classics g1 underbase starscream

so i went back and revisited a older project that didn't turn out as well as i hoped.
i tried to make a classics rendition of starscreams appearance when he aquired the power cosmic from the underbase.(think allspark,before bay got to it)
in the giant sized vintage marvel issue,starscream proceeded to deactivte and slaughter both autobots and decepticons,even though they tried to team up against him but to no avail.
in the end,his own lust for more power caused his down fall,absorbing the whole underbase and all of it's energies,growing to the point that he burst into spacedust(he grew larger than planet earth itself near the end)....his remains to be used later on for pretender starscream by megatron.

the paint works were done previously(like i said,it didn't turn out how i wanted),and another 12 hours have been used to panel line him to the extreme.(4 days, 3hrs a day)
i tried to make it look like he just recieved the first dose of the power cosmic,which is why he's only detailed half way in both modes in certain spots.
i'm now somewhat happier with this custom.













"commandron" mode

Re: classics g1 underbase starscream

Looks great dude, Id love to see you get your hands on an oversized KO of starscream and do this with a larger mold. Great job.
I loved that issue, the whole marvel run was awesome, I cannot wait till it comes back.

Awesome. The detail that panel lining brings out is supurb. Tedious, but worth it imo. What was the previous paint? It looks like an opaque clear.

Re: classics g1 underbase starscream

I love it! The Marvel comic where Starscream is all powerful with the Underbase' power is one of the few TF comics I ever had growing up, so this really does it for me.

Excellent work on the panel lining, Chans, and I also like how Starscream's colours are paler like they were in the comic.
