    After pre-ordering Transformers Devastation last month. I felt inspired to do this custom. Given, I already had a Titan Class Devastator on display. I decided to give it go.

    Instead of doing a full overhaul, strip and repaint of the figure, Titan Class Devastator was customized with the subtle nudge you see here to make him more awesome.

    Modification Paint Details:

    Finished Figure off in a multiple Matte Coats to reduce shine of plastic to give more cartoon look
    Painted MixMaster Combined Mode Foot
    Painted in all vehicle wheels’ rims/hubcaps
    Painted Devastator’s crotch armor green (original figure has it purple)
    Painted Devastator’s hips to Purple (original figure was silver)
    Painted Combined mode knee joints (original was unpainted green)
    Stripped chest armor paint so it is mostly purple
    Added cell shaded details to:
    Devastator’s combined mode forearms
    Devastator’s combined mode rifle
    Devastator’s combined mode hands
    Devastator’s combined mode chest armor
    Devastator’s combined mode head
    Long Haul’s front grill
    Devastator’s combined mode vents on crotch and chest armor

    This custom is also up for auction, link can be found in my signature.
    More info/pics/customs can be found on my website, link in my sig as well.

    I like how you were able to get the cel shading effect on the arms and chestplate.

    Not sure how, but I like it.

    What color paint and shade of purple did you use? I like how the hands turned out compared to the stock purple parts.

    I like it. Looks better than mine.

    I don't like the "reflection"/"cel shadding" effet, but overall superb work.

    I love the amount of restraint here.

    A lot of the cel-shading is there but subtle enough to where it doesn't overtake the rest of the figure by not doing it on every piece, making it very eye pleasing.

    Great job!

    It's beautiful.

    I do like that you didn't go full shading on the green, but I wonder how it would have looked with some very subtle panel lining in a darker green.
