    Can't wait to see bot modes.

    Although my one immediate bit of crit here (and it's pretty common among Sunstorm customs) is that I don't think the colors are bright enough. It could easily be just the camera, but I think of the rainmakers as being just blindingly bright, almost neon.

    well, they were in the cartoon, but Sunstorm isn't a neon yellow rainmaker. :p  his only commonality with them is they're generic seekers on Cybertron. Sunstorm is a bright color, though. The ehobby introduction of him as a real toy is commonly referred to as "creme-sicle orange" because it's such a bright orange. The recent Animated release of Sunstorm is pretty much the exact same color.

    Updated with some Sunny new pictures.

    Thanks for all the encouraging C&C.
    Also, from what I understand, it's still unsure if the yellow rainmakers is sunstorm, or so I read. I'm leaning to Sunstorm being another character.

    Probably, but i'm gonna take a break from seekers after the blue rainmakers.
    I'm not doing the rainmakers as "bright/neon" as in the show, instead trying to add a little bit of my own taste to them.
