Classic Hound & Ravage

NOW ON EBAY

This is my newest custom - Classic's Hound and Ravage. I did what I had to in order to get these so soon, and out of the box, thought Hound could use some upgrades.

I removed the existing hands and added some very articulated ones, which still fold into the forearms for TF into alt form. I also removed and replaced the tires with rubber tires, giving the jeep more respect.

The decals are water slide, custom made. A bit tricky getting white graphics on dark green, but I floated the text in green (matching) then painted around the graphics.

All in all, I am happy with the way he turned out, I think I've done a nice job bringing him to life.

Re: Classic Hound & Ravage

I think you have successfully "brought him to life". Well done.

Dude... that's great!

And that, my friends, is class: customizing a pre-release figure!

Re: Classic Hound & Ravage

I agree, very nicely done! I'm always impressed by your work.

Now tell us what you did to Ravage, or is he untouched?

Re: Classic Hound & Ravage

Ravage was just repainted with a matte black, then detailed. I added the silver to his fore-arms/legs and remade the faction symbol on his back.

Re: Classic Hound & Ravage

Too bad the actual toy won't look anywhere near as good as this. Fantastic job there!
