Thanks, all.
For the paint- I sprayed him black. Then drybrushed with silver. Then used clear colors for the rest. LOVE using the clear paints when I can.

WOW I would have never thought to make a joe sized Optimus. Awesome as always J.

I am so sick of you and Dan stealing my ideas.
Nice paint job.

Sweet. The Inking may be a little heavy, but it's a great looking custom and a really cool concept. I recommend the guns that come with the modern "The Corps!" figures. They look like laser/pulse weapons.

I thought the inking was heavy at first blush, but I just look at it as machine oil. :-)

Now I can't wait for everyone to get a look at Chief's version. :-D

(And his was already done before I posted mine. Not that I knew he did one till I posted mine.)

vert sweet...IM Prime looks great, I don't care for the halo figure with the prime head though, eventhough you were just showing the size for Chief....That'd be great if you made some more especially hot rod.
Like I said at trigate I do think the hands are too big but otherwise another winning custom from one of my favorite customizers :-D

That came out far better, than I would have thought. I'm so glad you changed out those crap original hands. I'm currently making something from that same base figure, and the hands are driving me nuts.

Thanks for all the great feedback.
And since one custom a day isn't enough, I just finished a second- that I will show tomorrow. But I'll give a hint. His favorite saying is . . .

Great concept. Very nice match of parts as well.

I would have never thought to do this, or that the outcome would work...

you nailed it, John!

and now I have an idea for the exrtra iron man(s) in my collection!

very cool!
