Devastation Cell Shaded MasterPiece BumbleBee

[illusn]

Hi All, a quick and sneaky post that's going to get me into trouble, but is far too good not to share :)
My gorgeous wife is one hell of an artists and recently after watching me drool over some of LEK's customs on facebook decided to do her own. She stole my MP-21 KO BumbleBee, stripped him, primed him really lightly with Tamiya white primer and got to work.
This is her first ever transformers custom and these pics are after about 20 hours work over 5 or so days so far she's done alright!
Everything is hand brushed using thinned Tamiya paints will try and update when she's done.

And finished for the night! she still needs to do the gun and the paint on the autobot insignia is still wet but that's a wrap for today. Better photos to come when I break out the SLR.

Sorry, he's still not sealed I'd like to wait a good few weeks (especially in Sydney's Humidity) for the paint to dry HARD before sealing and transforming.


Wow, that looks fantastic!

Thank you!!!
