Did you make this? Interesting... can't believe you have money to buy surplus Prowls... very nice stuff though, customizing stuff is fun. My buddy customized his Unicron... looks real good, said he had fun doing it too. If that's your thing as well, rock on... Firestreak it is.

If I had the cash...

[Silverbolt]

Yes I made, it same with all the customs that I post. Its just wrong to claim someone elses customs as your own. As for cost, well the datsun's are cheap enough on ebay, around 25 shipped. So it isn't to bad, plus a few of them are commisions, I usually get enough to pay for the one for them along with one for myself.

I'm glad you laid off the Seekers, damn you for buying all the parts. I can't find parts to complete my Decepticon Jets. @grumpy@

[Silverbolt]

Well most of mine used reproduction parts or were reissues.

Oh yeah? got any extra black fists?

[Silverbolt]

Not even enough to finish my jets. I've been waiting for Ken at Transrepro to get back on line. Then I'll have a surplus, though they'll all be flawed in some way, I buy the ones that he doesn't think are good enough to sell.

I really like thi scustom Datsun a lot.....you just keep improving with each one you create Silverbolt. Excellent work.

Very nice job. It remindes me of Fire and Guts Genri.

Indeed ! Maybe he should be called Fire Guts Bluestreak ! @smilepunch@ @smilepunch@

[Silverbolt]

Well that is where the colors came from. And if you look at the listing at Seibertron that is how I describe the figure. Personally though I believe that my second Redstreak is the superior figure.

I like 90% of the customs you do so it is honestly hard for me to choose favourites heheheh

[Silverbolt]

My next one is probably going to be a Sixshot repaint. Bloodfang. To bad that for now he's weaponless. I'm going to have to rig something up.

Ohh that'll be cool ! Sixshot is a neat figure even if he's a brick ;-) What colour scheme are you thinking of going with ? I'd assume red will be one (hence Bloodfang).

[Silverbolt]

Red/black/silver. And the red which will be his main body color will be splotty in places, more of a maroonish, so that it looks something like dried blood or battle damage. The character is a Decepticon Gladiator.

[Grady]

Yeah I think that the red will work well as the main colour of him. The Red/Silver/Black combo sounds like a pretty sound choice. I think the "wings" would look pretty neat silver.

[Silverbolt]

Thats the color they were going to be with some black trim work.

[Grady]

Black to accent a little bit of detail ? What colour are you going to the head/face ? Black ?

[Silverbolt]

Probably silver. I haven't really gotten all that far along with him, so I'm thinking that some of the coloring is goign to be on the fly.

[Grady]

Oh yeah for sue. And if you decide that a certain colour isn't fitting very well you can always just reapint over it. Is the Sixshot the biggest repaint/custom you have attempted or have there been others. I know you do the majority of Datsun's and Seekers but I was just curious to see if you've done anything else in a larger scale.

[Silverbolt]

I've done three Jetfire/Skull Valk knockoffs. Orginally one of them were to become bloodfang, but I rather save that last one I have for something different.

[Grady]

Do you have a link to any pictures of them ? I love looking at your custom work.

[Silverbolt]

These were all done fairly early when I started doing Customs. the light blue one was my first, and only one done in enamal spray paint. It looks alot better in pics then in person.
