Custom Protoform Starscream and Optimus Prime!

These guys were sitting on my desk painted all black since I did that review for Mike Crawford. They were suppose to be my first TF movie repaints but everyone wanted the actual movie figures repainted, I kept pushing them back. Now that I've finished the main line (Yes yes, Leader Prime is coming eventually) I can work on my fun projects like these two, Swinwave, and of course the nearly-completed Transformers painting guide!
First, Protoform Prime. Can you say 'eight different metallics'?

Protoform Starscream. Only six different metallics, but still just as detailed.

I know these may not be cannon to however they're colored in the comics or the glimpse of proto-Prime you may of seen in the movie but sometimes I need to get creative with my colors and techniques. The blue-to-green chest on Prime has be grinning from ear to ear because it worked. As did the transition from one metal to the next shade.
