    This is a Custom MP Skywarp using TRU MP Sunstorm. I'm still waiting on decal (decepticon logo) from chimungmung. Its my first time painting a Masterpiece figure and it was a great experience. Kudos to the customizers who have repainted this mold before. I'll post alt mode pics once I got the decal. Thanks for looking.

    Really loving the shade of purple you used, is it a custom mix? Looks factory..... actually better than factory.

    I absolutely love this mate!! Tremendous work! Great fun this mold to paint, but time consuming and certainly difficult. Wonderful job you've done.

    Yes its custom mix of tamiya purple and chrome silver, Thanks.:) 

    Thanks a lot.:) 

    Thank you.:) 

    Your work on Mp Seekers inspires me to try this mold, and yes this figure is a little hard to paint, it requires patience. Thanks for the compliment.:) 

    Thank you so much.:)

    Very nice :D  On mine, I cheated and used MP-03 Skywarp's thighs and knee joints so I didn't have to paint those :lol  Of course it required a little bit of shaving on one side of the knee joints so it would function.

    I can't wait to see the alt mode pics. This is perhaps one of my favs that I painted up. I like how you also painted the tailfins purple for that G1 toon look :thumb

    Excellent! I'm curious,what about it did you find hard to deal with? I have the same mold and plan on repainting him down the road. It will be my first MP as well.

    This came out very nice indeed. MP Seekers need all the love they can get. Can't get enough of everyone's take on these guys. Keep it up!

    That looks fantastic! That purple rocks and everything is so clean and sharp. The Sunstorm canopy really works well with Skywarp's colors as well. Great job!

    Why not, lol! Thanks.:) 
    I think what I mean is the preparation, you really have to sand down some rub spot like the thighs, and some parts of the figure. good luck and thanks.:) 
    Thank you so much.:) 

    Thanks a lot:) 
    Thanks you:)
