Custom Transformers From Cybertron

Masterforce: Metal Hawk!!!

I found this while surfing at a Japan Auction !! Totally blew me away.
Custom Model Kit Metal Hawk.. I am so tempted to buy it but the asking price was a Whopping 300 SGD. Now it fantastic looking but I dont really like the face scupt a bit too tiny.. and his Jet mode has too long a cockpit.

But this is one hell of a custom.

Custom Movie Arcee updates

Painted my Custom Arcee. Tried to explore on a different colour scheme.

Still pink and white in general but I decided to use Pearl White with Pink instead of Pure white.

I am not quite sure I like the outcome.. Might repaint in the future when I get more time.

Yes it can still transform even with the rescuplt of the head.

Pink Lady

Close up on the face.

Fly .....

Up up and away....

Thanks for looking.....

Transformers Movie Arcee Face resculpt

I have always felt that the Movie Arcee was a awesome figure, sleek alternate mode, fantastic robot mode and can be really sexy but her face was a tad too ugly.
just like the rest of the movie figures. I have to give her a face lift.

I can't help it but break a 6month long hiatus to find sometime do retool her face.
I must admit that I've been procrastinating..but yeah.. she is simply too ugly.. hahaha

I really didn't know where to start, but I do know i really need to get rid of her mechanical fringe. That was really uncalled for.

Next I have to smoothen the lines on her face.. Zap all those ugly "Wrinkles" away.

Sculpting the lips is one of greatest challenges in my opinion

Next is to sculpt the "Helmet" for some reason it doesn't look as good as I envision.
Perhaps I lost the touch. Havent sculpt for too long.

As you can tell, at magnification, lots of flaws was reveal. It was not something I could see before taking this picture. Guess I need to smooth it a little more.

Just some pre-refine pictures. Will need to retool it a little more.

Hope I will get more time to rework on the head and even paint it..
Until then, thanks for tuning in.

Custom God Ginrai. Power Master..

More colours to my custom Voyager Class Optimus Prime but far from enough...

In order to add an additional door to each site of the chest, I must find a way to slide the door in and out so that it will not affect the transformation.

To do this I need a mechanism to allow the door the slide. And a perfect material to use is the

"Clip" in the File Fasterner.

Adding a little more colour. Still the paint work is really ugly. When I manage to find more time. I have to take him apart to give him a good paint job.

Bring it!!!

Custom Voyager prime.

I have tried to abstain from making any custom for the last 10 months cos, my wife is expecting and I don't want to create much dust and smell of chemical in my home.

My baby was finally delivered, and now I can finally get my hands wet again.

For a long time I been think of how to make Voyager Optimus prime more movie accurate. And many have posted their custom and its really getting my hands itchy.

Voyager Optimus Prime, even though transform very differently from the movie counterpart it. He certainly look closer to the later in Robot mode.

I have been thinking how can I go about doing it.. until I saw this pic.

This bust is the closet thing I have ever seen to the Optimus Prime in the movie. There actually so many pictures of him I cant be exactly sure how should Optimus Prime look like.

Before I work on him, that has some pictures of how good he look originally. In the even that I destroy him and make him worse.

As you can see on the pic above his head is a little stiff and that is something I wish to fix.

The Torso

Torso. While carry as much details as he should in the movie.. They are sort of weak, and "dwarf" as compare to the real thing.

So my intention was to make it look more obvious.

The Head

The head look great from the front, however the neck is not ball jointed and the "neck is getting in the way even if I added a ball joint to it. So that must first be trimmed.

And next adding a ball join to the stem of the neck.

Voyager Optimus prime looks much more like that of the Movie Optimus Prime and that pf Leader class in my opinion. However his face looks a little flat on the side. I would like to give him a little face lift.

So what you see above is that I have trim off the neck and replace the next with ball joint. (Apologies for the dark pictures. Its already night time when I finish and I do not have a spot light.:-( ....)

Next I try to give it more projection on the face mask I might have over done this a little. Will shape it down later .

Next, the torso. I have added a protruding side door on each side of the chest and the Visor on the top of the wind screen. ( I will work on the wiper later..)

See below, you can see that the side door now slide a part covering the hinge joints on both sides and the visor is now up at a certain angle mimicking on one in the movie.

And a ball joint neck allow prime to look up a little. I tried to work on the waist, however the screw got rounded when I attempt to take them apart. I will try it again .

I have not really paint them. Work on them in the next weekend or so..

Thanks for checking back.

Moive accurate Optimus Prime Helmet

Its been a long long time since I did any custom. Time was a factor, but my wife's expecting so I am staying away from all those paints for awhile. You never know whats chemical they have in them..

I have so much I want to do in my mind.. but Alas.. They all have to wait till the time is right.

However, I just got to do this one..
