    Finished these two up the other day. After doing Krunix, I never want to work on a figure that small ever again. It just annoyed the hell out of me, especially since I'm terrible with removing pins. For a little bio in the Shattered-verse, I'd say that Cyclonus was trained by Galvatron, who would take over the Kup role for the 'Cons, and later joined up with Megatron's unit. He would eventually partner with Krunix after the rest of the team started calling Krunix "Cyclonus 2" because of his admiration for Cyc

    This will also be my first gallery submission either over the weekend or next week and there will be a lot more pictures included once I do that. I know there's a limit for attached pics, so I picked some which I thought were the best to showcase the work

    and i can't take credit for naming him krunix. over at the allspark, there was a thread about repurposed shattered-verse toys, so i took a shot of my decepticons with these two in it. someone said that's what i should name him. once i wiki'd him, i decided that was a much better name than hot shot or big boom, both of which i was considering. others have also said name him armada, but i liked krunix better. if i was gonna make armada, i would've made it a flyer instead of a gun

    Great job, ssg4life.
    Those colors really are a great combo. I wish o'Cyclonus could have more of a smile. That way he could look more Autobot-ish. Other then that, big props on him. Good back story.
    Also, love that pic with him pointing his targetmaster.

    I like how you use Hot Rod's colors to make Cyclonus from the Shatterverse seem cool and Krunix, I like that name very cool. Other than that great job.

    i actually think the thickness of the silver on his face helped to wipe away the smirk he had

    I realy like the looks of this guy, the only thing I would do differntly would be to make the wings almost completly yellow. them in bot mode it would look like rodimus's spoiler. (SG cyclonus is meant to look like rodimus aint he???)

    no, it's armada demolisher as shattered-verse demolisher. in the latest story "do over", he's there as a decepticon

    Looks good!

    Yellow seems to be the more common color, though Classics/Henkei Rodimus and Titanium Rodimus have orange spoilers. The comic seems to go with the classic colors, with the horns and wings being yellow. I don't see it as a big deal, though; he's only shown in two panels and you barely see anything beyond his head and upper chest. Kind leaves room to just interpret the color scheme how you want

    that's exactly what i did. i tried to map out what i thought the colors would be and not have them look hideous. i was wrong initially because i wanted silver for the pieces connecting the arms to the torso, but orange looked so much better once i painted it
