    This is a WiP At the moment (just gotta paint him up, but the build is done).

    Sea-smoke is the Autobot's prankster. He has adopted the alternate vehicular mode of a submersible with a "sea serpent" atop to fool humans into thinking he's a sea or lake monster. One of his favorite haunts is the famed Loch Ness. There, he revels and delights at watching the humans mistake him as Nessie.

    Enjoy:

    Your imagination has still not reached it's bounds. I believe it's endless at this point.

    Too cool man. The beast head peaking around the main bot reminds me of Johnny Knoxville's character from the second Men In Black. Eagerly looking forward to the final product, you mad genius you!

    It's very rare that a custom makes me stop and go "What the hell?" with a mix of awe and confusion.

    This is one such case and I love it.

    He reminds me of BW Quickstrike, with the little tail-head buddy.

    I used a TR Highbrow mixed with TR Scourge parts, some cutting with that. I then used a ball jointed "leg" from a camera tripod. I attached a TR Doublecross/twinferno head, and modified it into it's current form. I then added a Construct Bots Dinobot Scourge head. Lastly, I added a few parts for details. Hope that helps.

    Thanks! I am glad he gives you so much joy. :) 

    Thanks!

    LOL...Thanks!

    Aces! Thanks bro!

    lol...Thank you bro.

    Wow, thank you :) 

    Thanks!

    Yeah, I love that, too :thumbs2: 
    The figure looks pretty cool and well done. I only think some panel lining or (black) washing would add a lot to it.
    The head is from Construct Bots Scorn?

    lol, Thanks!

    Thanks bro! I might add some more to him, as he was not made to be a highly repainted figure, but a great suggestion for me to do. ATM, I am waiting for a sealer to cure...once it does I can do some more :D
