    Hey everyone. This was inspired by that picture that's been around forever. Sorry don't know the artist. I have taken my own creative turn on it. And I am pretty happy with it. I know it's not really Tigatrons greenish color. Overall I am happy. Let me know what you think. 20200803_154427.jpg 20200803_154342.jpg 20200803_154640.jpg

    I love it! The vehicle mode is really good, it's a really solid ground vehicle that I could totally see Tigatron becoming.

    When you get a chance snap a pic with the wheels on in beast mode, I'd love to see how that mode looks with them on. I assume they cover up the cats elbow/knee joint on the outside or fold against the chest.

    Thanks. Ya ATV is kinda how i felt. Especially cause he flys as well.

    Thank you, i imagined the ATV as a snow vehicle option where the thrusters help melt heavy snow/ice.

    Totally agree posting W.i.p. pic where it shows.

    Thanks

    Im usually that guy too lol.

    Will do.

    Thank you

    Now this is more like it, honestly it is a good use of the mold, just that partsforming wasnt necesary on a transmetal, and i dont think the wheels look that much out of place, rattrap, megatron they had their vehicle details always visible, just folded away or something, so it just fits wih the transmetal aesthetic, now about the color it feels like it needs another color accent, maybe green details, or something, just to break the tiger with blue carapcace look

    And you must be the one that defends parts forming, there is always one as well

    Badass! Though of course now that's got my mind to wondering what a Transmetal Airrazor would have looked like? Presumably some sort of jet vehicle mode?

    I forgot that existed :p , though I'm not really a fan of that design. Can't really explain it but something just feels 'off'

    Edit: I think in part it's because in robot mode she looks like a Thundercats reject :lol
