    Thank ya kindly. :)  I have been ripping my hair out with the arms trying to make them look right. To ease the tension I'm going to work on another part of Bruticus and get back to the arms later.

    I'm trying my best. Thank you and everyone else for following this project. I still have much to do.

    Yep the Combaticons are a tough bunch. They'll get through this. :) 

    One of the arms.

    Here's some more progress on Bruticus. Here's a few pics of the chest plate along with the legs being test fitted. Opinions please.

    Is that unicrons waist and hips?
    Kinda looks like a cross between superion and menasor right now. Interesting

    Yes but they are modified. Superion and Menasor ? Never thought of of that. Cool! I added some more parts to add height to his torso for better proportions. Here are the new pics.

    Thank you bro! :)  I got to take a few comparison shots with my other combiners to show his height. He's pretty tall.

    Thanks dude. :)  This has been a very tough build so far. Almost everything had to be scratch made. Took almost 5 hours just to make the lower legs. The feet and ankles have full ankle movement. Forward and back. And left to right for dynamic poses. More to come soon.

    Bruticus update! I got the back cannons installed. They're completely adjustable with forward and backward movement for added pose ability and articulation which is always a good thing. Next the arms and shoulder joints have been installed. The shoulder joints had to be completely scratch built. I'll post more pics later on today or tomorrow. Stay tuned for more updates.

    Final Bruticus V.2 update for the day. The Beast stands and he stands mother freaking tall! I put Generations Breakdown in for size comparison so you can get a good idea how big this ogre really is! I still have a few more things to add before he goes into the bay for paint work. Thanks to all for following this project I very much appreciate it and your comments as well.

    A friend of mine is going to make his noggin. I don't have to stuff to make one. I'm trying to finish up some other last minute parts and details. I'll probably start priming later on tonight and hopefully paint tomorrow.

    The paint work on Bruticus is officially underway. I'm going for a warrior's weathering. With this project I got a ways to go but I want to show you some of the progress so far. I hope you all like let me know what you think.
