Revenge of the Fallen Aerialbot Skydive, Robot Mode Originally: [link]

When a good friend of mine, Otis aka chansformers, whom I first met at TFcon 2008 decided to make this ([link] ) amazing custom of my favourite character for my birthday, for the first time in a long time I was speechless. So using my evil moderator powers on cybertron.ca I found out his birthday was also this month, dropped all my current projects and rushed to make him something as well. Oddly this only took me 2 days to do

But damn you Otis! I didn't know what you'd like but I know you like your G1 homages and this one came to me while tinkering with Thrust and Breakaway. Using unicron.com for reference material ([link] ) I based the colour scheme mostly off his TV appearance and some off the toy.

Some slight mods made to him, the cockpit has been modded so his head can pop up and look side to side, also the "cone" part of it was shaved down to make him look less like one of the "coneheads". Also added the missiles on the wing tips to make him look more like his previous F-16 self.

As for the paint, Testors aluminum was used for the fuselage, hands, forearms, and legs, silver for the gun barrel, red on the side of the intakes, abs, and hips, blue on the vertical tail fins and eyes, flat black for the wings, shoulders, forearms, jet intakes, and head, and finally orange on the face and inside the jet engine to simulate it on fire. Also added the Autobot sticker for obvious reasons.

Happy Birthday Otis
