Excellent work. Good use of the articulated fists from the first Leader Prime, and the removable blades and gun all look superb. Great paintjob, you've really caught the look of the film, with regard to the truck mode looking fairly clean, but the bot mode having wear and tear.

Hey mamps, I know I'm starting to be a big pain in the ass but, what do you use for a top coat thing so that the paint doesnt come off? How did you apply it? spray? or brush? I noticed the silver on my prime comes off

and what did you use to cut off the part's from ROTF and TFTM primes?

Did you took apart the knees and the shoulders before painting it? If so, is it hard to put ir back? I'm afraid I might mess up the ratchet joints and can't put it back together.

Thanks man! That was exactly what I was going for. A lot of the repaints look kinda plain with the bot mode really clean and shiny when the CG models have all sorts of nicks and paint chips.

Haha no problem. I generally use Future Floor polish (Pledge Wipe n' Shine) in the Philippines as my clearcoat. I brush it on. For the pinstripes I used RJ London clear lacquer spray.

Err a dremel tool would be ideal, but I used wire cutters and an X-acto knife. They worked pretty well for me.

Thanks man! Your Prime looks great as well.

I used this kind of pen. Yeah, I painted the windshield with clear smoke gray acrylic. I wanted to give it a translucent medium tint but it came out darker than I planned.

I'm flattered that you think so. Thanks!

I actually didn't paint the blue parts. It's the stock plastic with multiple layers of clear coat for that shiny look.

Yup I did. It's pretty easy to put back together, just make sure to keep the internal parts taped up and safe while you're painting.
