Hey guys,
I usually don't like to share work in progress, but this one's pretty ambitious and I need every ounce of help I can get.
Here are some VERY EARLY ideas on how to make a combiner kit for the TFA Stunticon set.
Plans are as follows:
-get the scupt looking good
-get the parts 'close', with mechanicals worked out (I'm considering make the parts fit over tip Lego joints)
-make prototypes
-custom fit
-cast parts in color with painted highlights
So yeah, it's a big job...won't happen overnight. But I'm thinking of giving it a big effort.
Please see the early CAD. Give me your thoughts on 'the look', and any suggestions on how to get this done.
Here's a picture of the 3D parts merged with a 2D background...try to 'imagine' the TFA Prime, Arcee, etc. in 3D...
Another view...
Here's the headscupt...proportions aren't quite right yet...I haven't put in the vents or details until I get the geometry correct.
Cheers,
Echo
