Thanks Stormvapor ! Thanks Sideswipe2000 ! Thanks Cool tables ! Yes those are leader Megatron wings , good eyes dude . Thanks Kalron , Yup there has been quiet a few of them , I believe for the reason you pointed out , Silverbolt makes a great swoop and without to much work too ! Thanks Spyne98 !
Great Start buddy. Thanks for the mention on the Sword I will take a photo of it with the same mold you are using so you can see the scale. Great stuff
I should have some kinda update buy this weekend , I'll at least have on his articulated hands.... I hope That sword is FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC ! Are you casting them to sell or is it the shapeways route ? Thanks for the picture comparison dude !
Your welcome anytime It is in on shapeways at cost price buddy I am casting them for myself but cost wise is not a huge amount less. Give me a shout when you want one and I will see what I can sort out for you.
It's far from perfect but thanks ,I'm just hoping it blends in well enough not too stick out next to MP Grimlock . Parts used are mainly Universe Sliverbolt and wings from a movie 1 leader class Megatron . If you want to see perfect check out Sculptbot's Swoop that I have posted the link too in my original post. Or Dawgstar's is pretty awesome too .
Small update , I've sanding the filler smooth that is covering the screws on the wings . I've also mounted the articulated alternator hands . I found the pieces I'm gonna use to mount the head too....not that you can see then in the picture .
