    hey you guys this is finished but i havent posted final pics yet but anyway here are a few kinda bad quality images of my custom. For this custom i used parts from deluxe class sideways, leader class jetfire, and i used leader class optimus prime for a base. The story on how i started this custom is pretty simple, i took kibble off of jetfire and added it on prime, prime , in my eyes, looked cool! so i decided to just destroy jetfire and make a kinda movie acurate powered up prime. he doesnt have much articulation. to attach the pieces onto prime all i used was a hot glue gun and like 40 sticks of glue for the gun. here are a few pictures of w.i.p. some pics show parts that the others dont becuz i was trying out putting parts in diffrent places. please leave feedback on what i can do better, just keep in mind that im only 14 so this isnt the greatest custom. thanks for looking! sorry for the pictures being sideways i couldnt fix it.

    I think it would look better if you the torso was not as long...

    and the fact that your 14 has nothing to do with art my man...it just depends on how much time you have put into customs. I always hated when someone that I couldn't do something or that I should get a special treatment because of my age(when I was younger)...

    I think this is off to a great start...I would like to see it finished and for you to have a killer Power-Up Prime.

    Thanks encline, i love your customs, yeah i need to shorten the torso and make the legs bigger some how, i just need to find some parts that match the color and style.

    to all three you- thanks its people like you three that inspire others to keep making customs. :)

    Great work man!

    The size is awesome. Your age is not a factor. It is simply a matter of imagination, time, and execution. You have all three in this guy and it looks awesome. You should be really proud of this.

    My only addition would be a bit in line with Encline. The torso is a bit long and lanky. I would try to add some bulk to the mid section and legs. Either using Gundam parts or some scratch built stuff. Other than that....Can I has? :D
