Seeing Metroplex standing beside Fort Max, I have to say I like your version a whole lot better then the factory made one! Good Job!!

Dang, I didn't realize where you were going with the head. You did an amazing job all around! Of course now, Cybertron Metroplex looks like a heap of dog crap next to your Fort Max.

I don't have the Cyb. metroplex mold,though i always loved it.
If i did have it i'd take your Fortress Maximus as an example to kitbashing it.Holy smokes this thing is awesome.(would prolly look even better next to some Legends class figures)

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the feedback 
I haven't gotten much more work done since I posted these images, as I've had a very busy week. I'm still working on the hand weapons and the torso guns. I will be doing more work on Saturday, and should have some new pics to post after the weekend.

That turned out really well! However posing him with his crotch sticking out makes him seem less mighty than Fort Max is.

Thanks guys 
The latest:







The torso-cannons and Master-sword are complete. And I've added a visor over Max's eyes. I've started work on the track sections and also the double-laser.
More to come this weekend!

Oh, my word, that's slightly good. I like the touch on the back of the head, simulating Cerebros' arms. And I assume the Master Sword is scratchbuilt? 'Cause that's a beautiful bit of workmanship.
So, do we get to see an alt-mode at all?

Actually, the Visor sides are very close to even. What you are seeing is the red "shadow" falling on his cheek as the light filters through it:

Clockwise from the upper left:
Lit from viewer's left, Lit from above, Lit from below, Lit from directly in front.
Ramrider: Thanks! I'm glad you like the back of the head. And yes, the Master-Sword is scratch-built. Glad you like it!
I will take some alt-mode pics a little later. However, the base mode will have to wait until I'm done with him. Gotta finish the tracks and the other add-ons.

Thanks rhinox!
Max's hand-weapons are almost complete:







Tomorrow I'll be painting them, and working on the track-sections. He's getting very close to completion. I promise alt-mode pics when he's done

Damn man! The weapons and the head make this guy so freakin' awesome. He's so bad-ass he should see a proctologist. He'd be perfect if the head transformed. Yes, I remember why it doesn't, but still!
