#g1 vortex

drawn for a combiners relay event over on lofter

I had wanted to post this after I saw that DOPE Combaticons pilot that Keyan Charlie and his amazing team made. Loved it front to back, and even if it was a one-and-done pilot, I would love to see more stories from that universe.

G1 Vortex for anon on Ko-fi!

The red 'copter is fine and all the parts work! But.... the green plastic is really brittle and doesn't even glue well! Bits snapped one after another putting the kit together, and then again taking it apart for painting. So I've had to ditch lots of the components including the underbelly mount and guns and the interior cabin details because of snapping plastic, but the outer shell is still solid and the rotors are good enough!

Currently everything is primed and drying on the grass. I need to take a closer look at my color blocking and what makes sense where on Vortex and Blades, but then, I can get the actual paint job going.

A dragonfly photo bombed my pictures, so here's a closer look at him!
