    Default WIP Needs Name

    Some of you may know I've been working on making a TR Brainstorm out of Triggerhappy, my biggest stumbling block was the wings and then finding a suitable adhesive - I did, ABS glue and gorilla superglue.

    For some reason things like loctite, selleys all plastics glue and 5 sec fix would eventually fail and in the meantime I started a thread on the 2005 boards and that became a thing because I still hadn't finished it and I wound up with an arch nemesis...

    Anyway back to the subject at hand: the Triggerhappy I was using was getting banged up becoming the mock up for the Brainstorm but I didn't want to waste a figure, originally I was going to do action master Starscream or pretender Starscream. I bought an extra overboard for the head thinking it was sort of Starscream. Then I considered Hellbat, but the dragon isn't bat like and fandom...

    In the end I used Helblast as a placeholder, I have some sculpting to do to give a bit of a biomechanical feel.

    I'm just after some feedback, those of you still waiting on Brainstorm he's coming.

    Chose Hellwarp as I'm a fan of making characters that are new and that don't already have a toy made for them.

    I thought Hellwarp was a repaint of thrilling 30 Skybyte?

    How about something original like Sturmjäger (German for "storm hunter")?

    I voted Helblast OC. I like seeing original fan-made characters take toy-form

    Okay why?

    I have yet to paint it, if you don't like the what I'm doing or what I've done maybe a more thought out explanation - you know, engage in some actual critical thinking - would be helpful.

    Any tips? No just trolling?

    What about SkySLash?

    The second pick looks like he could use the wings as blades with laser edges to slice in hand to hand combat.
