yes and now, lol!!! i searched hi and low and the dew claw varies on different animals so i sort of went with the flow and had therm facing the way i set them,


hi guys
sorry about delay in posting, slipped disc, so no building for a few weeks, but im back on the case, right rear legs complete, quickly assembled to show you guys, tail im really pleased with, the whole thing folds up, and gives ravage the tail he deserves, the tip i engraved, one side human, the other side autobot, with tallies of how many ravage has killed. i can imagine ravage using his claws to engrave his latest kill, anyway heres the pics, still got to tweek a few things,but the whole building part is done.
all the best

hi guys
right ive been beavering away on ravages iconic missiles, totally built from scratch, the main part of the missile was an empty air freshner cans, to get the dome part of the missile, i hunted high and low and bought some kids egg type toys, cut the top part of and filled and sanded and the dome part was done, then it was a case of adding details like thrusters at the rear, wing details, scopes on the top etc etc, quick coat of primer and a mock up with ravage, alls looking good, heres the pics

hi guys
sorry about the delay in posting, ravage is getting close to being done, this is whats been done, styrene detail was added to the whole of ravage, this bit was very time consuming, as everything had to be repeated for the oppisite side, layed in different places to add depth, deception symbols painted in purple and weathered for a more edgy look, the whole of ravage went into primer first, then a few days later top coat, matt black for the body,head neck and tail and paws, silver for the legs, then each part was then weathered to give my ravage an edgy vibe, , missiles also on silver and weathered too, an orange glow was added to the rear thrusters and side parts,im now working on the case part, for transporting ravge, but wanted to share whats ben done so far,
all the best
