Created by my local Arizona Transformers group, the character originally was conceived for a legion-class custom project where I made 10 legion sized Copperheads. You can read about that original project here. While still kind of bound by the color scheme of the original custom, I tried to make this guy as detailed as possible. I wanted to see how he would fare being detailed, but still feel "factory-ish". I thought maybe the extra detail could be afforded by a BotCon release. I also didn't want him to stand out against regular releases. To that end, the only complaint I have is that I wish the medium brown and metallic earth red had more contrast against each other. Unlike the legion project, I did not keep track of the production process. I will say I learned to not worry about removing pins when you don't need to. Instead I've decided it's just easier to paint around them. I broke a joint or two trying to take this guy apart, and he didn't fare any better than the other BB custom where I skipped pin removal. Even with a pin punch, I still would recommend lots and lots of masking instead. You can see him in some of the pictures below standing against his rival, Barricade. Enjoy the pics.
