Could somebody out there digibash that image for me??! I would very much appreciate that.

I've wanted to paint one for the longest time but don't really wanna spend the cash on the figure till i see if it actually looks alright.


Here you go, Enjoy!

I could be wrong but who here thinks that Shadow Commander-amped Nemesis Prime - THE KNOCK OFFS - could possible be retooled and kitbashed into Motormaster?

HA!....Excellent! Thanx Overcracker!! He definitely looks a lot less tough looking but i had to see it. If i do come across this mold again for dirt cheap i'll be doing this paint job. With a change or two here and there but I do like ridiculous colours on TF's so this works for me.
But once again.....thanx for the time and effort Overcracker. ;)^

I'm thnkin that i would use a light shade of pink on the grey plastic at his knees and biceps. His shoulders and claws i would try and chrome out. Just like the chest shield on the original.It does look like you tried the lighter pink on the biceps and silvered up the shoulder/claws area a bit though. It's just not showing up very distinctly.

That's about it really.

Oh......and carry the blue on the abs up around his head area. Like a blue stripe.

I really do love him painted like that!

did give him a slight pinkish hue on his biceps, but did nothing to the claws. That's just the Silver from the Picture.

A re-done version follows.

Added pink hue to knee area, and chromed out shoulders and claws. (Tried to anyway)

There's a pretty impressive Acid Storm custom (based on the MP figures) selling on eBay right now for $500. Down at the bottom he shows pics of his custom Sunstorm and Ice Storm (???) too. Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180726049031
