Hi guys.

Been waiting around for a bit-
Thought I'd post my first attempt at a leader class figure. Basically, my take on Nemesis Prime. Didn't want to do him in black- wanted to be a little different!

Here he is so far.

He's still a WIP- still sorting out different weapons (have a ridiculously over-sized sword in progress and also want to make a few magnet attachment points so I can swap different weapons onto him) and detailing etc. Also want to make him a *lot more battle damaged- gaping holes in armour, broken windows, etc..

Have also toyed about doing bloodstains behind the windows to make it seem like he's transformed while a humans been at the wheel....

Will add more as I progress.

Interesting! Looks good so far. Might I suggest painting the wheels matte black to stop them looking so plastic? Or cover them with mud/dust colouring. At the moment the wheels spoil the overall effect.

Will certainly be doing the wheels before completion-

at the moment- heavily battle damaging the figure to make it seem like hes taken extensive damage to the chest region.
As follows-

...this is just the start of what i've been doing, have also got a shoulder-mounted weapon and even more battle damage to come.

nothing beats originality.. take it from me, 99.9% of my customs are something of my own design..Inever try and paint a figure to be something else, rather paint a figure the way I think he would look cool..

While everything looks great, especially the gray color your using, I think it needs some black detailing on some corners. i got to hand it to ya though the battle damge looks great, thats the one thing ive always been uneasy about doing..
