Fiddling with the arm some.
I'll be repainting the limbs soon after a few more minor mods.

It's pretty awesome! I think it would have looked a little better with two sets of eyes like the original Liokaiser, but it's still pretty damn impressive.

That's better.
Yeah, it does look a little skinny, but not so much that it looks out of place. And of course we don't know yet if TFM intends to bulk it out any more - since it's presumably designed to be either Hellbat or Gaihawk (neither of which were proportioned anything like an A-10), maybe the robot legs could be made a little wider to add bulk to both the gestalt arm, and to the jet mode.
Do you intend to keep it as an A-10, TFM, or are you changing the jet design to make it a bit more G1?

TFM, not going to use the other jet mold for the arms?
it does look a little strange with the mouth-plate but no eyes. it makes it look more like he's got a plate covering a tiger mouth, rather than a tiger head as a helmet on another head. but he hasn't said if the head is finished yet.
I wonder if the other guy doing an Energon LioKaiser is ever going to continue work on his. I don't think either person is making a 6th member. I would, and while I'd love to try my interpretation of it, I don't know if I ever will, or could.

Actually the other guy (no, I can't remember who it was either) was planning to have six members. Five were to combine in the same manner as standard Energon combiners, and a Strongarm (converted, IIRC, into Jaguar/Jaruga) was to form a sort of backpack, presumably kinda like the butt-formers (Glide, Diego etc) on the micro-gestalts.

Yeah, but it doesn't count towards the combined mode. It's like whoever is the 6th member of the Piranacons who forms a weapon.
Pretty sure the name of the other guy doing a custom was something like "LioKaiser".

He has eyes!!!!
The angle of the pic just hides it behind the teeth. You can see the outline just a bit...

Looking godly so far, TFM.

You know, I'd like you to do that if you want.
I'm going to have a Custom package made for this set when it's done and could use some fan art for the box...

Nope. I want to but I'm not investing in it anymore. I've already invested too much and Ken at KCC owes me over 500$ worth of work. (You know it'll never get done, that and he wants me to pay for something new for eack part he woes if I'm going to have him make parts so he still can make more money.F* That.)
I wish those luck in trying to do so themselves but this market really is fickle and you never know what is ganna happen.

All right. I deceided that I like his arms as they are in the first pic and I'm ganna keep that transformation.
The main base colors for the rest of this guy should be done tonight so look for updates within the next couple days.
Yea, I know, I'm pumping them out quick now but I have to finnish them so i can make some money and be able to go to Botcon.
I hope to have custom Packaging for all of what you've been updated with today. Wish me luck.

All right. Here's the tank guy so far.
He's pretty much done but he's ganna need some paint touchups and clear gloss coat sealer to protect the paint when i'm done with the others.

KEWL! Thanks for the info, I really love all your customs, but I was wondering if there was any way to kinda beef up his lower arms, they looks to skinny.

No. I like them as they are. The winner of the future auctions for them can transform them any way they like when they get him but for now he's mine and this is how I like it.
Sorry. lol
UPDATE!
Here's Gaihawk!! (So far, again, final paint aps later)
Enjoy!!!
