(Yes, I know, another) IDW Style Whirl
Posted: Wed Aug 27, 2014 6:11 pmI would like to start this post by acknowledging the people who influenced me most in the making of this custom:
Firstly, it was Jin Saotome who gave me the idea to use the HFTD Tomahawk figure as a base; you can see his interpretation of this character here.
And secondly, it was our very own Blurrz who inspired me to take this project off the shelf with his own custom, and without whom I may not have found the next influence;
And last but most certainly not least, TFW2005 user Javaco, who designed this.
And so with further adieux, I give you...Whirl.
So there it is! Enjoy the pics, let me know what you think.

- In person, the paint color I chose - actually, I had to mix it myself - looks pretty white until you put next to something that's actually white.
- Vehicle mode. I tell you, as will probably anyone else who had to take this b***h apart...this thing was a b***h to take apart.
- I gave him Orion Pax's gun because it looks good on him.
- You may be asking yourself: "why did Nemesis Maximo put a giant gun on top of a helicopter, compromising the aerodynamics of the airframe?"
I'll tell you: because F*** you, that's why! Lolololololol
So there it is! Enjoy the pics, let me know what you think.
