Wow, now he is lookin sharp. I like your idea of making Stepper a Police bot. It's always cool to give a custom your own spin. I think a black visor would look great on him, but maybe clear black like sunglasses or whatever. And if you do that you should strip to tint off his current miss matched windows and paint them clear black too (unless Silverstreak's windshield is blue plastic I have only striped the paint off of a Prowl). I could digibash the black on for you if you want me to later.

p.s. Where did you get that casted head! I'd love to have one cause it's awesome.

LOVE the gold detailing so far.

REALLY love that there's at least ONE other person that remembers the character's name is actually STEPPER!

And given him being likely related to jazz, his original deco, and even his original name, I REALLY doubt Stepper was the kind of cat that would have ever been a cop. De-Police that thing, FAST!

PM Me if you're looking for work!

Yeah I actually went with painting the visor more of a gloss black since that pic and made all the wheels that bronze color too. I noticed the mis-matched windows and decided to go the all black car route so I used windows/doors from Silverstreak and kept them blue so it would match the windshield.

The more I thought about the name I feel like Ricochet would fit a police car a lot more so I may do another one and keep the police car motif

See that's what I was thinking. I kind of see a guy named Stepper to be a breakdancer type with a high level of skill and dedication put in everything he does, which he would do his own way and take pride is his individuality. As I said above I think the name Ricochet fits a cop better so I'll probably do another one with different colors.

Thanks for the kind words so far guys. I'll try to throw more pics up today or tomorrow.

This is turning out great man! I have to find me one of those heads and try this myself.

There is one thing driving me crazy though. It's the rear windows. They've got somewhat of a brown tint to them. I believe that's the factory paint if I'm not mistaken. I'd say paint them black and call it a day cause this bad boy looks great!

Different type of car, and different colours, but for some reason he makes me think of Clampdown, from the E-Hobby Clampdown and Deepcover pairing, the 2 G1 Sideswipe repaints that came out a few years ago.
