Assuming that the weathered/beat-up look was intentional, I think it's really cool! I'd buy one of those if I saw it for sale.

You'll get more responses by posting stuff like this in the kitbashing section. Good job. Looks great!

Yeah, it was very intentional... I was going for "been around the intergalatic block a few times" Prime..

I'd be happy to paint one just like it for you, if you interested.. Especially if you could provide the fig...

Thanks

Very nice, but would like to see pics of him with his other gun, and in vehical mode. I personnally would have painted him as Nemesis Prime, though. I'm hoping for Hasbro to release him in Universe.

Man, I completely forgot to take vehicle mode pics.. I'll do that tonight..

I never got around to painting his other gun, but I probably should..
As far as the Nemesis, yeah, I wasnt really trying t ocopy any character specifically, I just made up my own (DarkStar Prime is from a little story I came up with)

Nice work CM, you sure can custom build things, Rush and the Climb Wall are both awesome too!

Cheers man!
