That Prime is most impressive. The only way it could be any better is if it actually transformed.

Outback- do you do any 3D printing??

Prye- I agree. I'm really glad I don't get that itch. =)

Got this far and ran out of styrene. =(

Megatron is seen with my long lost Derrek Wildstar custom- I did that one some two years ago and he finally turned up. That made my night.

Headless is the only way I can stand Starscream.

That Megatron is superior to the larger on you made I think, it's much more concise looking.

I've got 4 more Unicrons left. =)
And with this one I was able to redo things I wanted to change with the larger version. I do like the larger head better though.

The stovetop legs add a truly neat and unique direction to what started as a traditional G1 based custom. Congrats on having the hudspah to go for such a drastic style!

Seriously, these customs blow me away. And the fact you keep throwing them together like its nothing is astonishing. I'm not even a huge Transformers fan but I keep coming back to follow your progress.

Really liking the new 1/18 scale Optimus and Megatron even more than the first versions.
Can definitely tell that you're refining your technique.

Thanks, guys. I think a lot of it has to do with the sanding and not rushing it sooner.

in other news I found a sculptor willing to make me some TFer heads. Can't wait to get that going.

So very cool.

If the MP series had been at this scale, i'd be bankrupt.
