Transformers, More Than Meet's the Eye! G1 Decal's!

by captjack (WIP, Decal & Customizing Chat)

Okay got a viru's last night that affected my movie decal's so i had to delete oh well such is life.

But in their depth come's their original conception's, here is Optimus Prime & Megatron in their G1 animated incarnation's. As soon as I've finished moving house I will begin to build the ark to scale along with several building's E.G: Empire state building, Big Ben and many other landmark's all with destructible wall's for those all important battle scene's. And if anyone need's the leg decal's then just P.M me and I'll give you the whole body.

Comment's and Tip's as alway's welcome.

  "Freedom is the right of all sentienent Being's!"

      Megatron & Starscream

Nemesis Prime

Edit: if you think the face's are bland it's only the decal, i plan on trying to make the outer helm's as an actual helm (Help needed!)

thats pretty cool cant wait to see more.

thank's for that but i'm afraid you won't see more for a couple of week's as i'm moving house next week, and plus it's awfull'y hard to do the front window's on his chest in a 3d view but on the plus side I'll be posting my G1 Prime and Megatron by this weekend I just need to add some finishing touches.

I'd also love to work out a way to light up their eye's.

cool well about the eyes you could take a glow in the dark head paint over all of it but where you want the eyes a walla glowing eyes .....in the dark.


by captjack on Wed, 07/18/2007 - 11:48

Cool but i was thinking of trying to do something like the light up light saber's, may be i could do it by hollowing out the head and the torso and put in a mini LED light.

I could try that but I'm mainly concerned on getting the decal's finished for now and i might consider building some set's to go with them.

by captjack on Wed, 07/18/2007 - 12:01

Thank's for that, I probably only need advice on where to find a LED.

By the way you don't happen to have any transformer that you want to be made, do you?

Hiya Jack -

Those are much better than the first ones you posted. the ones from the movie?

I love the cartoony style on these. Really they do remind me of the toys much more than the others.

Great job! can't wait to see a finished fig. On brickshelf there were some huge Transformers from the old series.. I ought to see if I can find them before time runs out.

Yeah i already saw them and i toyed with the idea for awhile but then i just decided to do non-transforming minfig's based on the original cartoon as the movie ones were good but they looked stupid not being 3d and also it was original i hadn't seen any one do these yet.

And I've just started to do big ben, I've made the hand's on the clock removable so then the fig's can rip em off and use them as spears :(>

Legofreak you don't have any ideas on how to make their helms do you.

I would say to either modify regular helmets, (I can think of a couple that might work) or use some sort of self hardening sculping material.

I know that's not much help, but those are the methods I'd use.

I've already figured out Megatron's a normal scorpion knight's helmet painted silver but Starscream & Optimus Prime and few others will need custom ones.

I think I might even sell some of them is I make mass on bricklink (I could do with the extra cash!)

i say you could use a modded batman helmet for optimus prime...

and modded alien helms work great for the movie versions of starscream and megatron.

I'm not doing any movie ones as they look stupid in 2-d and I've decided to sculpt the helmet's for most of the ones that need them.

And finally Rodimus is nearly finished and he should be up soon and the various re-colour's of starscream

BTW - this is a totally new idea, at least, I haven't seen it done before. I really do think you should try printing some out so we can get an idea on how they'll look in minifig form.

Finnaly moved now, just have to get round to buying some decal paper and i also have some new transformers ready to post, and I cant decide on silver or white paint for megatron's helm.
