    A simple repaint which I put off for a while. Made from the alternity convoy (silver) mold. A lot of cutting to fit the head in when transformed to altmode. Thanks for looking.
    - Generations Drift head
    - Painted in lacquers and clear coated
    - 1/100 Gundam hands
    - Kitana swords scratchbuild, with the guard cut out in the shape of the Autobot logo
    - Water slide decal "samurai" in kanji on the doors
    - Custom license plate drift in katakana
    Rest of the gallery can be seen on my facebook page:

    Very nice man! I was gonna do this a long time ago (except with the fairlady Z Alternity), but instead went with a more movie-esque look for a movieverse Drift. Seeing this, I might just do it after all! Thanks for revitalizing an old inspiration! Well done sir!

    That owns. That body totally works for Drift. Wasn't too much a fan of the original, but this i would pick up. The Autobot Katanas are a great touch. Top Notch Work.

    Very cool idea, when i saw the thumbnail i thought it would be a straight repaint of Alternity Megatron hence megs having the swords and being drift. This mold fits drift much better than megatron would.
