    I deally, you could use some parts from Swindle, and some from hound ( ?) be cool if they had slightly different shoulders, which could add to the Junkion parts thing for some nice asymmetry going on, yet still being able to retain the transformation.

    That head and chest look great. I have never noticed the detail before this repaint so your colour choices are spot on.

    Nice job! Will you be adding his goatee?

    Although for some reason he's always clean shaven on his official card art...

    But the toy is goatee'd

    Perhaps it was deliberately done to make a 'reverse Wreck-Gar' situation, since G1 Wreck Gar is bearded in canon but beardless on the toy.

    Nice, maybe hit the tires with a top coat and some brown and orange ground up pastel to finish off the weathered look?

    Probably not: I don't think I could get that such small detail, and from what I remember he didn't have one in the comics...so call this the IDW version if it'll help.
