    Hey, everybody, hope you're all doing well.

    Today I'd like to introduce you to my custom Rubble, as seen in the current IDW Transformers continuity.

    Rubble is a newly forged Cybertronian who has been assigned Bumblebee as his mentor.

    Though he is enthusiastic about finding a vocation and deciding on his own alt mode, Rubble is not prepared for the sociopolitical change brewing on Cybertron.

    I repainted a spare Siege Battlemaster Firedrive using customised shades of purple enamel paint.

    He has a couple of dabs of silver and blue optics, but true to his comic appearance, he isn't very detailed despite being completely painted from head to toe.

    Thanks for looking. If you like my work I always appreciate your likes. Also, whatever your thoughts and opinions might be I'd love to read about them in the comments down below.

    Be well, stay safe and, as always, take it easy.

    That works really well. Although I do believe his alt mode suits the current sociopolitical changes brewing on Cybertron. He turns into a gun... ;)

    Thanks for the kind words!

    If you like Rubble you might also like this other IDW custom Verity Carlo.

    Cool!!
    See I guess he should’ve decided on his alt mode (missile launcher) sooner and then he would’ve been able to give Quake a run for his money

    So I haven't read IDW in a few years. Did they do a hard reboot, or was it a time travel type thing?

    They pulled a hard reboot, you should read the finales for Unicron, Optimus Prime and Lost Light (in that order) they're amazing, 9.5/10.
