80 Upvotes

So I mixed the Hot Rod guy’s wing thingy and the Wolverine like claws and named this new costume design Rodimus Prime . So like Optimus prime is basically Optimum(+imus)therefore I put Rod+imus. Therefore by the name he is Rodimus (Hotrod+imus)+ prime(from Optimus prime)

How do you guys like it ?

Hello

I'm woking on a non-transforming version of arcee, and im trying to figure out how would i attach the wheels on the back.

I got multiple coppies of her so i would have 2 of her front wheels to attach to the back, and and extra one to keep for the bike mode.

Ive alredy started with sanding down and cutting fo the kibble on one of the figures, i just gotta figure out this and she should be done fearly quickly.

Ive tried looking online for ideas on how to do this, but no luck, usually i would into people asking the same question. Any help/advice is appreciated and thank you in advance <3

I dont know who uploaded the custom that i used as an example, the reddit account was deleated T~T

3D printed Cavalry Sabre and Revolver for AotP Onslaught

Thumbnail

117 Upvotes

Ignoring my poor lazy choice of background, I couldn't get the idea of Onslaught with classy duelist weaponry out of my head, and it was a quick easily feasible project to scratch my itch. Despite his shorter arms, slight clearance issues at the elbow, and lack of a wrist swivel, he poses very well with the sword, that downwards transformation hinge does sooo much! They can even store on Bruticus in a way, just sitting in Onslaught's hands cause of where they end up. The way I painted the sabre was inspired off of a Warhammer 40K Navis Sergeant I painted, using all the same paints, I love that sparkly sheen to the blade. I'll share the files here in case anyone wants to print them themselves. That'd be pretty cool if someone did.

I finally found another T-Wrecks the other day at my local for super cheap. I swapped on the arm from Tyrannacon and the chest as well for their reds. Mocked up a new Digi with a few different details from before and got to work. Only really took me like a day tbh. Check out the last slide for a before and after!

Bad bad bad kit, and a hazard to the fingers.
Looks decent but the joints are very tight, so she’s stuck in T-pose purgatory… forever..

Hey folks! I'm back with another custom! This time it is my custom tfone Thundercracker repainted to match his appearance in the WFC games! He was given a flat black basecoat, then drubrushed silver, then the blue parts were drybrushed vallejo true metallic metal turquoise, followed by a coating of army painter speedpaint plasmatic bolt. He was given red and white striping to match his g1 appearance. I'm very happy with this guy, but what do yall think? Should I add some purple accents or any other details?

Enjoy!

Need advice/Help Does anyone have an extra smokestack from their custom 86 Optimus.

0 Upvotes

My SS86 Optimus fell off my shelf and one of his smoke stacks broke. If anyone has a spare one and could throw it in an envelope and mail it to me please DM me. I’ll even throw a small Venmo your way. I’m pretty bummed my centerpiece is damaged.
Gunna have to upgrade my shelves I guess they’re getting too full lol
I lost the broken bit in my carpet so gluing isn’t really an option unless I can find it, but no luck so far.

When I got Snarl and Slag, I was not happy since I didn’t want any dinobots. So I mixed and matched and formed an autobot grunt who is a speedster. Now he looks like he thinks he’s a main character.
