My mom always told me where there is a will, there is a way. Turns out she was mostly right.
Back in the day I wanted a Voltron combiner toy, but being pretty poor at the time well my parents couldn’t make it happen. But I never really liked being told no when I wanted something, so I made one myself.
Yup with the help of my art teacher back in elementary school I made one out of card and paper, and lots of hope and dreams. It was pretty cool, and for being like six at the time it was the most amazing thing ever to me.
Then I saw this Cosplay Space Marine Dreadnought, and my mind was blown.
I mean sure these days anyone can convert just about anything from scratch but this masterpiece, and I’ll call it that- cause it really is, is just over the top amazing.
