Arcee what you did there...

[snaketales]

My attempt at a CHUG Arcee. Repainted a DOTM Sideswipe. Alt mode worked out fne, but the head for bot mode is a complete fail. I'm going to have to rethink it. It looks like the Joker at the moment :mad: I might try a Perceptor or Astrotrain head. Any suggestions welcome.
I am happy with how the torso and thighs worked out. The lower legs are still movie-esque but I reckon when it's on a shelf they won't be noticeable.

That's works better than I'd have expected, but the lipstick is a little off!
(Might add her to my fan group of Sideswipe repaints ;) )

Optimus - "Hey there cutie"
Sideswipe - "It's me Optimus"
Optimus - "Ummm... Sideswipe??"
Sideswipe - "It's Arcee now"

:D

[Mythirax]

Optimus - "Hey there cutie"
Sideswipe - "It's me Optimus"
Optimus - "Ummm... Sideswipe??"
Sideswipe - "It's Arcee now"

:D

That was gold :D:D

The coloring on the body looks fantastic!

[i_amtrunks]

Colours are perfect and the toy choice was about as good as you can get.

Reminds me of the Binaltech Arcee quite a lot, but you have utilised the pink far better.

[Bidoofdude]

I like the alt mode look and the robot, can't wait to see the improved head. The current one looks very thuggy. (No offence :D)

Optimus - "Hey there cutie"
Sideswipe - "It's me Optimus"

Sideswipe - "It's Arcee now"

Arcee looks great! Perfect colour scheme.

[AJ_Prime]

Wow, the colour scheme works really well man, good job.

[Tetsuwan Convoy]

Vehicle mode looks saweet. Works so much better than I thought when I clicked that link. I reckon an Astrotrain head would do the trick. Giver her boofy 'hair' a decent look.

Optimus - "Hey there cutie"
Sideswipe - "It's me Optimus"

Sideswipe - "It's Arcee now"

:D

Sideswipe came from Hasbro, USA.
Hitch-hiked his way across to my junk pile, hey?.
Dremeled his arms on the way
Painted his legs and then he was a she
Arcee says, "Hey, Prime,
Take a walk on the wild side."
Said, "Hey, Roddy,
Take a walk on the wild side."

Little Arcee never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
Autobot City's the place
Where they said, "Hey, Prime,
Take a walk on the wild side."
I said, "Hey, Ultra,
Take a walk on the wild side."

And the minicons go
"Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."

[Deonasis]

^ great song that :D

Also, how about Energon Arcee's head.. https://imageshack.com/i/jydscn0238jj
It looks to be quite big for the basic mold in the link here, like it were actually deluxe sized.

[Hursticon]

Hehe, without the absurd back kibble the figure kinda works well for a Fembot - Nice work! :D

[snaketales]

The dead thread shall rise!
I'd forgotten this was meant to be a CHUG Arcee and thought it was a movie custom... :o
I gave up on finding a deluxe -sized head and used a cybertron Arcee scout heads. And I don't think it looks too bad.

Wow looks awesome especially with the new head

[DarkHyren]

The new head is a huge improvement on bot mode, makes her look more like Arcee and less like Sideswipe in drag. Good job :)

[BigTransformerTrev]

I just love the thread title :D

[UltraMarginal]

I just love the thread title :D

me too!

I really like the new head as well Snaketails. overall an impressive effort making the figure look nothing like the original.

[Jaxius._]

WOAH that is awesome.

[snaketales]

I just love the thread title :D
