Hi everyone,

 

I know it's been a little while since I've posted any new works here or anywhere for that matter, but I am back at the kitbashing table with a whole slew of new stuff coming down the pike......I had to take a little breather from doing commissions of customs because I got a little burned out.

 

In the middle of all of this, I am finally doing some stuff for me! =)

 

With a little help from Decoy13 and a HUGE amount of help from Delta of Reprolabels, I've designed my own custom decals........And learned quite a bit about vector graphics and CorelDRAW. The first figure to come, which is almost done, is ALT Inferno. Heavy modding to this figure has been done, to the point other than what is seen, the hood becomes a shield, and the grill and the front split bumper are now all attached and will eventually become the chest for Inferno. ALT Grapple will be next and will share the same style of modified form as ALT Inferno. The decals I designed for this are now on it.

 

Let me know your thoughts on this......I've been waiting to do this one for a VERY long time!

Enjoy,

wow!

Looking very sharp. Final product should be great.

Thanks for the comments so far.......he is still getting roof lights and will have a custom tank that will strap on his shoulders and have a hose w/ nozzle that he can hold on to. Tank will be able to fit in rear of Pick-up.

Why on earth did I expect to see a Predacon fire ant.

Er... whoops! I was totally thinking of the BW character also. Still cool. :)

ah !! nice as always !!!

 

cant wait to see the face !! and if your alt hoist is any indication it will rock !!!

 

keep them coming !!

This looks awesome so far! Have you thought about making it a September 11, 2001 New York City Fire Department tribute type of thing?

Damn, that is seriously sweet. Great idea using the Dodge Ram for Inferno. He needs a big, bulky body compared to the other Autobots.

** UPDATE **

 

Hello again,

 

I wanted to show an update on the piece I just finished for the chest. The connecting piece that goes on the pins is literally the BACK of Cybertron Dirt Boss's robot mode. I cut it on top of the hinge to get the desired cut w/ my dremmel to remove it from the pins on the figure. I then cut it down and reshaped it to what you see. Once that was done, I cut a wide enough notch in the middle to match the width of the combined slot on the inside of the upper portion of the new chest piece. I masked off whee I was going to be gluing, and then painted it satin black to match the upper body. Once dried, I pulled off the tape off and mounted it just as you see, to get the final desired result.

 

Enjoy the updated pictures!
