The only modification I made to the head was sanding the "ears" on top down to a straighter edge, instead of sticking out as much as they did.  Of course I had to dremel the hole for the neck peg.  Other than that, I just painted it.  :)

* EDIT - I Just Found Them :redface *

Really like what youd did here...I knew you were up to something!  Hahaha...

 

Anyway...he looks awesome, I think the alternate mode you chose was well-chosen.  I assume you have a Soundwave in progress maybe?  Or maybe not since Skids is already blue...but you good at differentiating paint colors...I'm sure you could mix your own!

 

I guess the only thing I don't think I like about the bot mode is the blue on the legs.  Maybe it just needs a little blue somewhere else?  I like that it breaks it up...but something about the blue.

 

The alternate mode is perfect...I get a serious 80's break dancer vibe from it!  I like the little touches, like the buttons on the rear windshield.

 

Are you using this as G1, er...Japanese G1 Soundblaster, or Cybertron/Galaxy Force Soundblaster?

squall, you know me, I'm always up to something, usually no good  :tfevil

 

Ever since I had gotten my extra Skids (mid December when he was released), I had this idea of making Soundwave/blaster.  Since SW is blue, I thought that would be very redundant, so Soundblaster was the most logical choice.  When I first started brainstorming for this guy, I had tenatively named him "DJ Blaster."  After I saw the photos of GF Soundwave, I knew I had to use his head and accessories!  As the project went on, I found myself for one of the few times wanting to try to go as strictly with the G1 SB color choices and such as best as I could without forcing details (like the hood or grill as a tape deck door or something). 

 

With this in mind, as I worked, I found the legs to be especially fitting for SW/SB.  I also found myself pretty fond of the choice for blue on the legs, especially in contrast to the silver.  It not only adhered to the G1 SB color guide, but it also gives a hint of SW in there too.  I like the hint of SW being present, but not overtly.  The G1 version also used the blue to break up the colors in much the same way; I don't think it looks out of place on the G1 version and it seems to work well here.

 

I really wanted SB to look hip ("bling" even, if I must use the term), but also really cold at the same time.  Totally blacking out the windows I feel just pushes that idea over the top.  I also go that same vibe to him having a breakcdandcing vibe to him while also seeming very modern. 

 

In terms of what I'm using him for . . . I'm using him for Alternators Soundblaster  :tfgrin
