    Good Morning Radicons. heres a Megatron Project ive had on the WIP shelf. he is made from an energon Landmine figure, and Classics Megs head. most of the time when im done with a project i have a friend do the painting, well this time i decided to try it myself to improve my painting skills. His cannon is from animated swindle until i get the new one built. i missed some spots but at least im trying to improve my skills.

    As always C and C welcome, this idea was inspired by ihandlott's heavy armor nemesis prime.

    Perhaps, simply because he wanted to...
    Whatever your reasons I think it's creative. The mold definitely has the destructive look that Megs would assimilate. This is definitely the place for c and c so please share and don't be discouraged if people aren't overly impressed. Looking forward to seeing how your first attempt at painting comes out!

    The silver looks VERY nice! I think you need to paint the head the same color too though, it looks out of place. Also, he could do with some other color, maybe some black with bits of red, as it is he looks like one of those takara lucky draw figures. But yes, that is a beautiful silver.

    I think it's a great mold choice, that's a great toy and it's not an immediate fit for any "G1" guys. but it's sort of a Cybertronic Tank'ish thing, which is perfect for Meggs :)

    Wow, that's a really nice silver and I agree, once you add in the red and black, I think he'll look great. One question though, is he still compatible with Landmine's trailer/armor?

    Deffinately has potential and the paint's looking good. Only thin I see is the head looks just a tad small. Other than that, cool concept. Still transform?
