    Found a semi customized Sentinel Prime at TRU for $5 off so figured why not. Decided to see how it would look in RID Scourge colors

    Robots, trains, and sometimes shuttles always look good in black. Fact.

    So... wait, someone partially customized a sentinel prime

    RETURNED it to TRU

    And they were like, "fuck it, let's just sell it at $5 off."
    XD


    Either way, your final result looks nice.

    Nice! My only critiques would be that the shuttle mode needs some windows, and the yellow cockpit is really jarring. I'd say paint it over, or add just enough paint to make red while still being translucent.

    I know black repaints are cliche, but this looks damn good. Excellent job. And I still like the yellow window.

    Looks great, but what do you mean it was, "semi-customised?" Had someone started work on it and returned it?

    Also, could you show the train mode please?

    I reccomend buying some transparent red model paint and painting the inside of the cockpit/window in the red. Thin coats, with a small but wide brush.

    Yep, someone panel lined it. Looked pretty good but they only did half the figure. Made it perfect for customs. I do plan to get some clear red for the canopy, it does look a little out of place. Was letting the paint dry a little more before showing off the train mode. That orange was a bit rough to cover, it's everywhere
