HE NOT DONE YET.

But this is as done as he's gonna be until I can find a lightbar that will fit on the Scion. I'm also going to paint some grey on the red shoulder-things to help break up the color, and he needs various cleanings and touch ups here and there, but I'll do that later when I get a lightbar.

I thought I was being clever with the stripes mimicking those heart rate monitor lines, but apparently the movie toy does the same thing. So much for that!

SPECIAL AWESOME THANKS TO SKIDS FOR TRADING THE PROWL HEAD TO ME EIGHT MONTHS AGO :)

Touched him up a bit - added some gray highlights to the red shoulder things, a cross sticker on the chest, and coated the red parts above his ankles again. Now I just need a lightbar.

That's another nice one Clay. The greys work well to balance the paintscheme.
I was going to offer you a barricade light bar, but looking at it again, its way too small to even mod. Still, let me know if you think it might be useful.

G1 rocks!! Don't forget the red cross on his shoulders!

That might work... if you can measure the length and width, I can tell you for sure.

Finally got around to adding stripes to Ironhide to make him look different from Prime, and added a (smallish) lightbar to Ratchet. Thanks to Retread for the part :)
