb, Styrene sheeting, and some Gundam parts.
I hand painted him and added the poo detail by thinning out a custom brown and putting a few globs on the toilet seat then spreading it around using an Air Duster can. The splattering was done by holding up a brush with the thinned out brown and blasting it with the duster can. I spent many many many hours on this guy and had lots of fun making him. He definitely gets a spot at the front of my collection.

Thanks alot for looking!

I have no idea how to convey how much I love this (mostly because I don't want to make a bad pun or speak ironically).

this. is. AWESOME!

This is utterly disgusting so I'll guess you're happy cos that's what you were going for, right? You've done some really great stuff, I look forward to seeing more of your work!

Thanks for the comments! I was surprised at how well the poo effects turned out on the seat. It does look very disgusting, more so in person because you can see the depth of the brown color, and layers of it spilling over each other.

Oh that's very disturbing.
But, I love it.

this is great! Just one question though, does he transform?

Sadly, he does not transform. I wanted more of a CG accurate toy than a transformable, not so good looking one... also, I'm no way near skilled enough to work out the transformation from scratch.

The hand makes me think of the Hand-sticking-out-of-a-toilet-guy from Majora's Mask.
