But I will not have bot mode pics or Hot Spot alt-mode pics due to possible issues with paint
Judging by your sig.. I can't blame you So an Autobot revision of Barricade will be born BTW: this is my first attempt on customizing a paintjob on a small scale but I already made several light mods 10/15years ago on aircraft and heli's So I thought, maybe give hime working frontlights.... and as a surpirise .... tada... flashinglight pace car style (stay tuned!)
I was asked the same question since I wet sand quite a bit: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/featured-radicons/214854-november-featured-radicon-superquad7.html
when you use a 1000to2000 sanding paper which can be used (or best) if wet, to achieve a super smooth finish....
Well, his question is "what is wet-sanding". It's basically adding water to any kind of sandpaper to assist in sanding.
UPDATE: first post changed, PICS ADDED! Most ikely is that Streetwise is gonna be the left arm of Defensor like in the cartoon-drawing
Update v6! UPDATE: Digibash of Blades & Groove Movie-style in G1 color-scheme DAMN: still can't find a good HOTSPOT (maybe Nightwatch 2007 Optimus Primer Leader?) Stockade & Payload are fighting for becomming FIRST AID... tough choice sinds I don't have them spare, but will look around for them (btw if anyone in Europe has something I might need... please PM! Also original DEFENSOR COMBINER PARTS)
i think, payload fits better the alternate mode looks more like g1 firstaid than stokade however with a new head it will look great maybe...deluxe ratchet? (the head i mean)
Lookin preety good so far man. Have u decided on hotspot yet? mayb a voyager ratchet with a ladder and/or water cannon added. Just an idea! Keep up the good work man.
Yeah... I got 2 voyager the Green versions... 1 MIB and a loose, but their actually to pretty to customize.... I do have 4 Voyager Iron Hide's 1 Grey and 2 Perfect black... 1 other is very unstable..... If there was a way to make that one thight again O would try.... Fire Convoy and God Magnus are perfect for hotspot, got 3 aswell... but dunno,... really want to try sticking in the Movie Line Tough choises... Grrrrrr!
mmm maybe for hotspot, movie voyager optimus prime(the first one) i have it and its a pretty good figure althought its not g1 acuratted(XP obvious) its the only voyager class truck mode (except hunt for the decpeticons optimus voyager)
Hmmmm.... just used up my last spare voyager OP, but I will consider my Voyager Iron Hide or a 2007 leader OP cuz it's so big
UPDATE: check first post! [I have sort of idea for the Streetwise left arm mode, check out the pics!]
