    Decided to do a custom paint of Optimus Prime on my own. Inspired by the fans who customize here... You guys are awesome... I love you guys... :D 

    Mine is still not half as good as the pros here. Well, here you go.

    Crits and comments are welcome... Thanks...

    Well this is very clean paintwork for someone who'e new to the hobby. Good eye for the small details, too.

    Great job! I hope to see you post more of your work here. :)

    Looks great! But one critique though, you should hve painted the windows around the doors on his chest. :)  that's the only thing that I see that could be fixed though, everything else is awesome!

    you inspire me to do a repaint on my ROTF leader OP :)  but I am still scared-- I need more practice :) 

    and I thinki keeping the windows paint free is a good idea... your work looks really clean :)

    i think you shouldnt put yourself down, this is an excellent repaint, 2 minor points (i mean minor) i agree with mampy but also theres some gold detailing on the head that i cant see if youve done on not otherwise its very nice, everyone seems to be finishing theres alot quicker then mine lol, nevermind ill take my time just hope its worth it
