    After the Jaguar Ravage came out, I tossed the Corvette version is a box til I decided what to do with it. Then, recently, I saw Reprolabels' Razorclaw conversion set, I liked it, but wanted more. And that's where this version of Razorclaw came from!

    Ravage's windowed chest was removed, then a cavity cut into the remaining chest. The orginal cat face was cut from the head and, along with the jaw, glued into the cavity (just barely with enough ground clearence in vehicle mode!). Styrene was used to create the mane around the head. Razorclaw's new head is slightly modified Grimlock head with a new ball joint. The sword was scratchbuilt from more styrene and stores on a peg underneath the car.

    The paint is Kyrlon Fusion yellow, Tamiya Orange, and Testors gold. The car stripes are vinyl trim tape. Also, the gun has been chromed with Gunze Sangyo's amazing Chrome Gundam Marker.

    Thanks for looking

    Great job man! Looks super clean. I like how you used Ravages head for the chest piece, which came out beautifully I might add.
