G1 Megatron work in progress renders

Nearly complete. Just like my Starscream, I'm building this one for 3D print and prototyping. I've updated the torso and face with my own little twist. Just a few details left before exporting it to ZBrush for final detailing and Polypaint.  

ROTF Starscream work in progress renders

One of my all time favorite Transformer designs and by for one of my favorite characters. Building for 3D print prototype. Still mostly in block-in stage. Turning out to be a terribly complicated design as there isn't much reference out there. Just a handful of high-res promo shots and several decent toys. ROTF Leader class Starscream is one of the best Transformer toys released to date, btw. Removed armor from left arm and left leg to work on substructure.
