The Energon Pub

Welcome Seibertronians to
Hotconvoy's custom/idea/mod thread!
All my customs/mods will be here in this thread!
I have a lot of customs that i'm woking on including....
Genrations barricade,
CW/PotP matching(deluxe class) Thundercracker(posted),and Skywarp,
Combiner Wars Braver(posted),
Titans Return Cilffjumper,
Combiner Wars Slingshot(not Quickslinger)
CW/PotP Pyro(he's gunna take some time i need Inferno to finish him),
And lots more!
I don't have time to post them right now , but i will soon so stay tooned!
Cliffjumper is mostly done just haven't posted him yet. I'll try to post him soon
Also of anyone wants specifics on what i did for any of my customs just let me know.

So here are some WIP pics of Combiner Wars (deluxe class) Thundercracker!
He was made from Combiner Wars G2 Air Raid and Skydive plus a few extras from here and there. this means that i've done no painting on him what so ever.
I still have to switch the tailwings with black ones and maybee some paint work.
Will update when i have done so.
Update: i have cleaned off the wings so Thudercracker is a G2 Autobot no more + new pics

Just wanted to add some new suff so...here is the leftovers figure from making Thundercracker(above). I'm not sure on on a name yet so if you've got any ideas let me know . The only ideas i'v had are Skyhigh or Eageleye
Update: New head = new pic

this might be a bit late, but i feel like you should change the faction symbol on thundercracker's wing

Not late at all. That's why i started my own custom thread . I would like to but i don't have any decepticon symbols, but something sould be done i'm just not sure what

Here's a digibash by Leokearon ( leokearon-s-digibashes-t105245.php) that i'm making a real thing . It started as Combiner Wars Wheeljack that i will be dying most of the white plastic blue. I haven't tried dying yet but my fellow customizer Broadside27 swears by it so i'll be givving it a try

Hey anyone know who did this custom? I would love to have one made!

Thanks

That would be Broadside27 at broadside27-s-repaints-and-customs-t109063.php he had it on ebay but i think it already sold (just checked it has) i don't know if he does comissions. Imight be willing to coppy it to the best of my ability (if you want to comission me ).
It's fine ,but i am wondering why you chose to post your question here in "Hotconvoy's custom/idea/mod thread"

So i have a new custom to share Combiner Wars Braver! He was made from G2 Deadend with G2 Dragstrip's head. He is no longer a brainmaster, but he does combine so
Laster and Blacker are on the way but are not done yet. I will of course post them when they are done

I realy like your customs!
I am planning to start making my own so I was wondering if you had any tips?

Thank you very much. And as far as tips do you mean in general or the ones i've made?

Just general tips.

Well i would say
#1. Partswap whenever your able. All the customs in i've done are useing no paint
#2. Tea tree oil is the best paint remover that i've found. It's very slow, but the end result is worth it. If it not looking good when your done then go over it one more time (with a clean Q-tip) once dry rub it with your thumb.
Have fun, and good luck

Bump, first post updated!

Looks really good! Laster seems straightforward from wildrider/brake-neck, but I have no idea how you're making Blacker. Can't wait to see how this turns out.

Thanks so Laster was going to be made from sunstreeker, but i might use G2 Breakneck insted. And as for Blacker i'm realy not sure yet , but i'm thinking G2 Dragstrip

Oh sorry, must have missed that. The torso is mostly black paint. I stripped it using 91% rubbing alcohol and then dyed it that light blue. I dyed the legs also. The plastic took the dye really well. Good luck!
