Surprised I couldnt find anyone who has done this. Didn't like the Character till IDW did their spotlight issue on him. Nothing but respect for the underdog survivalist I am a noob when it comes to painting stuff but doing a quick and dirty job on such a character was easy. Sloshed some dull silver/grey for the arm and, some splashes of muddy brown, now we have a survivor. Energon converter made from Ionx core thing with some cyberverse weapon stuck to it and a piece of wax necklace Thing can be dragged along and wheelie can Still can transform but it is painful Still one of my favorite IDW stories. Inspires me through the darkest hours.
I was just thinking about this story yesterday. Amazing job! Love the detail and the converter, a great tribute to a great character spotlight!
Wheelie was one of the few post movie figures I got as a kid, and I hated him. I felt the IDW spotlight redeemed him as a character, as well as explained his distinct way of speaking. Good job with the left arm. with practice, the weathering really makes a character pop, and can be a lot of fun.
That "digested" arm, man totally perfect. This is just such a great custom paintjob and "trailer" bit. Awesome work!
Lol at your ruined heroic childhood. Thanks. This was a simple job with gundam markers, I try to keep it simple but might learn tricks along the way.
