    Well, almost complete. Still addin under the sea bonus.

    But pretty much just weather with washes and such.

    Mods:
    RATCHET JOINT IN DEATH ARM
    NEW RIGHT ARM
    I used fix it to sculpt new plates around the joints
    NEW HANDS ON BALL JOINTS
    DEATH ARM HAS THREE OPTIONS:ARM ONLY, ARM WITH CANNON, CANNON ONLY
    IF YOU WANT, EITHER THE ARM OR CANNON CAN BE STORED ON THE BACK

    AIRBRUSHED BASE COAT WITH HOUSE OF KOLOR ENAMEL GUNMETAL. SHADOW WITH TRANSPARENT BLACK, HIGHLIGHTED WITH ALCALD II CHROME. THEN WASHES AND OTHER THINGS WITH BRUSHES.

    I know the tank is not exact, but I like the grapple hands!!
    Also... why can't we change the name of threads anymore?

    More pics later tonight.. WITH PRIME!!!!!!!


    video review as per requests

    holy shit ecline, thats amazing what you did. How well did the left arm go together??? was there a lot, if any, modding to the molds? Also, what did you use for the right bicep area? And what did you use for those awesome looking fingers?!?!

    Easily one of your very best.

    The painting and mods are fantastic.

    Not a huge fan of the tank mode of Leader Megs. I think I like Voyager Megs alt mode better.

    But I can't even imagine even wanting to display a piece like this in alt mode when the robot mode is so completely win with a heaping bowl of awesome sauce.

    Beautiful.

    Of all the new movie Megs, I like this Megs the best. I am loving the paint job the most. I am not 100% familiar with the orignal mold yet, except one arm is a cannon and the other arm sorta gimpy. And definatly prefer the bot mode to the tank.

    Bad ASS!

    Excellent work all round, digging the new hands. Are the scratches and weathering details you added, or existing mould details you brought out with your paintjob? Either way, very well done, not too OTT and the better for it.

    That sounds so wrong.


    This makes me want to dig my old Spawn figures out of the attic. Those hands are perfect!

    This is great bro! Cool that you changed out both arms too. Are the hand form the spawn machine guys(forgot their actual names.) I was thinking that those would work to beef up the gimp arm.

    Dude you HAVE to do a youtube review of this. The modifications you have made would make the video review much more dynamic.

    Please man. I would love to see that in action. You do have to explain how you modified it, but if you could just give it a youtube review, going through transformation and flexibility-- that would make my weekend.

    About this youtube video... I will do that Sunday night. I can show what I did and how I did it.
