    I like your Drift but the reason I'm posting is because I clicked on your Transformers Customs sig and my antivirus threw up the big WARNING ATTACK PAGE! window. Just thought you should know.

    I really like the work done here :) 

    When I was working on my Binal Tech Killswitch custom, Drift had not been made his comic book appearance yet, but we knew it was on the horizon. I originally wanted to avoid making Drift altogether, but have certainly found myself recently weighing the option back and forth.

    I'm certainly not trying to hijack the discussion thread here, but thought I'd interject that if someone wants a "poor man's Drift", the base I used for Killswitch would be a good option.

    Props to you for not going that route, as white isn't fun to deal with often times :thumb

    cool... you customed the head as well.
    i'm not familiar with BT/AT but i saw a close fit for a head swap.
    different yet similar with tf gen drift.
    not sure about the scale though.
    erm... mod, can i hotlink an image from another site?
    ditto, removed the link.
    thanks.

    Looks nice. If I could make a suggestion, maybe add a bit of white to the front of his legs to break up that sea of black.

    No problem, man :thumb 

    xcal, the robot mode looks really cool. I like all of the modifications (hood, head, etc.) you've done :thumb 

    Your work sort of reminds me of the original design for the Binal Tech Viper, Tracks:

    Is there a way to fix the bad feet with this toy? It looks so stupid leaning back the way it has to just to stand up straight because the feet joints are so badly designed.
    Mine is so frustrating in that regard.

    You could try either modifying the existing feet or creating new feet.
