Hey everyone, heres another figure from my vault of unfinished WIPS. Ive finally decided to paint this guy up (not greatly obviously), but representing the character Skyblast, from the Energon series.

Heres the Wip thread for the figure from a year or so ago:
http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/233466-another-wip-cloudburn-tftm-overcast-redo.html

He's painted mostly with krylon colours for bases, and with a few enamels. Its my first time brushing on paints. C & C welcomed. I also made a small stand for the figure using some styrene a post and a pen, lol.
Thanks.

 

Amazing. I love the manipulation of that dreadwing figure. How did you go about moving those arms and legs around?

 

Woah, wait a sec, is that Dreadwing?!?! With decently proportioned arms and legs???

That looks outstanding, tutorial naow please  

 

I see Deluxe Prime's arms. The legs look familiar. What did you use?

 

Thanks, its all in my original thread that I posted the link for. But just in case I didn't mention :s..the upper legs are from a classics prowl figure, i made the lower portions from acrylic sheets that I had been using at the time. The arms are from the classics two pack prime, along with the ball joints for the shoulders.

 

That look awesome family! i like it better than the overcast one. the paint is simple colors but it fits him well, great work, so all you did was a head change to overcast or more? i like your idea, overcast mold is great to work with.

 

wow, nice paintjob and modifications. It reminds me alot of Gobot Leader-1 actually.

 

you just took a piece of crap and turned it into a piece of gold. Well done sir well done. Im a big fan

 

that,is,nice... you turned a monstrosity to a work or freaking art there,i salute you!
if only someone can turn pegload into something of plain awesome.

 

Awesome job, I love energon tf's so this one has my favor.

 

Finally, an amazing flanker TF!

 

Honestly, I was expecting crap, but this is amazing! I LOVE the feet, and
you did a good job shaving size off the bottom of the jet mode  

 

umm...thanks..lol

 

That's slick, man
I could totally see this working as a Leader-1 as well.

 

Wow..........Wow     That is just wild. Great use for a somewhat obscure character. It's just amazing how you made those parts work. Are you planning on putting it on ebay? I think you'd make a lot of money.    

 

dude that turn a crappy mold amazing, good job

 

Turning crap into gold... I believe that's known as "alchemy". 

AWESOME figure. Great work!

 

Pretty darn fantastic use of a bad mold!  

 

nice!

 

Wow! I was trying to figure out what the original mold was, and I just could not guess what it was. This is one of those bashes that's so well done that it doesn't look like it's a bash at all! Fantastic!
