Blox Crow WIP "Corvustealth"

[Hellbound Crow]

With the amount of craziness going on right now (as is my life) I wanted to take my mind off of things and attempt to make this. It has been something I have wanted to do for quite some time. Although it is a WIP, I am pleased so far with how it has shaped out, should anyone have an idea how to improve this, aside from painting, let me know. :-) Without further delay, I give you the Corvustealth

Thank you! Coming from a master like you, it means a lot :-) gotta paint it and add parts when they come. And thanks too, I also hope things calm down. Just a lot of financial stuff going on, I know many here can relate. Building and customizing is a great escape from any bs. Helps with depression a lot.

Customizing as a passion, an addiction, and a form of therapy. I spent a lot of years in the depression zone, almost half my life. Perhaps that is why Zoids has such a deep emotional impact for me. They are a memory from before things became dark, and now they are a way to express what I've become out of it.

Stay creative, and stay strong.

Absolutely in love with the design. Looking forward to a painted version.

Found a bag of misc BLOX parts to further use. Changed the blox to be all black. Tweaked the head a bit to make it look more like a crow. Changed the neck attachment, so it's attached more solid. Added a few armor pieces, and redid the tail so it can flare out if needed. A tad on the fence with the tail, but redoing it allowed me to make the back more solid as well.





Feet back for Stealth Mode.


If anyone has suggestions, always happy to hear them. For paint. I am debating on either painting it a near black with the beak being darker, or vise versa. Really scared to paint this. Might ask someone to help me lol

You are 100% right and I thank you and every single member on this forum. You guys are like a second family and I love it! Much love to you all!

It takes a village, my friend. That's one of the reasons the loss of ZP was such a blow.

Still, on your custom, I would love to see you refine it, and especially given a unifying paint job... even just with primer, this bird would really fly!

Yeah me too, it is a shame. But it's legacy will live on :-)

As for painting. I am so freakin scared to do so. I may have to save up and possibly ask you to paint it. If you would ever be interested. Simply because I don't wanna mess this up lol. :-)

There are much better painters out there than me! Remember, you can do a TON of work with just a nice dusting of primer and an ink wash!
