Made from a BiS Rodimus with the canopy removed and the engine ground down, with the addition of an original Hurricane head. The head cavity had to be enlarged a bit to accommodate the new head.
His chest emblem is made from clear plastic used in Transformers toys packaging (and boy was it a pain to cut). The windscreen was from a plastic tray of pastries from Woolies.

Top job with a brilliant idea for the base model. I like the idea to use translucent plastic rather than paint for the hood deco and the smaller windshield suits the figure very well.

Thanks for the replies everyone - replaced the robot mode pic.

SMHF: it's not too bad; problem areas are the elbows and those damn chest sliders. :mad: The arms were hard enough to pull out before painting. I've loosened the chest as much as I can, but I wouldn't want to transform him too often.
