TF: Prime Voyager Skyquake & Dreadwing upgrades (Shapeways)
Update November 17, 2012

Some new toys for 2 poor, dead bots.

This thread will be special as I'll be showing 2 distinct sets. I will first be showcasing pictures of Skyquake's stuff, and then of Dreadwing's so that there is no confusion. Thanks to those who have helped out in this project's development and those who have contributed advice and references.

It took longer than I'd anticipated though!

Enjoy!

Skyquake's Massive Minigun!

The minigun comes with 2 posable handles so that the figure can hold it in as many
different poses as possible. The front barrels spin, but your mileage may vary
depending on how tight the print is. Mine was too tight, as it were.

The rear handle is secured to the weapon by a 3mm diameter pin. If you lose it
you can always use a cyberverse weapon handle as a makeshift solution.

"Yeah, no one really puts it there. How is the pilot supposed to see?"

Assembly.

Dreadwing's Big Blaster!

Dreadwing's weapon works pretty much the same way as his twin's, with 2 movable handles.
Assembly is pretty similar too, down to the pin-secured rear handle.

This set also comes with his sword which attaches to the bottom of the blaster via 3mm c-clip.
It's longer, more detailed and sharper than the stock version, so...

"Seriously, NO ONE."

Assembly.

The green one needs this at:

The blue one needs his at:
Dreadwing's Big Blaster (Shapeways)

Comments and critique much, much welcome!

Nice work.

soooooo damn good. i have so many sets of yours to buy, i think this is the first one to get. the guns are just sooooo good to make an already awesome figure look better!

someone really needs to hire you for these PRIME accessories, I mean Dr Wu has some good stuff but nothing on you.

holy bad ass!

You are the master of shapeway!! The level of thought and details is astounding. You could have just printed it solid, but instead you have moving pieces and joints, and it lips on his back. The level of design is inspiring.

Man, your stuff is amazing! If I get skyquake I need to get that "mini"-gun!

Deadgame1 · 11-17-2012, 10:42 AM

And just when i was thinking of doing customs of these two you go and make it even more enticing! You are an awesome designer

These are beautiful.

Will you be the one to fashion Megatron's Prime arm and sword? I hope someone with your level of expertise tackles this soon.
