    Sector 70's 2011 Charity Challenge: OPERATION COMBINATION!

    The idea is that teams, chosen by geographic proximity, coordinate together to create a new gestalt team that can combine into a single robot. You can read more about it by following the link below:

    2011 Charity Project/Contest.

    A few of us Americans have banded together to take on the challenge, basing our bashes on Digilaut's amazing Animated Devastator concept (with his permission, of course).

    Isn't that an awesome piece of art? There's more in his original thread:

    http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/trans...formers-animated-devastator-yes-its-done.html

    Sooo, I myself have chosen to build Rampage (and maybe Dirtboss, if my schedule allows). The dog-bot forms the right leg of the combiner. Check out Digilaut's character sheet for him below:

    Anywho, after pooling the requisite donor figures together, I've gotten underway on the kitbash. Here are some WIP photos that I'd like to share:

    Let me know what you think! And hopefully I don't disgrace Digilaut in posting this. :D
