My precious customs. Some new pics and now with Primal & Golden Disks
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2007 9:01 amFinally, here are my customs. I apologise in advance for the crappy quality of the pics, combination of a crap camera (my dad got a new one and I got the reject), my poor ability at close range photography and shaky hands (Yes, I'm terrible at those steady hand games too 
). I have tried to take better ones and those are sideways for some stupid reason. They are flipped the right way on Photobucket, but they are coming out sideways here. Sorry about that, I don't know where the problem is.
Tarantulas.
This was the first custom I did, and I'm very proud of it. A lot of the detail is lost in the pic, but his head has gold trim around that circle on his forehead, as well as gold dots. His wavy lip type thingies are silver.
Here is a better view of his head. You can see the gold on the last pic.
Here is Rampage. I made his face and spikes silver like the show, but kept his Mohawk and eyebrows as I thought he looked a bit too plain without them. And yes, those missiles are inside the barrels. It took me a month per barrel to get those things right, but it was certainly worth it. I can't get the pic to flip the right way up for some bizarre reason, even though it's the right way around on Photobucket.
Inspired by Sunstar’s repaint, here is my Archiville. You can’t see it clearly in these pics, but he has black boots, a dark blue shirt, white hair and that silver cap of his. He also has two human arms, not a silver cybernetic one.
You can’t see him very well in this one, but you can see where he sits on Screamer, and I included it because I love the way Screamer came out in this pic.
Here is my repaint of the Scorpinok that came with Blackout, inspired by someone whose name I now forget.
Here is my Classic Astrotrain. My first complete body repaint and inspired by someone else whose name I forget.
The thrusters look much better painted like this than leaving them white. Even on the original, they should have been done like this.
Look Ma! A train with Wings!
Due to problems with the painting, the wings broke off. I was able to glue them back on, but toon Astrotrain will never be able to move them again.
I like pistons and metallic cables to be silver.
As well as his wings breaking off, his right toes got stuck up in robot mode (that was fun to fix) and the lower part of the cockpit decided it would be fun to break the ball socket. So I glued the window to the lower part and they just sorta hang on for dear life. In case anyone noticed he was missing his right toes. Because of all these breakages due to the repainting, I did something I never do and got another version of the same mould.
Here is a much more co-operative full body repaint. Cl Starscream into Skywarp. He has the best paint scheme of all the seekers and I didn’t like the colour of his weapons on the official version. Well, that and the two pack never appeared here. This is the basis of my sig pic over at TCA
Yes, he has a white stripe running down his lower leg. It’s a nice touch, I thought.
Formation Flying.
This is Outburn. This is the same guy that appears in my fanfic ‘Stunshock’.
My largest repaint, and one I am damn proud of.
A left handed Transformer. Bet you thought they were a myth! Close up pics so you can see the detail, instead of poor quality wide shots.
And just to prove the extra exhaust under the doors don’t get removed for transformation, here’s they are on his ankles.
And lets not forget my lego Devastator and Menasor which have proper focused photos. Ah well. You can still make out what is what in the above photos. But if people really want me to, I'll try and take better ones.
Here is Primal. His weapons, chest and faceplate have been done.
Finally, The Golden Disks. These were 2 Lego Slizer disks.
And yes, Megs can hold them in his hand, tail or behind those thrusters on his back.
