finally finished Blackout for real

after repainting him and doing a few tweaks on his back. I never got over the fact that his head is on the same hight then his shoulders.
(see repaint topic)

I started moving his shoulder parts,
I cut away the plastic that normally holds the shoulders up and added a strong magnet that now holds everything together,
but now the shoulderparts are more tilted because they connect with the body on a different spot, more to the back. (I tried to make a picture that would make sence but did not succeed - sorry)

this change is freeing up Blackouts head, and making him more movie accurate and "normal". To me, He looks a lot more relaxed now .
The sides of his shoulders now look like they are his shoulders instead of something that just hangs there.

the explanation for the folded up back and scorponok cage are also in the see repaint topic

PS: these pics are very color accurate this time, I used a better camera

one last time the original

Nice idea. Of course it limits his shoulder mobility a little but it does look good.
