The how to's helped me out big time as well. Thanks again ptitvite, satomiblood , ALPHAMAGNUS, and frenzy rumble for the great ideas for my Dev. I'm still waiting to find a cement mixer to finish mixmaster and I think I'm going to put the unicron head on a ball joint. ***Update 8/23*** The cement truck came so I attached it and I also changed the way hook and longhaul combine providing a much stable connection. The heads from Sculptbot came today so all I need is for the ball joints to come then he will be off to the painters. ***Update 8/24*** Today, I gave him a shoulder mount canon from Unicron's chest - I need to change it a little bit more to get it where I want it. Also, I made him 2 identical pistols that can mount to his hips. One is mounted and the other is in his left hand. ***Update 9/25*** Painted him up but ran out of green paint...waiting for more to come in so that I can do touch ups. All in all I learned a lot from this combiner. Thanks again to all the other inspirations out there...you know who you are! ***Update 10/06*** I think he's as complete as I need him to be. Had a wonderful time doing this guy and i'm off to the next project...DEFENSOR! |

I saw a Boxing commercial and it said "It's a fight to the finish" Thats a good place to end.

I too agree that the head needs to be smaller other than that it'll look great. So great job. ![]() My Feedback: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/junkio...light=Ezilla82 |
