First post and some customs in progress

Recommended Posts

Hi there :wave , just joined here and wanted to show you some of my custom in progress TFs. Please let me know if you have any comment or critique.

 

First the custom that every TF kitbasher has made: Armada Scourge/Nemesis Prime; this could seem kinda boring but I had to put a lot of work into him, because since I used a bootleg Prime as the base, I had to make up for myself the lower arm articulations, the bootleggers modified the mold a lot at that area. Plus I remade his mini-con so Prime can hold it as a sword and I modified the mini-con's chest so it can bend, to make it less protruding. I renamed him Fury, as RID Scourge's sword.

This other one is what I call Ultra Optimus Prime, it's just a repaint (with a little customization work in the face plate) I did a couple of months ago, I can post it now, since I recently got a scanner, so here he is: ultra Optimus Prime, with unpainted fists and gun from my G1 Ultra Magnus; I still need to get those parts plus another missile launcher (an almost impossible task when you live in a country with few TF collectors like Chile) but I'm glad with the results so far.

It's a relatively simple repaint but I've never seen it done before and it answers (at least for me) the question of how would have looked the Powered Convoy mold if it would have been released as an enhanced OP and not as Ultra Magnus.

This are some pics of my in progress G1 constructicon sized Hauler; I'm making it mostly from a bootleg constructicon set and parts from an oversized bootleg aerialbot Fireflight . Now I have to think of a way to add it to the combined Devastator, maybe I'll add it in Devastator's back or maybe as a targetmaster of sorts, so Dev can use Hauler's crane arm as a sword.

This is a seeker I got without any accesories; I used parts of a Knock Off Galaxy Shuttle for the missing parts, GS's wings have the same connection type to the main body as the seekers. Still need some more work though; plus wing stickers:

So, I was left with a wingless Galaxy Shuttle body, and I thought....mmmm, this way he looks like a bullet train of sorts. I discovered GS's back looks even better in bot mode than the front side, and this is what I've already, bot mode only as I just begun attaching the wheels. I'm looking for a good name for this one so, if anyone come up with a good one please let me know.

nice work man but i would refrain from calling you Seeker windbreaker, unless you want it to be the but of many fart jokes

here is the cool thing...look at your "Ultimate Prime"...now do a web search and find the pic of Issue 1 of the Marvel Transformer comic...you will see what I'm talking about...and yes...change windbreakers name...lol

The head the big legs and the overall bulky look is quite similar to my custom.

 

Oh, and well; lets just let the seeker unnamed for the time being :redface :tflaugh

overall realy cool

but, pick a much lighter color for your backdrop

i can barely see your prime repaint

great work with the minicon though

 

windbreaker :tfpuke .....huh?!

I like the ultra prime... looks pretty cool.

Wow man, all those are really nice. Well actually everything but the nemesis Prime... I've just have my fill of Black Supercon repaints. ;) But I'm loving the Ultra Magnus recolor, especially thr modification to the helmet. Really cool. Good luck finding the fists and launcher.

 

The seeker is nice too, but as others said, I think a namechange is in need- I dunno if you have the same euphemisms in Chile, but the break wind in North America is to fart... =) It looks like the fists are different on that seeker as well?

 

And the constructicon Hauler is just a stroke of genius- I would buy that if it was massed produced.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys!!!

 

Oh well, we don't even speak english here in Chile, so that's why I didn't get the euphemism when I first came up with the seeker's name :redface But I got it when the guys first told me about the fart jokes here :tflaugh . Now I need a new name for him :roll.

 

Anyway, yeah the Thundercracker didn't came with his fists so I used the lower arms and fists from a cheap gundam-like robot, the same that gave me the chest and head for my unnamed train bot. The cockpit cover is also a provisional thing, it's actually the cockpit window of a 1:79 mitsubishi Zero plastic model, but I need a replacement as I want to finish that model some day.
