    Yes I LIVE!

    Its been almosta month since my last post here but I've been so busy with my job I've had no time for customizing. A 6hr project took me 2 weeks to complete but I'm happy with the way he came out.

    Overkill was a TFA Activators Grimlock. He was a simple repaint that I based off of the G1 color scheme. After getting the figure "done" he looked to bland so I then decided to add my personnal touch and add some blacks and silvers.

    I used Zoids parts for the shoulder armor/ side guns and added a center horn for his dino mode.

    Hopefully I'll return after the Superbowl in full force but until then have a merry christmas everyone!

    Very cool, I was wondering when we'd see some more customs coming from you.

    The blue I used on him was a custom mix of Citadel Ultramarine Blue and Vallejo Transparent Blue. It was brushed over a flat Chaos Black base coat.
