Part III of my little series here, presenting G2 Stunticon Dead End.

Surprisingly enough, he is one of the more well-documented Stunticons, as a fan name "Kaye" won the Hartman piece off of eBay and put up a detailed gallery soon after. Sadly, though, the gallery is now gone, but I managed to snag enough of his pictures to make really good reproductions of the sticker details. As such, he is probably the most accurate reproduction I have, both regarding details and color hues. I'm very proud of especially how the door stickers came out, as they are really complex with several layers of vector graphics - and almost look pro to me. smile.gif I should share the Photoshop image at some point... smile.gif

Still need a handgun for him, and the arms need replacing (the previous owner of the G1 toy decided to widen the hand holes, so even if I *did* have a handgun for him, he wouldn't be able to hold it... tongue.gif ). Already have a new arm donor ready. smile.gif

Big props to my buddy Ras, who provided some shots of his own authentic pieces for me to get some final details from! smile.gif

As promised above, I've decided to share the image I did for the door sticker. I found both the desing itself as well as the proces of translating it into a vector basid graphic both very intricate as well as educational, and I am very proud at how it turned out (the image shown is "flat" and compressed rather hard, though, but the details should still be quite visible).
