It's always nice when your homework and your hobbies coincide. My CAD Professor got a REAL kick out of this one. This is what I call a midterm

By CAD drafting and 3D printing a replacement chest, Galvatron is turned into Nemesis Prime. The head is from the Evasion Optimus mold, his buster cannons also drafted and printed.

And yes, I got an A Enjoy!

Looks really nice but god those guns are big. They look good for the robot mode but in truck mode not so much.

Hey! I saw that when you posted it to the Reprolabels group on FB. Nice to put a face to a name. And I still think this is stunning work.

Amazing work for such a simple concept! What is great with shellformers is that there is so much freedom to customise what you want how you want.

As one said above, the only fault are the guns. Great for robot, but ridiculous for vehicle. This could have been easely avoided by making the canons in 2 colapsable parts. You know, the smaller end just go inside the bigger end like an old school radio antena. This way, the canon look is exactly the same in bot mode but the smokestacks remain a reasonable size in vehicle mode. Plus, it add some more transformation!

Overall, that's one heck of a work. The paint job is also amazing!

If :michaelbay: thought of this instead of Galvatron.The truck makes a very awesome Nemesis Prime but a somewhat weird Galvatron.

Megs DID had a truck mode in DOTM. Still, it's true that a flat nose truck is very Optimus G1 hommage so it's a bit odd that Galvy took this form. However, I see this as some kind of "Optimus trolling".

That is also a clue to what I plan to do next for my next custom. ;)

Looking forward to it.
