Heavy Mods & Scratchbuilds Metroplex Project: Classics WIP

[S.O.N.]

So I had to give this a shot and I think I have some good proportions. Keep in mind this is only a WIP so I have a lot other mod work to do and fine tuning.

Still have to do:

Head cannons - using G1 parts
Weaponize Metroplex - Using G1 parts as shown - weapons will be modded to be more modernized as well
Mod shoulders by shortening tops
Add Add tires to thighs - Like G1
Mod forearms (less like Primus, more G1-like)

Basically he'll receive a classics/modern paint job but with subtle wear and tear and I do plan on glow effects up the arse

Can't wait to see this one finished!

This is going to be amazing. I'm really looking forward to this one.

[chans formers]

this looks promising!!
very good proportions too!!

[Shepp]

Please no glow effects up the arse. Nobody wants that.

I suggest the arms, legs, chest, eyes, anywhere but up the arse, for Primus' sake.



So far its looking awesome. Like a true Classics Metroplex instead of a FoC inspired one.


edit:

are you planning on modifying the missile rack in his left chest, and the cannons to the left of his head, but still make them retract?

TeeHee-ous!!

But I must agree, I think glow effects in the eyes are a given and hands are cool, but not where the original poster wanted to put them!!!

Thanks guys, it took awhile of messing around with various parts and figures to get the right recipe for my version

lol man, thanks! I'm trying, I'd like to get them to look more modernized and not so 1980s, I got some ideas but nothing is really hitting home yet. 3

I'll keep this in mind, I might have to spend more time between his modes to see where the glow will be most convincing
