THUNDERCRACKER (TF Classics)

the official thundercracker classics fig is included in the botcon exclusive boxset along with the must have "thrust".
though, the price of the boxset is quite expensive, people are asking for a starscream repaint into thundercracker.

this is one of the thundercracker i did for someone.
basically a starscream classics figure.
repainted the entire figure and added details.

some people ask me, will this repaint resist any paintchip when transforming? i told them, it will if you transform it very slowly and carefully. so far, there's no paint chips on this custom when transformed. just learn the proper way of transforming a repainted TF figure.

here he is...

Hey Rateeg.
Nice paints on TC dude. you are too modest mate.

I'm currently trying to paint some classics TC and sunstorms for my collection too.

btw, i found this painting tutorial you posted whilst i was browsing last night for other tutorials.

that is you right?

You may be a rookie in the land down under, but you are certainly no rookie when it comes to customs. :D

keep it up.

that looks very UNcrappy to me

sweet work bro, show me more!?! :D

no man, i may have done tons of customs but i think there's no perfection to it. it's a matter of constant learning, trial and error and practice.
and yes, that was my tutorial a couple of years ago.
thanks bro for the kind comment. :)

thank you to those people who peeked and left a comment at my ugly work. :)
i think this was done when the first TF classics starscream came out, that would be a few years back.
im still learning so bear with me.
i'd be coming up with a sideswipe custom maybe next week. so im crossing my fingers to not disappoint myself and all of you guys. lol :)

thanks again to all!!!

Sweeet!:D

Woah!

Glad to be your neighbor dude! :D

where are you from, sir?

Southbank. Just a few minutes away from your place. ;)

isn't that in the city?
hope to meet you sir one day. :)
