    Default Custom:classics Nightbeat

    Still a work in progress, but I have the alt mode complete.
    I'm using a Blurr body with some reprolabel G1 Nightbeat stickers.
    By a lucky chance the blue paint I got was an exact match for Blurr's blue, so painting was a cinch (so far, anyway).
    Robot mode transformation is going to be a bit different.....

    nice touch with the G1 stickers. The alt mode looks great, can't wait to see his robot mode.

    Just had time to take this quick snap this morning with the old camera. Better pics will come this weekend after work and Dead Space 2.



    I've added a few G1 Nightbeat stickers to the bot mode.

    Now the technical bit. As you can probably see it's just Blurr turned backwards. I swapped his hands and dremelled out his elbow joints so his arms can bend forward.

    I also swapped his thighs and dremelled off what were Blurr's feet.

    The head is from as G1 Topspin. I couldn't find anything for use as a Headmaster. I am thnking of making him a Targetmaster with a spare Nightstick... after all, his Headmaster's name is Muzzle which is fitting for a gun.

    That's really good. I like the use of the Drift mold for this character.

    Thanks for the replies everyone.
    Here's some nicer photos, including one showing what I did to Blurr's feet

    Nice custom! The colour scheme really works on this.
