Really love this custom! But I have to ask (maybe I missed reading it earlier); what is with the nerf dart???

I shoved that in there to fill up the space so that the arms wouldn't fall off from its own weight. Currently the arms are just held up by some hot glue

Huh. Blades tipped with thicker blades is kind of weird, but it definitely fits the werewolf motif. if I might make a suggestion, gluing on a thin post or piece of wire following the back of the silver claw tip along the upper edge of the gold piece, roughly to the point where it bends... would sort of stabilize the visual design.

Agreed, a wire would be a good way to break up the long facade of the gold piece. It'd also change the weapon from a somewhat cliche "blade" to something else... maybe an electrified blade with a taser between the two silver claw pieces? Lots of angles you could work with if you mix it up with that claw blade thing.

This was more like showing the blade's length and how it would "hide" in the forearms lol. I like the electric blade idea too!. still sourcing for suitable parts from my parts bin.

COud easiy work it int a sort of stun blade/electron driver like on the Zero X, which would give the Werewolf some ECM capability, which is something a melee zoid could always use, so it could get closer, plus I just love the idea of a zoid firing lightning.

This is some of the most creative use of parts I've ever seen. I never in a million years would have thought to use maccurtis legs as spines, and they fit SO WELL making a big solidly integrated razor claw that looks like it's supposed to be like that

Too bad there aren' any contests going on it would be an honor to lose to this bad-boy! wow that is some high compliment dude! lol. Really glad that you think so highly of my work. i have to admit it does feel kinda lonely though that i don't see much customizing going on. i know you are building some amazing and I'm lurking on your homepage and here to see if you uploaded anything every now and then lol.

I jus happened to have those lying around and i though it looked kinda cool to barb the edges of the blade lol.

Oh I love those last set of pics. I imagine Deathsaurer must have been initially surprised when first sighting the werewolf, a zoid bigger than himself. Good choice Deathsaurer, Be friends with the large werewolf.

Can't help but think that, in that slightly leaned back pose, the leg bent back makes your zoid look like it is about the do the crane kick on deathy.........
