    Hi all ,this is my latest update of the construction of devastator,which I got inspired by FrenzyRumble n Crefigz.
    I have replaced the primus hand with unicron , which has much more articulation.
    Would like to seek advice n criticism from expertise out there, kindly give comment for the above changes.Thanx.
    Lastly I would like to take this opportunity to thank MoeSizzlac & Ptitvite for providing me precious information in assisting me on this project. Stay tune for more update.:)

    /subscribed!

    Looks like a great start so far! I'm in the process of collecting parts for this project. I, too was interested in using Unicron hands! I'll probably end up PMing you at some point for advice. Good luck with the rest of the build and HAVE FUN with it!

    I removed your name from the thread's title.

    Anyway, on the topic of the actual thread, I think that hand on a Primus arm might be a little too big. If you're dead-set on using the hand, why not use the whole forearm instead of Primus'?

    Hey thanx for your comment.Ya u r right,I have thought of the ratio proportion too,that's y I have modified abit on its wrist structure to make it abit more precise in ratio. Reasons for not using unicron forearm is because I wanted the details of the gun attached which I cant find in unicron .:) 

    thanx for the removal of my name for the title as I'm new to this posting.
    I will be aware of that in future .:)

    not a problem. vBulletin posts a thread author's username directly below the title of their thread in the forum listing, so typing your name in the title itself isn't necessary at all.

    Keep moving forward. I like that you are using Unicron's hands with Primus' forearms. If I had to use his hands with Primus' forearms, I would attach unicron's hands using one of these(Big Size Ball Joint Gray) big ball joints. I would also cut primus' forearms back a tad (almost to the flat part inside where the hand sits closed) but leave enough of the forearm to hide the ball joints themselves. You are off to a great start my friend. Keep us posted!

    Yo Moe thanx for your advice definitely a boost to my moral in continuing to do more innovative work.But is there a way to preserve the old hand n add on to the big unicron hand as well, as some might think its not proportion ,so by doing a add on to it, would rather serve as compromise to both .;)
