Human Alliance Hound

hthrun · 02-03-2012, 12:23 PM

I love the movie aesthetic and the fact the toys' vehicle modes are so realistic. The Alternator toys also had very realistic alt modes, so I'd like to alter mine into human alliance toys with movie aesthetics in robot mode.

I'm starting with Hound because 1) I have two of him, 2) I've always liked him, though I never had his toy, and 3) he was in the first movie's PSP game and I was really hoping they'd make a toy of that.

First thing I wanted to do was make Hound able to hold humans. It was really easy for him, I just had to cut away some plastic squares that were keeping the humans' feet in front from going further down. Now they fit, but the steering wheel gets a little squished...

If I wanted to get a second human in the back seat, I'd have to cut up Hound's knees. I'll see how his robot mode goes, but as is he still holds more humans than any other human alliance toy

Really cool so far! I'm looking forward to seeing how you make him more movie styled.

Thanks guys! Yeah, I don't know how this will turn out... The main and most challenging thing I'd like to do is make the jeep front collapse into the gap in robot mode. Then most of the other robot parts should be pretty easy to alter and add detail to...

Maybe you can get a plastic model jeep to swap out the diecast parts with, cut down on the weight and make mods easier

Not bad. I like the concept art for him.

The WWII Jeep concept looks sick, I met the guy who designed it and he showed me a lot of poses, looks incredible!
