Custom Movie Optimus Prime

a butt load of detail was added. removed the old small smokestacks and installed some nice long stacks with angled tips just like in the film. the arm cannon is removable and i made the energon sword with sheet styrene then custom painted it to match that of the film. oh, the sword is also removable, it fits nicely over primes fist.

thanks for looking

I love the paint apps, can you tell me what kind of blue you used?

Very nicely done overall!

did you use the same products to make those chrome stacks taht rumble_frenzy explained in his tutorial in this section, or did you use something different?

honestly i dont know, i never read r_f's post. i had some plastic tubing in my basement that was strong and happen to be the perfect size so i cut it up and installed it.

thank you everyone for your great comments. i try to produce the best product i can each time i customize

HHR-i believe the color is called royal blue.

IMO, the sword is a bit too short...

But overall, great work!

its actually a little longer in person. the pic is on an angle and disguises about a 1/4 inch of it.

prime is up for grabs if anyone here is interested.

Now the front bumpers are metallic. Just as it should be.
