Been a few years since I did any customising, and this particular one has been a long time waiting ... mostly for the right mold to come along.
(V1 just wasn't quite right)So who is Slice? Long term players of Seibertron.com's
Heavy Metal War will know her as one of my "Freaks", the sister to Dice (aka The Unholy Goddess of Strafing) she was always the little red jet that could.
As a female, finding the right figure was always a problem, until Transformers Prime came along and with it, the Starscream mold. Though in this particular case I used the Beast Hunters Starscream mold.
First time back after a few years break, I did things incorrectly, opting for the lazy spray paint approach rather than a more labour intensive hand painting (which I'm not bad at). So a few things I would have done differently, but what's done is done!
Oh and if you're curious ... custom weapons attached via magnets.
Let's get to a bio shall we?
(NOTE: Bio is a little old and in need of an update...)
Allegiance : Decepticon
Sub-group : Freaks Incorporated
Function : Strategist / Second-in-Command
Slice was one of those rare female Decepticons. Graduated from the Decepticon Military Academy nearly at the top of her class. The only thing that stopped her from being at the top was the fact she was female. The discrimination didn't end there when she found herself assigned to some obscure planet in some distant galaxy, a remote outpost involved in some expansion plan of the Decepticon Leader Jhiaxus.
Following an attack by Autobots that left the outpost destroyed, Slice found herself pinned beneath the rubble, helpless as she listened to the sounds of her fellow Decepticons in pain. Slowly the sounds dimmed until there were none, her fellow Decepticons had entered stasis lock.
As she lay there for days, Slice slowly felt her life force diminishing until she spotted what appeared to be a shuttle approaching the ruins of the outpost. Hours later on the verge of stasis lock the form of Gore appeared over her. The rest was a blur until she woke up in the remains of the outposts medical bay. She explained everything to Gore, who she was, why she was here, what had happened, as well as the star cruiser hidden beneath the outpost. With her life indebted to Gore she joined him so they could both return to Cybertron.
Abilities :
Slice is fast. Her sleek jet mode enables her to slip through the air at high speeds. Her high speed also incorporates into her robot mode, enabling her to pull of a dazzling array of attacks making her one of the fastest fighters.
Weaknesses :
Due to her sleek frame, Slice isn't as strong as some of her fellow Decepticons which is why she instead opts for heavy weaponary instead of hand to hand weapons. In addtion she has shed some protective armour plating to increase her speed, this leaves her open to being easily damaged if she's too slow evading an attack.
And now ... pictures.
