Transformers Classics Barricade

Sentinel Prime · 04-30-2010, 03:47 AM

Hi there! Good to see ya. I guess this makes as good as any for a 100th post!

Y'know, one of the things I liked about the first Bay movie was Barricade. He was just cool. I liked the idea of a Decepticon cop car, especially if the 'con likes messing around with humans.

So, I got to thinking it would be cool to see the character in a G1/Classics style. I wanted him to appear to be from that "era" so I immediately decided that I didn't want him to have freakish claw hands or a insect like face. I wanted a G1 look.

I used various enamels for the body. Two shades of purple were used for details with some light silver drybrushing, and a label pack from dear ol' Reprolabels. The car light was Film-Barricades.The head belonged to Cybertron Thundercracker. The chainsaw belonged to a Zoid.

Hope you like the pics, he was really fun to make!
