Here is a guy I have been wanting to do ever since I saw Animated Oil-Slick. I knew he would take a lot of bulking up to pass him off as the pop-culture obsessed leader of the Junkions. I added a lot of mass to the arms and legs with styrene and some random parts. I really wanted to go for a pieced together look. I never really understood the fact that the Junkions were supposed to be cobbled together from junk, but they looked rather solid and shiny. I always envisioned them as basic robots that added parts that caught their eye while roaming their planet.
My Wreck-Gar is beaten up rusty, and riveted together from sheet metal discarded on the planet of Junk. He is still a little "thin" for my tastes, but I think the compromises worked out well over-all.
Now just to build a Junkion to ride him!
Enjoy!
p.s. The painting on Sinnertwin is wrapping up tonight, so I should be able to post him tomorrow. Sig pictures are to be no larger than 40KB in file size and should be no larger than 300 pixels in height and 500 pixels wide - 2005 Staff |

Awesome job, totally changed the look of the bot. Still can see Oil Slick in the cycle, but thats ok. awesome Wreck Gar!!  | |

I think this is fantastic!
The mods are cool.
The painting is wonderful.
If I had to make a suggestion it would be to add larger wheels (maybe even to the front forks only. If he's pieces together, they don't need to match.).
Otherwise, home run! | |
