i love the alclad hey ..... looking good man
Nice work. Alclad is finicky stuff but it has a nice chrome finish.
He's done. I finished him off with clear protective coats to the painted areas before reassembly, which was a real mongrel. The mechanisms in the body and back of the figure are ridiculously complex, took a couple of hours to put him back together. I added some G2 symbols I got in the mail as well. Unfortunately, I had to disable the automorph feature that reveals the faction symbol in the robot chest as it was a bit too finicky, so it's glued in place and visible now in both modes.
For the sake of complete disclosure, there are a few scratch marks from unavoidable rub points in a few spots (especially inside the leg), but they are only visible during transformation, not when Grimlock is fully in bot or alt mode.
So here's a gallery I took this afternoon. If you really like what you see, stick around to the end, I have a little surprise for you...;):cool:

Overall, I've very proud of this custom, he's come out looking great.
So... here's the stinger. He's going up for sale TONIGHT. I've decided to try out a 'dutch auction' format. For details, head over to the salesyard (if you have access, that is) and you might be able to snare this custom for your own collection!
Fantastic work on him!
