    A lil' bit of personal history, Warpath is the only Transformer that I owned as a child. Growing up dirt poor, we barely had enough money for school clothes, better yet robots that turned into stuff. For that reason, I have sentimental streak when it comes to ol' Warpath.

    This is a commission piece for a supremely patient TFW2005 member. Warpath was made from the Generation Darkmount figure with a few modifications. The head and ball joint were removed and replaced with a modded head from a TFTM Longarm figure. The tank barrel came from a KO TFTM Leader Brawl Figure. It carries an embedded magnet to move locations for Alt and Robot mode.

    It's really awesome! Using Darkmount as the basic model is purely creative..
    You have made the details pop out nicely.

    Please keep up your excellent works :)

    This looks really good Earl and I like the personal attachment to it from your
    childhood. You can tell how much this figure meant to you just by looking at the
    great paint job and cartoon accurate face you gave him.:thumbs2:

    I knew someone would do this before long--glad to see it was you, Earl (always a fan of your work, my friend!). This came out great and I think I love Warpath from this new mold, rather than the older molds that most tend to use. He has that short stature, plenty of bulk, and it just plain kicks ass, bro! POW!

    the mark of a great custom is when you see it and think "damn, I need to make one of those".

    Well, damn, I need to make one of those.
