[CUSTOM] Custom Autobot Warpath

chris-morada · Post by **chris-morada** » Mon Dec 17, 2007 4:10 am

Here goes another custom done by the one and only me, Chris Morada. I truly love this transformer character! Really! One of my faves actually... Anyways I decided to create a custom Warpath after receiving a suggestion from another cool fellow forum member, that I should create a custom Warpath as my next project. So here he is and I hope you guys like it, Enjoy!

And here he is in alt mode...

Very nice. But how did you make the cannon be in his abdomen? In the original Leader Brawl, it's off to the side, so how you made it fit into the center of his chest and still maintain an almost unchanged transformation is just amazing!

I simply used my good'ol dremel tool, cut a boxed hole shape and cleaned up the edges little bit and viola, but it's not as simple just cutting a hole and shoving his torso cannon in. Allot of modifications were involved making this forgotten character.

I wish I could post how this character was done, but I am currently working on a new website specifically for my TF customs, but I am caught up with many things at this moment so I am not sure when this site will be up, but definitely soon. I did have a blogger page while back, but I decided to remove it because of space limitation. Everything is being redirected to my Myspace at this moment.(http://myspace.com/ar15morada24) untill my site is up and running

Anyways here's a photo taken by me while I was working on warpath's head. The Deluxe wreckage head was used for the base mold, then I applied Aves apoxie sculpture clay over it, this clay is often used by professional scupture artists because it's super durable, when this 2 part clay hardens its like a friggin rock!

Thanks for the compliments guys!

I thought the eyes and nose looked familiar...

I can't wait to see your writeups of the rest of your work. There's pictures on your MySpace I didn't see until now.

I guess I forgot to mention that I have most my past work on my Myspace, but before Myspace I originally posted all of my work on blogger. For those of you wondering whatever happened to chrismorada.blogspot.com, as many of you know that site is no longer running, why? Because the amount of space they gave me was insufficient, so I decided to just get out and make my own (Still working on it).

I'm supposed to show a new TF fig today but the new car got in the way! Yeah, my wife and I decided to finally purchase a vehicle to get from point A to point B since It's been while we had a car. Anyways I got excited and I drove the car around to break the new engine in, and by doing so I forgot all about my project.

I'm 75% done, but as soon as I get off here I will try to finish him.

If you've got your stuff pooled in one spot where I can get to it, let me know what you want uploaded here. I'm piecing together a site update today (may get it done tonight, maybe tomorrow).

I know. I used to check it out a bit. Why did you kill it off completely before you were ready for the transition?

I'd go for the non-shiny finish.

It's nice to see Warpath getting so much love...

I think both warpaths are nice in their own way. Shineyness and Dullness, and all. It just depends on the styling that a person prefers....
