SO I started to turn Classics Prime into Classics Nemesis Prime. It isnt done but close. May look sloppy like Hasbro's paint jobs but meh, my first time



Update: Ok almost done, need to touch up on the bumper and chrome areas but other then that..Classics Nemesis Prime is almost complete. And could use some advice on Teal, it seems to be a dark teal color and on the Nemesis figures in the galleries they're a light teal, any solutions on my small setback?

Your pics are a bit on the blurry side, but the work so far looks pretty good. Keep it up.

Ya I'm using a old gateway DC-T50 5.25 megapixels digicamera. So blurryness HOOOOO

Ouch. I use a Canon EOS Digital Rebel SLR digital camera for my photography.

Kick ass Idea weldone.

One thing that makes good painting is take your time slow down and enjoy it I know it's hard you want to see it done so bad but if it takes you 2 weeks to build/paint and looks really good you will have a good looking figure for years if you bang it out in a hour or so it looks like it for years.
To help me curb my need to see it done I will work on more than one project at a time so I will let the paint or glue dry right before I get back to work on it

you got a great start if your happy with how it turns out thats all that really matters.
for pictures try better lighting use a backdrop and a tri pod or something to steady it.
we want better pictures of your coolness.

Ya. I am looking into getting a better digicam. But enough of kinda offtopic stuff. I cant think if I want to paint of the silver lining on the sides like in the pic, or to paint em teal.

I usually dont have time due to work and all but I'll try my best with the picture quality and finish it sometime, but I'll take your word and work on another project

From the look of that pic, you camera is good enough, you just need to get it to focus properly on the TF rather than on objects in the background. I can see your fridge, rake and bucket very clearly. Perhaps standing up some cardboard or something behind him so there isn't anything far away for the camera to focus on would help.

On topic, I'd say go for the teal.

Teal all the way!

Nemesis Breaker from the Cybertron line is a good reference point.

And your painting is far superior to Hasbro's efforts on the movie line!

Looks great. I want one.

Bumpity bump, dont bump back =D
