Hello, peoples of Seibertron.com. I am ZeltraxMillenium or as my normal name Jessie Elias.

I have been a Transformers fan for a while now and have now taken up customizing as both a hobby and a little business to get some extra cash.

As my first post in this forum, I present to you all...

My custom Transformers Animated

Hot-Shot!

Pretty much everyone knows about TFA HotShot never getting a toy so, I'm not gonna step on an open wound too much.

The materials I used were the following/while I listen to Beast Wars's 3rd season opening theme from Japan:

Base Figure:
TFA BumbleBee

Krylon paints:
Krylon Sun Yellow, Krylon Red, Krylon Black, and Krylon Blue.

Games-Workshop paints:
Enchanted Blue, Ultramarine Blue, Shining Gold, Mithril Silver, and Adeptus Battle-Grey.

I finally used self-hardening clay and a dremol/because I used a little too much clay in order to make the toy roll around while in car mode. I also used a pyramid-shaped attachment on my dremol to make a hole in BB's arms in order to make the boosters fit on his arms. This does leave holes in the sides of the car mode, but I use the boosters to cover them up.

I didn't enter this into a contest at Botcon 2011 but I did get A LOT of positive reviews from Optibotimus, Sean Long, and I think even Vangelus himself.

Hope you like the custom and check me out on YouTube where all my videos have links to my FaceBook and Twitter accounts: http://www.youtube.com/user/ZeltraxMillenium

If anyone wants me to customize something for them, I'll do it for cheap around 5 to 20 bucks depending on the size of the job.
