Finally, after a few days of being very productive outside of my teaching, I have assembled the Transformer for my Audi R8. So far, so good. I’m loving how everything worked out. There were some changes based on my sketch but those changes were for the better.If you’ve noticed I’ve changed the main color to red since the pale blue color does look kind of pale. I haven’t seen a red Autobot so I guess my Transformer that will now be named as “Odie” will be affiliated with the good guys. If you wonder why I chose that name, well, maybe you should see my related topics on what car I used for this transformer.  Anyway, here are the renders.

What started out as an Anime has become one of Japan’s best selling franchises when it comes to action figures and model kits. Last March, its latest series called “Gundam 00″ ended and it ended very well compared to most Animes and even other Gundam series.

Macross has been one of the biggest Anime franchises and so far, the last time I saw a Macross related Anime was when I was a kid. In fact, that was the first I felt a fever. I didn’t get sick because it was bad (I actually watch anything on TV back then), I just got sick of overwatching, or so I was told.
