The only critique I would give is maybe paint the tiger/lion/animal head on the sword as well to match the rest of the hilt. Other then that I love it.
That is magnificent. I never realised how much detail was in the figure especially the forearms. What did you use to make the sword hilt?
Gotta admit I hadn't even noticed that! That's pretty cool. The sword just fits once you remove it from the mechanism.
We sort of discuss how to do it in this thread: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/720224-thundertron.html
Also thanks for the kind words, everybody. I am SUPER happy with this guy. Very few toys do I make a version of to keep but I'll be doing that with this guy.
Remember when figures actually came out with nearly this much detail? Sad how they have gotten so cheap... This looks awesome.
