I really like the bulkiness of this version, only throwback is his legs look short. But from the waist up, anyway, it's the best I've seen.
Looks really amazing but I can't stop myself thinking that the cars on the arms are not that well merged into Menasor, they look like a little too "added" on the real arms in my taste, Menasor wouldn't look like he's missing something even if these two were removed. But I totally understand that's an artistic choice and it would probably have been hard to make something that bulky without having this problem. Still would love to own something that amazing though.
My WIP has the same type of arms. Having the cars as upper-arms will simply results in very skinny upperarms and would look stupid with the Primus fore-arms.
Not nececerally...... different molds need to be explored. I understand the dragstrip issue, but there may be ways to better incorporate the cars into the arms. Also, artistic freedom is not a bad thing! Switch up them molds. That being said. This is the best Menasor to date. The extra bulk up top make him look befitting of his name. Menacing. Way to set the bar even higher!
Amazing!!! Love it!! Please could you post some backshots please!, nice combiner!! PD: my first post here!
thanks a lot guys thanks man. the horns were a last minute decision, and i love the way they came out. i've been using round cones for his horns, and after looking at so many pictures of menasor, i thought i would change it up a bit on this custom. i'm really glad u like him man, thanks for the comment.
thanks man. means a lot coming from you. i'm a big fan i def. see what you're saying. i'll def. improve on that area. thanks for the comment man, thanks for the constructive critisism man. yea i def. see what you're saying. i'm looking forward to making a menasor without the primus forearms and the shoulder kibble. This was a commission, so I was limited on the design. Thanks again man, Thanks Z. I'm really proud of this piece. I feel my paint apps have stepped up a bunch on my last few customs, this one in particular. I'm ready to see your paint apps on one particular massive custom thanks guys. i'll try and take some pictures from behind, along with menasor with his weapons. hopefully tomorrow.
I'd have to agree with you that your paint apps have become more polished, and it shines through with this piece. Excellent paint work, man. I've never been big on Cyb Prime as Motormaster, but he fits the bill. The proportions are very "bully-esque", he is truly Menacing. Definitely in my top 5 fave Menasors.
Wow..this is fricking sweet! Good job! Can it transform into individual bots, or loose cars? I'm assuming it can't, that would probably make it insanely complicated, but if it can, that will seriously destroy my brain. Maybe the cars don't lookt integrated enough into his shoulders, but as far as I remember, this was exactly the case with G1 Menasor..it's not hurting the figure, in my opinion. I'm so in love with this figure!
