    I'd suggest making the chest shield longer to cover up some of those long Optimus legs. right now it looks a little like his legs go all the way up to his chest, a bigger chest shield should at least give the illusion that he has more of a body to him.

    Found a new glue that's even
    better than testor's plastic cement:
    The original super glue!

    Onslaught UPDATE!

    I just recently added some
    new things to Onslaught!

    As you can see, I added his visor.

    [​IMG]

    But what you might have not noticed
    is that I added the FOC markings on him as well!

    [​IMG]

    Group shots!

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    And now, onto the main event!
    The back cannons! It looks a
    little weird now, but once it's painted
    it will look stunning! Also, it makes him a little
    back heavy; so I'll need to work on that.
    Anyway, ONTO THE PICS!

    Here's Onslaught with his cannons:

    [​IMG]

    On his back:

    [​IMG]

    and in alt mode. (note, this is before I modded the cannons):

    [​IMG]

    Here's his cannons properly attached:

    [​IMG]

    The cannons are highly articulate with two ball joints
    and can rotate 360 degrees and have a 90 degree tilt upwards!

    [​IMG]

    I can't resist, one more group shot:

    [​IMG]

    ENJOY!

    Really smart use of markers for the cannons.

    All I can say is this, TFmaster reawakened the kid in me and got me back in the fandom, thirdparties and the various classics lines got me back into collecting, and artist like you remind me why I do it and make it all worthwhile.

    Onslaught update!

    I wanted to show this for a while,
    Do these numbers sound familiar to
    anyone?

    This is just to pay tribute
    to my number one follower.
    You rock man!

    Also, what I did for the bottom connectors:
    As you can see, I cut out a small section of the foot area.

    [​IMG]

    I had to carefully measure where I put the wheels
    so they could fit in robot mode and to be completely
    safe for vehicle mode. This literally took me months
    to fully plan out.

    [​IMG]

    as you can see...

    [​IMG]

    ...They fit perfectly in Robot mode!

    [​IMG]

    ENJOY!

    I made some heel spurs for Onslaught
    so that he could stay upright when he
    has his back cannons on.

    I went over and touched up the combaticons
    where their paint was wearing off. I really need
    to re-clearcoat everyone.

    I like this project, and your work, its really creative. That said this is a shared board, people don't get front page with their work for very long, and for some of them this is part of their livelihood and how they self promote. From one artist to another I wouldn't update without pictures, or as frequently. Its hogging the feed. I saw this thread with all its hundreds of posts and most of those are yours. I see it get bumped up, and its just you again with a pictureless progress update. If you want to do that why not start a blog or a fanpage on facebook? Then you can grow an actual fanbase and get yourself exposed. That said, I can't wait to see this finished.

    You're right, and I'm sorry...

    I promise it will be a pictorial update!

    Multi-update!

    Hello again! Today's update
    isn't anything major, just
    touch ups and add on bits.

    In case you wanted to know just
    how big Onslaught is, Here he is
    with a fellow combiner group leader:
    (in case you were wondering, I will work on
    him, but after I finish the combaticons.)
    [​IMG]

    And here he is with the Optimus prime Motormaster
    was packaged with:

    [​IMG]

    As for the touch ups:

    Blast off has his gold re-brushed on.

    [​IMG]

    Swindle has some worn down areas re-brushed and
    his face had been repainted with a proper silver.
    Sorry for the blurry pictures...

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    And Vortex had his silver re-brushed.

    [​IMG]

    For the heel spurs, They're made so Onslaught
    doesn't tip over when he has his back cannons.
    also, they required no modding to fit.

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    Also, Profile pictures of each of the Combaticons (so far)!
    (Sorry for the rubber band on Onslaught, that was used to
    keep his back cannons on.)

    Like what you've done here.The conneter ports have been giving me the hardest trouble with mine and i love what you done.Can those connecters support the weight of the arm? Cyber. Prime makes a nice Onslaught and i just happen to have one in the junker box. Keep up the nice work,can't wait to see it finished.
