I figured this might be worth sharing/talking about in here...

Over in the Iacon Art Gallery, some of you might have seen that I posted the latest episode in my ongoing fiction series, "Legends of the Halcyon Era." And on the mock-comic "cover" I made for it, there's a ship that may look familiar...

Yep; the ship/base is inspired by precisely what you think it is. I'd like to get a more distinct-yet-similar design for it at some point, but that wasn't able to happen by the time I needed this.

That said, if I ever got my hands on a G1 Maximus mold, part of me would love to give it a custom paint job like this (which was, in turn, inspired by this). Of course, given how long it's taken me to get my hands on one (37 years and counting), I am a bit reluctant about the idea, too.

(Especially if it winds up being Brave Maximus, because I love that color scheme and the windows and all that fun stuff.)

Side note: It's only been described as having similar base and starship modes in the story, nothing about a robot mode. I'm undecided on that, but I do have some ideas... particularly where the head is concerned.

Oh, and before anyone gets on me about a black/gold repaint, this is based around a character of mine who had those as his color scheme before it became so commonplace as a repaint color scheme. ;P

So hey, thinking on this... is anyone willing to try applying this to a G1 Fort Max pic?

Now I'm kinda curious to see how it would potentially look if I ever did get one and have the guts to customize it.

I'm itching to see more pictures of that TF One Quintesson especially how that head is mounted and if it can be raised above the shoulders... The urge to try and make a Botanica from it compels me.

I'm not suggesting I would buy these for the price. It was just fun to see how close I could get the colors.

 

[Sabrblade]

Ooh! Now I really want them to make Glyph and Tap-Out!

But we know they won't.

 

[Echowarrior]

Glyph and Tap-Out don't get nearly enough love.

I tried. It's hard to digibash black into something else.

 

[Sabrblade]

GIMME!

I wanted to see how Scorpy would look in traditional Autobot colours.

That's DOCTOR Scorponok to you!

Oooooooooh!

So he's a Ph.D!
