    First Look: Generations Chromedome (New pictures just added)

    Hi all,

    I have a few projects waiting to be finished that just need their final stickers before they get their new galleries (Jazz & Wheeljack). In the meantime, this guy is about finished.

    The base figure is a Universe Sunstreaker, with a modified Action Masters Skyfall head......Found it funny that MyTea Boc and I had the same idea for heads. =)

    Sorry there are not any work in progress pictures. I started on this yesterday as soon as I got the paint and went to town. This was all done yesterday.

    The chest piece on the inside will still be changed from grey to the lighter desert tan brown. Face still needs to be painted and there will be custom decals done for the hood. I got the idea for this from a digibash that was in the botcon exclusive section. I forgot who did it originally. After seeing it, I had to do this.

    Enjoy! =)

    - Gregg

    It looks good but I think you should mabe go with different shades of brown and yellow. Right now those colors remind me of chocolate cake.
    Don't get me wrong, I do like it.

    It's weird. Normally those color make me go "EWE!!!" But they look GREAT! I like it. Looks very clean and I like the red.

    Man, I love that! I'm flattered it was inspired by my Botcon thread. But I think you improved on my digibash, giving it that head, the red roof, and other little detail touches. Really nice work!

    I agree, that it looks great. I'm only wondering where the Headmaster head is, instead of a reg head. (kinda like TFCC Nightbeat. Where's the headmaster?)

    Thanks for all the remarks everyone. I've been having a blast making this. I am wrapping up the final paint apps tonight. Then I just need to design the final decals for it and all will be complete! =)

    I'm hoping pretty soon, we'll have a certain Alternator to post! Whoops! I spoke too soon! :ev: 

    I am very fascinated with your shift in your customs and your collection. Keep it up, man :thumb 

    BTW, do you have plans for the other Headmasters?
