Just finished this model kit of Optimus.
Fiddled with the paints to give him a bit of the "Last Knight" look.
What do you think? :)

Looks is better than the masterpiece and this is what I am talking about.
A masterpiece has to look beautiful and not an action fig.

Thanks guys :)
I've got Prime now placed on my office desk...
Could probably have done a bit more with a dirt finish but I think I've had enough of building a kit bot...
Really admire folks who do Gundam kits as it is so very time consuming...

Looks absolutely amazing. Model building of any kind is time consuming to get the best results. I'm finding that out myself, I'm nearly finished with my first go at airbrushing, on my second Gundam kit. My next challenge is to try the weathering details.

Thanks.
I've yet to invest in an airbrush... would really love to but I know it'll end up sitting in the shed.
So much to do but so little time :(
Do share your Gundam creations... would love to see em.

I've seen some well painted movie Optimus Prime toys done by other customizers... they've got real potential to be really beautiful when painted well :)
