    Default My New Customs WIP

    Ok well first up is my Darth Vader / Death Star that I am turning into Unicron. After seeing what dat70sdude on these boards had done here I decided that I wanted to give it a go



    So far I have disassembled him and filled in his waist and added the spikes on his arms and shoulders, I have started priming some of the parts but am waiting on some armada unicron parts to arrive



    Secondly I have two Ramjets that im turning into Dirge and Thrust. Dirge is just a simple repaint where as thrust had to have original G1 wings and tail fins. Once these are done I will have all 6 seekers (ive already made a thundercracker will post pics later)





    Now I know people will say why not just buy the henkei ones? Well because they don’t look as good as the botcon ones and these one I will make will look more G1 correct

    Anyway will post more pics when Ive done more work on any of them

    They all look great, especially Thrust. Will his wings still flip up once you're done?

    Thrust looks great!

    Well if you have a normal classic / Universe ramjet we can swap as i havent done anything to the other one yet... But he will soon become Dirge

    Thanks for the offer mate..but i'll keep my classics ramjet and try to pick up a henkei ramjet elsewhere...

    Btw, i'm interested to know how you are planning on making dirge? surely its more involved than just a straight repaint right? as dirge has extra small wing pieces at the top...
    Will you use styrene sheets or off-cuts etc?
