    Hello everyone.

    Have a new W.I.P project.

    So I decided taking a pause on my D.J.D project as I'm still running out of some necessary parts and ideas for the evolution of the works.

    In order to avoid my hands and brains to go rusty I picked up these parts I had lying around and I thought I could create a good Galvatron out of them.

    He will transform into a Cybertronian tank thingy and will hopefully be about Hegemon Size .There's a lot to do yet, so I'm posting pics of his barely built altmode.

    Hope I can make some good progress soon.

    C&C and suggestions are welcome as usual and thank you very much for checking this out.

    Update: 11/28/12

    Just feeling kinda lazy these days, thus no much progress to show but his abb pannels, leg details and his crown.

    Update 11/24:

    Adding up a few details on the legs and shoulders, changed the waits and thighs, added up waist side tabs, knee pads and new feet in order to increse his height.

    Next step will be his crown, chest, lower arms treads and other minor details.

    Joey, you know he has a tank alt in the comics, so this will work nicely!
    I expect that you will rock this custom :)

    Thanks bud!

    Legs are from AT-TE Starwars TF. Thanks bro, I will not disappoint you.

    Thanks Yaujta! Will be adding treads indeed. Generations Warpath style.

    Thank you bros, I'm glad you guys approved the concept!:D 

    @Stormvapor: Star Wars AT-TE whit some mods for sure bro.:thumb 

    I confess that this idea has crossed my mind Christopher, I need a good Galvatron for my shelf though. Thanks and I hope you like the final outcome!

    Thanks fellas! I will not disappoint you!

    Thank you amigos!

    Thanks!
    There will be his characterist "belt" in the middle section. So he will look more balanced for the final product.

    I scratchbuilt the cannon out of some different parts and a thick pen I had here. I'm glad you like it.
