Here was my entry to the I.C.O.N. contest. It got me a tie for 3rd place in which I'm super happy about (because it was my first contest entry)! I'm adding many of the work in progress pictures plus more. The storyline and recipe is below. I made these customs to fit into Tankster's Desolation world, which is totally amazing!
I present to you my entry for the I.C.O.N. custom contest. From the crazy world of Tankster's Desolation comes TREX and his dinomech Ragertank. TREX was a Vermillion General in the Civil War. During his last battle of the war, his squad eliminated an Azurian patrol team. In the fight one of the Azurian Dinorides was left, nearly dead. TREX felt compassion for the beast and took him took him to a Vermillion bio-medical camp nearby to see if they could help him regain his health. They weren't able to restore him as a regular dino-beast, but they did upgrade him to a dinomech. The beast, in debt for his life became loyal to TREX and decided to remain by his side. After the war they traveled the land in search for remaining Azurians to destroy, together. TREX communicates with the Ragertanks controls through connections in the gunner cockpit (they connect to the dinomech's brain). The Ragertank has 11 pulse cannons from the gunner turret all the way to the belly of the beast. It is ran by bio-fuel that that is easily obtainable from many of the downed vehicles in the war. TREX Recipe: Head - TofuJesse sculpt Torso - 25th Mindbender Arms - Zanzibar Legs - Renagades Cobra Soldier Hands - custom fodder Vest - ROC Barbecue ??? maybe dinomech Ragertank Recipe: Head, rear legs, and tail - Imagenext Dinosaur Front legs - Cobra Mech Lower vehicle body - Vintage Cobra Rage Upper vehicle body - Vintage Cobra Hisstank Main cannon and front pulse cannon - Styrene Lower belly pulse cannons - Vehicle fodder Barrel and Chains - Vintage and Corps fodder Mesh camo - screening from hardware store The Ragertank has a battery box, on/off switch, and locations/wiring for 5 leds, I didn't include these in the contest because I wasn't able to make a video. There is a Azurian symbol on both upper halves of the vehicle, TREX crossed them off with his Azurian blood. Most vehicles made during this time were made from scraps of previous war machines. Bonus WIP and other pictures:

Great pics. Congratz on placing. The Dinomech is just wild. How the heck do you even think it up? "Hmm, TREX here needs some wheels..... I know! A Cyborg Dinosaur Tank!" And I thought that I had some weird thought processes.
Great job, Man! Very creative. Yeah, I know. Just pasted this from my post on the 13
