What Colour Should i use for a death of Optimus MP1

[lancalot]

Hi, im thinking of doing a Death Optimus MP1 as i got a few spare parts and would like your ideas on this.....I got a MP1 missing a left leg , So my question would be should i leave him in the original colours .(red and blue etc....or make him a black and grey one?... There also a zombie direction i can take as well...or any other ideas?...

Awesome idea! i like the sound of Zombie Prime, although i'm not sure i've seen a one legged zom be effective in any movie. They don't seem to hop too well.
seen plenty of one armed ones.
He could maybe have a mutated leg, maybe been infected with a virus.

Cyber-T-Virus Prime
Pirate Prime
Mer-Prime
Centaur-Prime. if you can find half a horse ^< or half a fish
Angry old man, War Veteran Prime

As for colour, i'm always a fan of black and grey, but a zombie could retain some very washed out blues and reds. and dead, dead eyes,,,, it's all in the eyes.
I'm sure whatever you decide will be great.

Black and white. I'm a sucker for the '86 movie.

Would you go with a dark energon look maybe, with some lurid purple visible between panels and a picture of dark unicron on the flip up intercom panel on his arm. You could also remove one of his arms, glue his ion cannon onto the hand and use that as a leg (saw that in a movie once).

Considering that the spare MP01 you have is missing a leg, I'd go for the zombie look.

Hey that pretty cool....i actually got two spare extra arms as well..just no leg.. ...make him like a mutant dark energon zombie !

The other thing that would make me not want to see it done in black and white is that it's already been done (MP Convoy Sleep Mode). Even if it's a limited exclusive, it's been done. Zombie on the other hand would be something truly unique.

I look forward to seeing the final result, whichever colour scheme you choose

I voted Zombie. Even something along the lines of him being consumed by The Swarm back in the day. No doubt it'll be awesome whichever way you go
