Not just another Optimus Prime repaint. However, it is a 'Prime' repaint, from the much acclaimed Dark Of The Moon Leader Class Sentinel Prime! Taking cues from Robots In Disguise Ultra Magnus and Animated Ultra Magnus, customizer autobotx23 has transformed Sentinel Prime into the formidable blue and white warrior! Armed with a hammer and a deadly cannon, this figure's set to eliminate all of his Decepticon foes! You'll find more images of the figure, and how autobotx23 made Magnus, in the thread!

And what do you know? The figure's on Ebay too!

I have to say, especially since Magnus is my favorite TF of all time, that this is a beautiful figure. If I could afford it I would have this guy make me one of these.... :APPLAUSE:

Can't say enough about how beautiful it is.

FRICKIN AMAZING !!! This guy deserves to be a Masterclass !!! Awesome work on the hammer and the gun and I love how you make the shield become a cool looking chestplate

. Not a big fan of the head but it looks cooler than Sentinel Prime's headsculpt.

HUGE THUMBS UP ! I wish I have your talent...Even if it's just 10% of it xP.

Greatest one I've seen so far!
Sentinel's mold is perfect for this!
I'll spam this last part on every masterclass!
You guys need your own private museum!
As for the head, it looks like it was sculpted using an ironhide head? it looks awesome!
:MAX2:

now it isn't anything that hasn't been said before for your custom but,
UTTTER BRELLIANCE!!!
WONDERFULLY DONE!!!
it is a VERY impressive custom by all means by far.

i have but 1 question i would like to ask if it won't bother you too much and that is: what paints do you use for the metal sufaces and how do you paint on that ''metal wear''?

Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be able to deal with that now, shall possess the power of Ultra Magnus!

Nicely done!

Its cool ill give it that, but WAAAY too much Transformers Animated influence on this guy, it needs to be re-done in a different frame of mind. Perhaps a Dark Sen Prime all in black with some silver?

Sentinel Prime was originally going to be Ultra Magnus, but the the name was changed because Ultra Magnus is a fan-favorite and he couldn't be made a traitor. Not ruining Ultra Magnus's name is one of the best decisions that was made in making the 3 movies. Plus, I don't think Magnus could have dealt with betraying the Autobots. :lol:

I really enjoy the creativity, and the paint scheme rocks! The only thing I would suggest when painting transformers with windows is to paint the inside of the windows rather than the outside . This technique will give your custom a more realistic feel and a glossy look as opposed to flat. Otherwise fantastic job! Thumbs up!

Wow. I love it! Out of interest, can the weapons be stored in vehicle mode? And is it for sale?

I'm glad I've held off on painting my custom's windows for so long because I couldn't figure out how to keep the gloss but still color them. Thanx.

On topic:

This Ultra Magnus rocks so much and real hard. I showed my wife the figure and she couldn't guess what figure you used for a base. I told her Sentinel Prime and she was like, "Really?" Grand job, sir!
