I bought a 1:35 US M551 Sheridan Tank for a Warpath, 1:48 Type 74 Battle Tank & 1:72 MIG-25 Foxbat Jet for Blitzwing. I got them for such a good/low price it was perfect. They'll be MP/Alt. style like Ironhide.

 

I'm curious on why you chose those specific scales for the two tanks. What do you consider more important, in pairing a new custom with the Alternators you already own / have commissioned? The size of the robot, or the size of the vehicle?

 

 

It's something I've wrestled with in moving forward on my own Alternator additions, particularly those of the keychain-sized G1 robots, so I'd really like to hear what your thoughts on it are.

 

I went ahead and 'bumped' Warpath up from the micro-sized tank to something at least within spitting distance of the 1:20 Alternator scale; I used Leader-Class Brawl and just modded the head. As a robot though, instead of being shorter than the car-s-zed robots, he stands about smack-dab between them and Optimus. (In my reference snapshot, he stands next to my Pipes, who is a mis-transformed Skids.) After I completed Warpath, though, I now really want to try to create the Autobot's other onomatopoeic wonder, Powerglide -- and figuring out what scale of Cessna (not to mention the actual engineering of transformation ) is killing me!

TFMANIAC used ML Vengence, head is Longshot, sculpted the boot & glove cuffs and jacket.

[charlieBROWN]

awesome especially the hair sculpt details!

[evenflow]

Pretty cool, reminds me of Grifter from Wildcats.

[RickCoronel]

I should have some Transformer custom pictures by the weekend.

 

Possibly some Marvel customs this week since I talked to Dustin last week quickly. He's sending my Radioactive Man, finishing Hercules, X-Factor Cyke, AXM Kitty, Classic Brown Wolverine, Classic Wolverine. Then he'll start on UXM Warpath and others.

Man, you are killing me with all the transformer customs. I need to see some new ML customs.

[RickCoronel]

I know, I know. I haven't heard from Dustin since Christmas, I usually don't hear from him a month or two then bam 4-5 customs done. He's busy with College in N.Y. So it's possible these will be finished: Civil War Hercules, AXM Kitty, X-Factor Cyke, Classic Wolverine.

 

X-Factor Jean & Radioactive Man are finished already. I'll probably get to see some w.i.p's of ''Billy Tan'' Warpath & AXM ''Human'' Colossus, Brown Wolverine.

 

 

TFMANIAC's working on Blizzard, American Eagle, Speed Demon, Photon, and finishing Steel Spider.

[Leroy]

WOW Rick, Ironhide looks great, Love the fact he's in scale with the others

[RickCoronel]

 

 

 

 

 

30" Batman is being used.

I got Radioactive Man today. While he may not glow in the dark like originally planned, he's painted very nice. The skintone is so subtle and really looks great. The figure choice was perfect, he looks likesome of my favorite source art.

 

Definitely can't wait to get the Zemo, Mach-IV, Fixer, Songbird, Moonstone, Atlas by Dustin.

[kreyonkid]

man! it's been a while, but it's always a treat whenever i check in on this thread. awesome pictures man! that ironhide is fantastic!!!

[RickCoronel]

Thanks, I feel the same when I post. It's always great to see the replies from yourself, evenflow, Blackheart, and Leroy.
