    The headsculpt is gorgeous. Between that and the hand choices, she's so expressive (which is very fitting for her). Love the paintwork too. Great job!!

    That's a banging Nautica.

    Love the wrench and facepalm.

    Beautiful work! Still in awe of the fact that you hand-made that head! The choice of using a Vehicon as a base was great, due to the slim, lithe proportions.

    Thanks!!! I’m happy with how she turned out and now I'm planning on upgrading her with some better wings/turbines to get her more comic accurate. Just need to get the right parts :D

    Looks fantastic! Your original was a huge favorite of mine and inspired me to make my own Nautica figure. The upgraded one looks great! Really liking it!

    I'm glad it inspired you!

    Thanks everyone for the kind words! Now I just need to get her a visor. :D 

    *sigh* I'll have to change my sig. I thought it was cool that the first two lady TFs we got in MTMTE were both mechanics but there's only the 1 sonic wrench. I'll come up with something better.

    have you ever thought about using a jet vehicon for this custom? no wheels and it already has backwings that could be swapped out for some turbine action.

    I did, but it's too pricey for me. I like how the regular old car vehicon worked out though :)
