TR Horri-Bull, Fangry and Squeezeplay WIP thread

[DarkHyren]

I believe Crashbash is supposed to be Squeezeplay - can anyone confirm this?

I can confirm, he was renamed to Crashbash for copyright reasons but it's the same character.
Looking forward to how these go, it's interesting to see what people can come up with for the heads that have been released without bodies

Did a decent amount of work on Horri-Bull this weekend.

Firstly, I finished off the head build, some trimming, shaving and filing here and there.



Gave it a primer coat before painting, which showed up a few flaws that I will now need to correct before laying down the first coats of colour.



But overall, pretty happy with the way it's coming out. Managed to ditch the crocodile/alligator look quite well I think.

I also wanted to try and fabricate some new shoulder pieces, especially the ball joints so I can eliminate paint rub. I used my new-found casting abilities, as well as some resin pigments I picked up, so now I can cast in colour. I was aiming for blue, but I didn't put enough pigment in the first one, so it came out light blue. The second and third cast came out great, just perfect.



All I need to do now is drill a hole in the pieces and they are ready for assembly - no paint required!

I also did some mods to Twinferno's gun, which will be the double barrelled gun/tail for Horri-Bull, which involved filing down the twin handles and casting a new peg/handel for the centre. I cut a corresponding grove into Horri-Bull's robot legs/bull hind quarters to slot the gun in there, like the G1 toy.

Lastly, I also filled in the toes/claws on the rear legs, to better match the G1 model.

Then, the rest of the pieces were primed.


Should be ready to start laying down some colour in the next week or so.
