well, don't think that it's anything wrong with the custom job, as it's not. I'm just a really big stickler when it comes to parts-forming I have no problems with it on older toys, but when it comes to modern ones I feel they have no excuse anymore (sometimes they do for budget reasons, but I still hate it and feel cheated). As for customs, it's a lot harder to pull it off with our limited resources, but I work really hard to try and make my stuff fit in with whatever line my custom is designed to fit with. My dislike is opinion only, it's not a reflection of the quality of the work!
no worries man, no harm, no foul, i feel the same way this is one of my earlier works as soon as classics silverbolt calls hasbro to build this fellow aerialbots i promise ill make one more to g1 spec standards.
Wow, he's massive. Reminds me of the Dreamwave comics Superion. Aside from the individual bots I see Primus, Unicron, Metroplex, Starsceam...maybe more. Nice work. My only minor crit is the GI chestplate seems a bit out of place. Also...and I know you're not really looking for critiques, but what about painting the limb "supporting" parts to match the individual bot? For example, if his right arm had a bit more red in it, it might seem like it was actually made up of that red jet. Just a thought.
not sure really where to put this, but this seems as good a place as any. with all the talent out there in Kitbashing land, and all the incredible ideas that you folks come up with, one would think that SOMEONE at hasbro or whatever would take notice, and at least make an attempt at making their TF products a bit better? I'm no kitbasher-just a lame repainter, but even I can see where so much improvement could be made. I would LOVE to have a lot of these kitbashes in my collection, especially the combiners ('course, I have 2 kids and a wife and a house...so I have no money!). Instead I settle for repaints and re-releases because I am a TF addict (G1 at least, none of that other stuff for me, save for the movie stuff). oh well...I ramble too much. just my two cents. oh--and lest I forget: awesome Superion!! can I have it? Bucket
I love how the overall look is so different between each of your combiners. Another great piece here, Mal.
I love the chest shield. the custom wings on the Powerglide molds, and the BFG for the combined mode. Beautiful work. Even the eyes say bada--.
perfect prortions! love the scale and the sheer detail you put into it. LED eyes make combiners come alive so far, this is the best superion custom work out there. I've seen some and they trail far away behind love it all the way
you need to attach ALL of your images. As you can see, already one of your pictures is gone because you didn't follow the guidelines.
There is no denying that that Combined Superion is gorgeous piece of work. I'm with some of the other comments about the multiple parts but the end result is sweet enough to look past it.
Thank you sir!! no problem thank you thanks yeah i love the proportions of the dreamwave images which is what i base a lot of my customs on, as for more detail wish i could i sold this thing a long time ago. It went to a good home tho. Dude i completely agree with you!!! I wish hasbro did remake there older characters with todays technology then i would have to spend months trying to make them myself...hahahahah. Thanks mampy, i figured hasbro and takara never made any of there combiners similar so i think i should do the same thx for the compliment mampy. Thanks ill put up more pics today. THANKS AGAIN RYAN!!! SORRY REDLINE ILL TRY AND FIX THOSE TODAY. IM SURE ITLL LOOK GREAT BLACKLION, AS LONG AS YOUR HAPPY WITH YOUR WORK. THANKS WHEELJACK, DONT WORRY GOT A VERSION 2 COMING OUT!!!
