The "Abstract" TF-line presses-on with the 4th and newest member in the series, G1 Grimlock! Worked on this one a little bit to break the monotony between the big stuff (Titan & Frenzy) and stay productive. This dino-leader will stand at about 13-inches tall, 12-inches wide & about 19-inches long. Grimmy will be LOADED with articulation, starting with a 3-point pivoting tail, a rotating torso, 2-pivoting joints at the hips, bendable knees, posable claws (front & back on foot), posable shoulders & elbows, fully-posable head on a ball-joint & wide-opening jaws. I even managed to get him to balance on one foot & tail-tip with the other foot in the air for some stomping-action! Stay tuned for updates soon, will be working on the head and arms and a little somethin' extra to compliment his character.
Man how do you find the time to produce this Figure along with your other projects??? What kind of energon do you smoke kingbotz
I just work long hours....wake up early & go to bed late until I reach a "checkpoint" that I'm happy with & call it quits. I had to take a break from the Frenzy & Titan-project to keep from burning out. This took my mind off of them, but I'm still able to stay busy & productive with something else and stay in the groove at the same time. It's easy to get in a productive-rut and not do Anything, so I just keep busy with something else and stay hot. Yep, Grimlock is a far-different breed of pieces than the others I did, he's much bigger & a little more mind-bending to engineer! He's comin' along beautifully though, I couldn't be happier with the outcome so far... Thanks PK! I came really close to churning out a Soundwave for somebody not too long ago, I'm just waiting on him to get started. Will be a lot of fun building a little minion for him on the side as well. Gotta do all the core G1 characters eventually! Glad you like Head is done.....so here's a teaser-pic, hope y'all like! Lemme know what you think! ....And yes, the jaws open NICE & W-I-D-E
Thanks James! Wait'll you see the articulation I was able to pull off on this bad-boy. Glad you like! The jaws open nice & wide too, like it should be! Just finished his little stick arms & claws, nearly done! Thanks Z! Now I'm all pumped to build the rest of the Dinobots, Swoop in particular. Gotta control myself though and finish Frenzy & Titan first.
Awesome. You're gonna make all the Dinobots?! This is gonna be insane......looking forward to it (Sludge mainly!)
Would LOVE to tackle the rest of the Dinobots. ALL of them would be fun to do as a matter of fact, but since time is so short and I'm currently swamped, I can't take on anymore projects for a couple of months.....at least until I make some more significant headway on the current Titan & Frenzy commissions. I had to tinker with Grimlock in my spare time to break the monotony a little bit and stay productive, but I'm nearly done with him. Grimlock wasn't a commission, I just did it for fun til I find a buyer for him so....unless the other Dinobots are commissioned, the rest won't be done for a while.
Been tinkerin' with Grimmy here and there in between the new Titan-project and Frenzy, he's almost done! Grimmy is indeed the King! I do my best, thanks! Almost done for the exception of the final paint-job and YouTube video, it's gonna be fun! I also managed to slap together a little makeshift abstract/minimal Wheelie to ride on 'eem.
Nope, but he's finished! Just gotta disassemble & prime & paint & he's all done. Might have him wrapped up in the next week or two....
