Fun with HTTD legands class Ravage

Well, I have made it well known that i hate mono eye (except Shocwave that is where it belongs) on most transformers, none more-so that Ravage. I have a couple legends Raveges and decided to custom his face to give him a more panther look with two eyes. I made him to mimic a little more G1. I sat for a couple weeks wondering what I could do to customize the second one because i wanted to do something different. Finally my 9 year old daughter (who loves TFs especially female ones) said "why don't you make him look like Cheetor". I hugged her and said that would be a great idea and it would be cool if I could pull it off. So Started.

Now, I am just getting started in customizing/repainting TFs so obviously these aren't perfect so i'm sure many of you will make fun of my handy work or lack thereof but I wanted to post these and get some feed back. Do you like them? Hate them? Waste of time? Meh?

And was wondering if anyone has toyed with the idea of doing something with their legends Ravage, I'd like to hear ideas and see pics.

I know I'll leave the black ones name Ravage but haven't though of a name for the yellow one yet. i want to make him an autobout sorta an anti Ravage. Maybe I could just stick with Cheetor?

Any thought or feedback are welcome positive or negative. I'm trying to learn so critism is the best way to work on my shortfalls. Hope you like them.

Nice! I like the spots on Cheetor. Although, the ones on his tail look almost like stripes.

You should do Shattered Glass Ravage or Tigatron too!

I love these! And your daughter is right, the Cheetor one works. I like that one better than the original color scheme for sure. You should come do the eye on mine and make it right (with 2 eyes)! :P

Nice work. :APPLAUSE:
I have only one legend Ravage and it belonged to my son. So I won't change his color if he does not ask.

Hmmmm, how about Snarl in Cybertron style?

If your daughter likes female TFs then why not call it Cheetara?

That works so well, nice job. You should do a Tigatron too.

Catilla would work too. I always thought Catilla sounded more female.

Thanks for the kind words and those names do sound good. I asked her and she wants Cheetara. I think ubertenorman is right. I'll redo the tail.

I never thought about Tigatron. I might just give that a shot.

The paint job is nice, but the figure doesn't look like Ravage. It looks like a komodo dragon painted to look like Ravage. But hey, you didn't make the fig. The paint jobs are good on both. Nice job.
