My God... that sword! I'm really digging the added articulation to the individual modes, and cannot stop staring at that combined form. Fantastic stuff.
awesome efforts...to articulate the individual bot is sumething not so easy especially to tantrum and headstrong..their leg need to reassamble the new one or if take an old leg, very hard to articulate while in the same time maintain the beast leg slide inside...and after that sliding the whole leg sliding inside the main body...but honestly that can be done if we dint use this method and just change the leg..the beast mode later will a bit lanky at the back..that is the major problem we face when use other robot leg.. my only gripe is when the conbine mode occur, the leg is like short...if u add more articulation to ankle mybe it can increase the measurement of the short leg and in the same time create the proper articulations on that area.. the feet n toes area i think instead need to lenghtern a bit..i saw like one chinese guy (Rain) done, first i think when we create supreme size no need to adjust that feet area, but after i see yours i think we hav to adjust that when it seems like it is too small for that overall conbiner sizes.. honestly this is the best predaking i ever seen plus each of predacon can articulated..last time i saw this is Devastator from Sector 70 and Rain..but urs is most impressive from all of those..
u know how i feel about this custom bro, looking sweeeet! i love it. i'm sure you will work out the feet/leg problem. and i cant WAIT to see him painted! and i thought i worked fast at times, but u are A MONSTER!!
After considering Wan De Real's suggestion to lengthen the feet, I found that this made the torso look too short. So instead of increasing the length of the feet, I made up some new forearms to help balance out the gorilla like proportions. Should I keep the new forearms or go with the old?
Same Unicron, but shorter and thinner than the original forearms. Guess I didn't do a good enough job shrinking them haha. Took off about a half inch in length and quarter in width. Thought it fit him better but needed second opinions whether to keep the gorilla look or not. Also, to anyone who painted Unicron's rubber-like spike parts. Is there anything special I need to do in order to paint them or will it hold the paint as well as any other hard plastic piece?
i've wondered the same thing, with the rubber. but i would think that if u covered it with future floor finish, it might do the trick. i'm not sure, because i havnt tried it.
simple..just cover it with resin..the result will be good.. *edited* oh i dint see the first page first MOe...that is amazing adjustment outcome...really2 great...now it looked more perfect..just one left there..the toes..mybe u can increase the feet toes ..add more lenght it the front to become longer or in the same time add articulation to ankle and toes area.. and widen its wings will make this conbiner the perfect edition of its kind...
I like these arms... in fact this whole Predaking looks frickin' EPIC! I mean, blah blah... I'd like to see something like this pulled off with fewer add-on parts, my old complaint about these types of combiners... but in terms of capturing an awesome Predaking likeness, with some great proportions, this is all fantastic!! zmog
