    It's different because of the paint style I am using to paint him and I guess the color scheme too (no flames, sorry guys). This one has been a long WIP coming. Looks kind of funky, yes...

    The color scheme looks really like G1 style. Waiting to see the finish product. ^^

    A purely drybrushed ROTF OP? This looks promising. :thumb

    Thanks guys!

    Mampy, it is going to be purely dry brushed definitely. I have another one that has been all air brushed with some dry brushing that I'll be posting up soon. That one is 99% complete where this one is as you can see less then 1/2 way done.

    Solrac, I practiced on some plastic forks before I did the sword :D 

    I'll be posting up more soon, thanks again!

    I'll be looking into that one Hippy.

    UPDATE: Head added in initial post. I couldn't find it anywhere!! I found it just a few minutes ago, it was actually the first piece that I did for this one!

    It's definitely a different take on leader class op. I'm looking forward to seeing the outcome!!!

    UPDATED with more pics - initial post on first page.

    I definitely plan on adding more wear and tear (but on a minimal scale). What you see is not in incomplete in assembly, but also incomplete in total paint apps.
