Blackie's Frenzy & Rumble

[lcz128]

so, mr blackie commissioned me to paint up two shadow warriors as frenzy and rumble!

More details on this later but he's asked me if I was going to post this here so I thought I'd get a move on it!

5) Brush daily! Or more seriously, brush the pieces, then rinse them after :3

6) dry with cloth

8) here's another shot of the primed pieces... there's a crapload of them really -

9) and this was when I was trialing out my new air compressor on these - I kind of thinned down the solution a bit much - but it got the job done :)

From there I didn't really take that many shots... ^^; but I did mix a whole bunch of different colours for the metallic blue and purple used. I also used the chrome foil sheets for the chests :)

They look awesome! The shades of color chosen also makes them fit into Classics excellently.

[Doubledealer]

Wowsers, they look blardy incredible! You've done a fantastic job there, lcz128. :)

[rampagesss]

wow they look great! colors are spot on!
with the amount of people repainting the shadow warriors into rumble and frenzy, soon theres going to be more rumble and frenzy then shadow warriors :p

[Vector Prime]

:eek: Wowsers... love the look of them - being so small, they'd be so fiddly to paint too, so there obviously has been plenty of time and effort put into those.

Great work mate!

Only two questions though, which is Frenzy and which is Rumble? (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=7353) :D

[1AZRAEL1]

They look superb, still better than the repaint that just got announced. I'dd still buy yours over theirs :p

Since this is a non official artistic creation it depends on the preference of the artist.

[GoktimusPrime]

Whoa, great work!

Simple. Frenzy's the sexy one. :cool:

Agreed, much prefer your colour scheme. Especially on Frenzy (ur red one).

Thanks a lot guys :)

[Vector Prime]

Awww man!!! I was going to post this

But nobody's answered my question yet? :confused:

You created them lcz128, so which one (in your Universe) is Frenzy and which one is Rumble?

Or are you leaving that for blackie (seeing as he commissioned a set and has 50% say)? :D

(I'm just playing with you man, they're great and I love the look of them - I'm even semi-inspired to get a couple and do the same :))

:eek:
Those are awesome, good job.
(Also I knew the Shadow Warrior was small but I never realized how small until I saw these pictures.:eek:)

The color scheme is indeed much better than the 'official' ones.

WOW they fit in so Perfectly scale wise with soundwave and ravage. and the group pic looks awsome, might have to try these myself :D

[lcz128]

Thanks for all the feedback guys -

Just handed these over to Blackie at last today - but before doing so I did a bit of work in illustrator to redo the front of the box image...
(I didn't have time to do a detailed image - just to block out the main colours and rush out the door to try and trade toys... )
