Hi everyone, Quick post of a touch up i did for my custom Prowl from before. Did a blackwash then some metallic highlights on shoulder, thigh, and head. Mashed my classics prowl with a henkei to get a nice matching shade if white with the TR Prowl head. Sides of his shoulder and thighs have a minor gold highlight. Dremeled the shoulders so it sits at a better looking angle. Just touching up my g1 season 1 crew touched up for my mpp voyager Prime Will do Jazz next!
Wow, the head is a MAJOR improvement! Still not a fan of this mold's "giraffe/turtleneck". AMAZING job nonetheless!
Thanks everyone I took a soldering iron and hotpinned off the metal pin joint. Then I drilled a hole wide enough to fit an extra ball joint which is actually a head of a TR headmaster, and attached the head. I used a bit of hot glue to fill the gap in the female joint of the Prowl head, and voila!
Only cuz you’re a robocop Looks just like the Henkei ver. but with white spoiler. Still transforms no problem.
Is that panel by chance available on shapeways by any chance? I’m considering of doing a similar custom to this figure However if its not available there.. Would it be ideal to shave down that panel to make it more flatter? Or is it a bad idea
Hi. Just uploaded the neck plate to Shapeways, along with the deluxe open grip hands that I designed. Here is the link to the neck plate... Classics Prowl Neck Plate by RobotShapeshifter on Shapeways
Nice. Wish there was a way to replace the entire spring-loaded neck assembly so it doesn't stick out so far though. Any pics with the shoulder rockets exposed?
U could shave it down. I did mine a lil bit. If you do put a CW prowl head on, notice his chin stub. You will need to shave the panel a bit so that the head can fit and tilt on a ball joint. Thanks! I was going for subtle I used gold highlights to add to the Japanese Police’s Tokugawa badge look. I attached a pic Never really pictured Prowl with shoulder cannons though since he didnt have them in the cartoon and it helps me distinguish bluestreak and smokescreen IMO.
Ngl I’m actually thinking of shoving a siege prowl head onto this custom, would ya fellas reckon it would work?lmao
