Longtime readers will remember that I am developing a line of customs revolving around the aquatic world Aquos and the various inhabitants (both sentient and animal), droids, and vessels that inhabit it.

This is just a little sneak preview :)

Laserbeak is a deadly spy/attack droid of avain design in the employ of "Bloody" Bil Ni'Hee, the most dangerous and deadly of Aquos' five "Pirate Lords". Equipped with a highly advanced sensor and targetting array in it's head, Laserbeak is often used as a spotter by the gunners of Ni'Hee's vessels during naval battles and can even join in the attacks itself with it's dual, fire-linked blasters and on-board compliment of four concussion missiles. Laserbeak is often cranky and unruly if anyone other than Ni'Hee is interacting with it, no one really knows why, but the droid seems to be very attached to Ni'Hee. When not in flight spying on or shooting at Ni'Hee's enemies, Laserbeak can be found sitting, powered down, on it's perch near the steering column of the "Reaper", Ni'Hee's personal Flagship.

Blasters- POTF2 Garindan blasters (heavily modded)

This is super slick. I love how close it looks to the TF yet its totally your creation.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. You are the king of "vehicle" customs. They all look production.

This selection of parts is so bizarre and yet works so well. Fantastic custom.

"LASER BLAST" genious! I've made Lazerbeak customs and I've used that back pack for several sci fi projects. I've never thought to put the two together. Now that I see it, it seems so obvious. I'll have to use this idea some day. Freaking fantastic job.

I like this Laserbeak as well. I almost thought of stealing that idea when I remembered I didn't have a droid to work it from.
Love to see what you can do with a Ravage along those lines as well.
Accident does seem to have got your creative juices going again though.

Ravage is in the works as well, but it'll be a bit before it is done as the base parts I need are stuck in one fo the fodder boxes in my storage unit :(

Yes it has. I have found that I can do something I really enjoy while I'm laid up waiting for my pelvis and knee to heal :)

What a neat idea. I don't know that I'd ever thought of doing the Cassettes as anything but the Cassettes.

If I had another Hawk backpack w/missiles, I would do just that in a heartbeat :)
