my version of a 'inbetween" body for megatron from the idw series. I envisioned him to take this form right when he first quit as a miner and started pursuing the decepticon cause.this explains the "v2' miner body I hope. this is why I also tried to add styling cues from his miner body and his devastation body to the current body in the comics. he's actually a triple changer too now,bot,tank and cannon emplacement. mods= butchered donor classics voyager dropshot, new noggin courtesy of the constructbots megatron/optimus set, modified cyberkey activated cannons, clipped/ground down funny claw toes the original dropshot had, magnetically and post/hole attaching fusion cannon/main turret,upgraded armor/bulking up of the arms,legs and chest, all hollows/cavities filled with hotglue and big/heavy machine screws to lower his center of gravity(he can do some sweet poses now,regardless of all his weaponry), twin launcher pods can mount in three different spots,including a trick he learned from cybertron galaxyforce optimus, styrene armor/details added, butchered foc swindle for armor details and back wheels, base coated in automotive flat black enamel,then drybrushed with Tamiya chrome silver "x-11",then detailed with Tamiya red "x-7" and gold leaf "x-12,finally,all clearcoated in krylon matte clear u/v spray. tank mode bot mode when he gets bored of his fusion cannon.... cannon emplacement teacher vs student... two attached images are from the internet and both are what I based the color scheme/detailing on. the other two are just before final clean,then after priming in black.
thanks for looking and commenting guys,along with the continued support, mucho appreciated its a combination of a torso chunk from a bayverse realgear camcorder,vintage robotix,a 7-11 mini pop can that had candy in it which was then cored out on both ends and a rare earth magnet for mounting in alt modes. the attached image is just before black priming so you can somewhat make out what went where
