| Post subject: | Transformers Devastator: From WIP to completion |
This is inspired by the 2005 Botcon version- basically the same thing as what I'm doing. When finished he should be over 5 feet tall. In case you don't know the character . . .  WIP Transformers Devastator pics . . . Here's a very early WIP of my newest endeavor..          The project still has a LONG way to go, but I felt enough was finished, that it was worth sharing. |

This is an AWESOME idea...really inspired. I'll hold off final judgment till you get a little further along...but right now I'm not sold on the need for the PVC pipe Thighs...It just seems like you're adding them in just so you can reach your desired height...and as they are now they're lacking that extra Kibbel I really like on a TF. |

Thanks Chief and Dave. Really appreciate it. Nova, thanks for the imput. Rest assured the PVC will be covered. Not only does it allow desired height, but also it gives the custom articulation. |

This one won't fit in the Joe verse sadly. Or maybe he could .The wire is spline for screen repairs. And thanks for the comments, Jeff.

It's a custom - It's a toy- It's its own freakin' altar of worship! DAMN, that's gonna rock! Someone please bash the first person to ask, "but will it transform, huh?" I just love the potential of this guy to smash Joe and Cobra vehicles alike. You're gonna need to pose a scene where he's got a damsel in distress in one hand, and good ole' Snake Eyes standing on his head trying to take him out : I am curious, how're you gonna build the head? |

"I am curious, how're you gonna build the head?" I'm asking that as well. |
