I Am UNICRON

Well thought I would post up my newest custom, I started it on May 6th and completed it today so took a long time working on it every now and then.

Anyway it’s a Darth Vader repainted into Unicron, which works perfect since the Death Star is a perfect circle,
As far as modification go I made the chest out of several layers of styrene sheets to get a layered look to it. The spikes on the arms and shoulders are made from Nail since it was easy. The horns and feet came from the Armada Unicron and the face is my fist sculpted face I have ever done and I love how it came out.
I used all tamiya paint and the shell was dry brushed in 4 different colors for a better look and way enjoy the chaos bringer him self

p.s. I decided to paint the background for a better look
more pics can be found here

I would also like to thank kelvinchang99 for the Unicron Armada Horns and Feet :D

Fantastic work there, the nails work a treat. I would have not thought to use them, mostly because I'd probably stab myself with them while playing with the figure!

very cool

Can we have a spot of the alt mode pls. Looks great!

That's hot!:eek:

love the space diorama with the stars and planets, very nice :cool:

Wow! Absolutely fantastic. Great job!

alt mode! alt mode! alt mode! alt mode! :)

Im liking this a lot!

Awesome work my man.. I am glad the feet and horns went to good use. The chest is done very well. Nice paint work too. Impressive.

That is freaking sweet man.
Now I am half tempted to try and make one for myself.

Yes, please show us alternate modes!!!

Btw, got any plans to make the unicon wings/orbital rings?

JUST WOW!!!!
awesome man!
love it!!

Thanks for the kind words everyone :D

Yea i was gong to use the Armada ones but they were to big and looked bad, so i might make some soon.

As for alt mode i show that soon as transforming my Vader into planet mode took me over 30min, Its so hard to get it into a circle! but will try soon and post up some pics :D

Great job, Rampagesss! I especially love that metallic effect you've achieved on the outer shell, very effective. The background is great too, is that from your personal observatory? :p

Hey Michael,

Awesome job there... very very impressive!
Thanks for the email... great to see another Vader to Unicron custom.
I love the perfect symmetry you've got there with the custom parts (face, chest, feet).
Great work man!
Hopefully in the future when I get more time (when the kids are more manageable that is) I'll get back to customizing :rolleyes:
Looking forward to more of your customs, mate!
Excellent job man! :)

^^ Hey, Yea i thought i would send you a email since with out seeing yours i would have never done mine and loved yours so much i just had to do one :D

Also found out that i wont transform because of the horns:mad:
So am grinding away the plastic planet part so that it will transform, so planet mode pics will be up soon :D

I didnt even know there was a Death Star figure....

Such an awesome custom figure there I have to admit... :)

Very cool, mate. Lots of work gone into that head sculpt too. Really did it. I reckon its only problem (which is the mold's problem) is its a tad small but otehrwise its very easy on the eyes

Nice work! Love seeing people's custom works, real talented.

Ok well decided to make another Unicron to show the Alt mode as i didn't want to damage the paint on the first one.
So anyway heres the alt mode, enjoy

There is a storage space for the Storm Troopers that works perfect fot the scene in the movie "And this shall be your ship"

The only thig i should have changed was the Death Star laser thing on the top

Na just the G1 looking Unicron, dont really want to make a 3rd!

But everyone on TFW2005 want to see the planet rings, so will be adding those soon but might take a little brake first as i still have to complete my Revoltech Beachcomber, Lord Chumley, and Classic Runamuck and Runabout :D
So many figures, so little time
