The Energon Pub

I could think of no better way to appreciate the greatest Kitbasher in history than by this, sine it may be awhile before we get a full gallery. He inspired so many of us to chop up and paint out TF's. He taught me so much with what he shared, from kitbashing to even using his ideas for my Gundam kits. It'd be great if more people helped out and posted images of their favorites as well. So here's to Bill!

Number one, my personal favorite, Alt. Dinobot:

A VERY close second, Alt. Bludgeon:

Alt. Megatron, looking like the badass he his:

Alt. Cosmos. This really tripped me out the first time I saw it:

An original character, with a great back story, Street screamer:

The Soundwave we deserve but never got:

Finally a way to make E.Landmine cool (as Rodimus):

And a quirky custom that you gotta love, Gundam Galvatron!!:

So many to choose from but two of my personal favorites were MP PM optimus from Botcon 2005:


and WW Megatron from Botcon 2006:


I'm sure that classics sixshot he was working on for this years botcon would have been ace as well...

This one is my fav from the late master

This one really got me going so much that I wanted to order a repro of the head for my own. It never even got a Gallery... Stormbringer Thunderwing

this is one of my faves by the late great kitbashing god:

DOUBLESPY


PUNCH

COUNTERPUNCH


R.I.P

He inspired me to draw and keep going. I wish I knew how to kitbash, thoug, that War Within Megatron is amazing, and all of them are. RIP, Bill, I wish I had a chance to know you.

Truly a tragic loss, I was a fan of his work. I just recently heard of his passing.

I'm lucky enough to own the Punch/Counterpunch custom Billy made. I sent him an alt to "pimp out" for his "Pimp My Bot" project that never took off. He came up with the double spy idea and he's just as impressive in person.
