This is an idea I've been toying with (pardon the pun) for a while, ever since hearing Jackshot/Overhaul was going to be called Trailbreaker (thus, making "Leobreaker" make sense as a name) in Cybertron. Click on the thumb for the full pic, as usual:

Vehicle mode:


Robot mode:


Didn't take me too long, since his colouring isn't that complicated in the first place, but I think the result is pretty nice. Comments, criticisms?

Edit>> Ah crap, wrong forum, sorry. Meant to post it in Kitbash  

 

dang, that's nice!  

 

Looks great! I might even buy it with those colors.

 

Man, in alt mode, those colors simply blow AWAY Overhaul's real colors!! I hate how he has ORANGE windows and a SILVER screw in the middle, really cheapens the look in my oppinion... great job!!

Really nice, but is this the right thread for that?

 

Hasbro/Takara should have done this in the first place.  

 

Nope... I closed the wrong tab by accident and ended up posting in Toyark rather than kitbash. Thanks for moving it, whichever mod it was  

Also, thanks for the positive comments guys.

 

great digibash as always demaar.

quick request. while we're on the subject of overhaul, could you do a digibash where his head's all silver/gray like brawn?

and/or make a Jazz out of crosswise.  

 

you should try n find lik a rocket/missle launcher to put on his shoulder  

 

I only need 1 smilie:  

 

Thanks for the compliments  
Not exactly sure what you mean by your first request. Do you mean leave his green alone and make his head grey?
As for making a Jazz out of Crosswise (that's the English name for Autovolt, right?), I've been thinking about that for a while too. Damn shame Hasbro don't have the trademark, would have been a perfect fit for that mould.

 

yup, everything else the same [green/orange] and head silver/gray for a brawn look.

and yeah, i always thought autovolt/crosswise would look great as Jazz... the altmode's great for it [especially with the Porsche-ish spoiler!], and the robot mode's not too far off either.

 

Looks awesome!!!

 

The colors are very nice, wish I had time and patience to do that!

 

well leohaul would sound kind of stupid! nice one demaar very well executed

 

oh, and demaar... howsabout a Cyb Red ALert as Hoist?   i've always thought he'd be the prime candidate for a Trailbreaker or Hoist thanks to the general robot/altmode shape and the multitool-instead-of-a-left hand thing.

 

Hmmm, that's actually a pretty darn good idea. I'll give it a shot next time I'm doing a couple..

 

way nice

id buy that

 

I was actually thinking of doing my GF First Aid as trailbreaker. I had the idea that they should make A. Red Alert Trailbreaker for Universe. The only thing is his windows are red, so I would have to paint over them to make them blue like trailbreakers.

 

autovold would make a good jazz, he even has the transparent visor. i've been looking at all my gf toys and its quite possible to see how they were pretty much all inspired by g1 characters. live convoys head mold bears a resemblance to ultra magnus for example. there are others, but i cant think of any unless im sitting in front of them. oh wait nitro convoy looks a lot like g1 jetfire in robot mode. the original jetfire that is.
