    Hi there! Make yourself at home.

    Wrapped on my second of 3 Beast Wars figures, Rattrap. Just thought I'd swing by and share some pics with ya.

    A straight up repaint, he features dark flesh over silver to provide metallic brown, which is an odd color to have to come with in retrospect. The bot and rat faces were matched up to the show, and his pink parts were made fleshier. (ew)

    Inside the backpack there is some detail with ribs and some pistons sticking into meat which looks cool but gross. I drybrushed a little light brown on the fur to cut back on the shine as well.

    Thanks for your time!

    "Cool but gross" was practically the entire theme of the first wave of BW figs. :lol  Just look at boney Dinobot or gut-gun Cheetor.


    Awesome repaint. I love the detail in rat mode.

    RT looks great. I'm not so sure about all the teeth in Beast mode. Overall nice job.

    Ditto! I love this soooo much! :drool:  Or you could just send my this rodent, I need an original Rattrap. :wink:  Seriously though, can I send you my TM Rattrap? He needs some help and I'd love to see what a talented 'basher like you could do with him.

    Very nice. It would be cool if there was some kinda mod you could do to the figure to make it sit on its hind legs like he did in the show. In any event, nice custom.

    Given stratonrye's avatar for the longest time, I think ol' Chopperface's deserves the vermin! This Rattrap looks really sharp, great colours, though not feeling the teeth. Good job, sir.

    Perfect repaint. If basic (scout) Rattrap's mold wasn't broken, I think he should have been officially released like this.
