NEW PICTURES: Smorgasbord of custom G1 Robot Heroes
The good the bad and the ugly
The Good
Attachment 1789
Wheeljack made from Sunstreaker (with a modified head) and Bumblebee arms. His 'wings' are a Jazz car door cut in half and his gun is what remains of a Thundercracker cannon.
While painting it I realised the factory-applied Autobot symbol is off-centre.
The Bad
Attachment 1787
Emirate Xaaron made from an Ironhide body (with a modified chest), Blaster arms and Megatron head.
I haven't painted his crown detail yet. This one isn't doing anything for me. The body's too thick, it's too hunched over, the gold is too streaky, nyarrrr :mad:
Altho, previewing this post, it doesn't look too bad in the pic. :confused:
The Ugly

Hey, I got bored. :D
Ravage: eject. Operation: customisation

While the Robot Heroes G1 Ravage is a nice figure, it's just too damn cute. All the other figures are running, flying, pointing, waving guns... and there's Ravage sitting in the corner with his tail up and a big grin.
No more!
I put G1 Ravage's head, tail and missiles on a ROTF Ravage (after carving the spikes off it).
It's a much more dynamic pose and I'm pretty pleased with it.
I have thought of doing a paw-swap, but I think that'd be too fiddly.
