I just wanted to say hi and tell you about me. I'm what you might call a copycat, meaning if I see an idea that I like, I use it. I steal it and warp it to my own devise. So if you see something of mine that looks like someone else's, I probably stole their idea. I only do this if I love your idea. I will try to give credit were credit is do. I'm new to all for this, by the way. well the transformers customs I mean. I have made things in the past. Stuffed animals, Stikfas, paintings, and drawings. Any help or comments are welcomed. I will ask for help on ideas, like: What should I name this (I'm not good at naming things), what color should I paint this (I get a little indecisive at times) or things like: would this look better with 2 machine gun arms, 2 grappling claw arms, or 1 of each.
How do, lad - welcome aboard! And as Redline said, we're all guilty of nicking ideas. Part of the fun of customising is seeing how different people take the same idea and add their own personal flair to it (we're starting to see quite a few large-scale Devastators now, for instance, but no two are the same). As long as you try to give credit for your inspiration and ideas (which you've already said you aim to), then there's not really anything to apologise for, pre-emptively or otherwise! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with - and indeed, what you've already come up with. Stikfas, you say? Tell us more...

Welcome aboard, cyberslam. First off you're not a copycat hell we all are, secondly hope to see what you made either be Transformers based or not, and finally just enjoy yourself.
Emulation is one of the most sincere forms of admiration. You wouldn't copy it if you didn't like it.
