Transformers G1 Windblade V2 model by AndyPurro
Remember that trash model of Windblade that was supposedly an "enhanced Forged to fight model" that I made back in 2017?
(This pile of shit if you are new here: )
I decided since I made all those G1 Fembot models, I would make a V2 version of the model, and damn, there was a hell of alot of improvement since 2017!
With much better proportions, and with newer techniques with a bit of few reused parts from v1 (mainly the helmet, wings, cockpit, Camien Stormfall sword and lower legs) and a 80's cel shading style of materials, V2 is honestly my best version of Windblade yet.
Designing was a bit of a pain since I had a little difficulty taking a few design cues from her Older IDW designs (before her evergreen design made it into the comics) and the Titans Return Toy and the Takara legends figure and then there is the pain of making her look unified with my previous fembot models (which were purely based on their 80's Cartoon appearance), whilst not making it look too simplified as well. In the end I got it all right
I even made a face texture to make her signature Caminus face markings.
I think that's all that needed to say for this model.
Enjoy!
