    Lookin good man. After Devy you're gonna want to make another combined Stunticon team, it's like a drug. Once you've done it, you'll wanna keep doing it.

    SuperQuad7, Anti-Venom is right, Iron Core was actually commenting me man but I really appreciate your concern for maintaining a professional forum, that's rare man!

    JBarb, thanks! My Devastator is still a WIP but slowly coming to life. I have thought about Menasor man but I think if I do another Combiner after I finish Dev, it'll be Bruticus!!

    Very sweet custom. Did you use the soldering iron method to remove the wheels? And how did you take the arms apart?

    I didn't remove the wheels man and the arms I tore down completely by popping their pins and removing some screws, it was a pain in the a$$ for sure man! Thanks!

    If you didn't take the wheels off then that makes it even more impressive as the white that can be seen behind the wheels in the pics is perfect.

    Really nice work man.

    Thanks man, I find it impossible to remove those types of pins so I can't remove them. That's why this one was a REAL pain in the A$$

    Have you tried useing a soldering iron? Thats how I remove a lot of the wheels when I do some of my customs. Works very well, just heat up the front side of the pin then paint and put the wheel and pin back on. Very quick and easy.

    thanks for the tip, AP.
    removing pins is really an arse contracting task.

    wicked white paint job. you even took the effort to paint the screws.
    white is one of the toughest color to handle (imho).

    yeah this method is not hard to do: hold soldering iron to pin 20 to 30 seconds then grap pliers and pull pin out, paint then tap pin back into place with a small tip hammer.

    I'm going to do a Dragstrip pretty soon and I'll be doing that. I am also working on a secret Leader OP custom and that'll probably come in handy for that as well!

    Will do the Deadend for sure, but I gotta give the credit for the color apps on this one to Frenzy Rumble. He did it before I did.

    Gotta tell ya, this is money. Almost sent out a commission request for this one, came very close. But, I'm holding out for a Menasor. I'll tell you what, though, this was very tempting. Very nice work.

    There will be a commission in the future. Can't say when, but it will come sooner or later.
