Seacons uniting WIP

Hi guys,

Up to me old self again. Had some progress on this. This is transformable. Individual bots. I will take pics soon.

Here are the combined pics. Still need to attach arms and fresh paint.

One of the arms.

Also, just finished up a non-detachable Abominus, so sorry, no transformation on this one (still need to paint). But I couldnt let Seacons be non-transformable. He was one of my fav gestalts outside of Liokaiser.

Hope you guys like this update.

Seaking looks snazzy!

And Abominus is based off a Cybertron Prime? Nice idea using the "assault mode" extra wide legs as feet.

Thanks Trunks. Still a way to go on Seacons.

Yes, Abominus, I tried something different. Still as tall as the Liokaiser but a smaller range compared to my previous customs. Not bad outcome, I think the colour is abit offputting so that will be the next to get painted and updated to G1 colours.

Stay tuned.

BTW, any feedback is much appreciated. Do you guys actually like these customs or is it a case for eye of the beholder... :(

If not, I am going to work on my WIP silently... boo hoo...

I do want some creative input if any also.

I like em so keep posting. These masterpiece style combiners can be jaw-droppingly good. It's something I would do too but I don't have any junkers/spares and money to buy excess transformers :(. I would like to try a few combiners based off the Energon/Universe moulds personally.

As for creative input, could you use rockbuster as part of your seacons too? I know he's not part of the team but his shell might work well as the breastplate.

Keep posting us WIPs on all your projects dude. Dont keep it to yourself.....:D

The colours on Abominus IS a bit offputting right now but the overall build looks really great....I like how its more bulky and tough....I'd say it looks way better your way than the original G1 version.

Sorry i cant provide you with any constructive comments for Piranacon cos I always thought the original G1 Piranacon looks like a** to begin with anyways...

Your Seacon snaptrap from the other thread looks pretty good in alternate form but i cant see it being used here? did you use it here?

keep doing them there good for inspiration

Keep posting, it's always good to see people building stuff.

Thanks all for the support and good to know you guys do like these threads. I will for sure keep posting. I will be changing mode after the Seacons build to begin painting all those customs instead of build. So, hopefully, you will start to see some of the customs come to completion :)

Deonasis, thanks for the feedback. Rockbuster huh.. thats interesting idea. I am not familiar with that figure.. do you have the dimension for the body of Rockbuster? He's a crab right?

Bruticus, thanks man. Agreed on the colours of the BW or BM figures are quite mediaocre. I think we need to fix that. The same snaptrap was used on here. You didnt recognise the arms and leg behind the breastplate? hehe


Gamblor and loophole, thanks. I shall keep posting. :)

Here is a question to you guys. Should he be painted Seacons - Green or God Neptune white and gold colour scheme?

Lets take a vote that determins the outcome.

Well G1 piranahcon kinda have that vibrant color scheme..... but seeing God neptune, I kinda like his clean coloring of white and gold. Although your Gestalt might end up looking boring in God Neptune colors, So go for the G1 instead, I think that properly executed it blends well. Like one example of colouring that can break an otherwise nice figure is TFU powerglide - hasbro version.

These must be really huge figures. Heavy too!

If it was me, i'd paint it in G1 colours...

Point noted. He will be G1 colours.

Here is an update on the completed Abominus painted.

Abominus looks ominous. Erm so Does abominus disengage to component parts? The white parts which is Hungurr needs a bit of detailing going for him kelvin. Prolly some lines like in a Gundam just to break the monotony of the white parts. What Paint did you use, really shiny on the coulored ones?

Good use of RiD Megs/Galvy. Is there a reason why Cutthroat's limbs are lime green instead of cream?

Yep he's a crab but I don't have him either :( You'll need to ask someone in the photo request thread. And if I was painting it I'd go with the classic Seacons colours as it'll help show up more detail.

Here is a Piranacon update. Deonasis, sorry, I decided I couldnt have the chest as a crab.

Now to the paint shop.

These things just keep getting bigger.

I was kinda confused by all the bits and pieces from all the different toys sticking out, cant wait for the painted version.

Yeah they do. But for Piranacons, would you have it any other way.

Sorry about the pics before. Here are better pics but just as I got them into poses, the battery ran out on the camera.

Gotta invest in some grey sheets...

So lots of Unicron pieces, some classics Megatron barrels?

What are you using to attach the arms to the torso and what are the feet pieces made out of?

not that many Unicron pieces. I have in the body, a unicron piece, front of the shell.
Gundam wings on the shell.
Megatron barrels connected to Darth Vader world shell.
Ultra magnus feet pieces to join the shell to the barrels.
Joints are using Bionicles and some lego pieces for hands joints
and finally, the feet, thats using a Dinosaur set found in target. Its made from hard plastic.

Here is another update.

I have begun painting him now. Starting to take form but man, thats a lot to paint. I am enjoing it.

Also, showing his light up hand and created him a sword.
