    I cant afford the new MP Prime V3, and I've been enjoying all the G1 Cartoon accuracy love lately. So I was inspired to model up this Optimus Prime and print it out. Modeled in Google Sketchup, Printed with a Printrbot Simple Metal, and Hand Painted with basic acrylics.

    Enjoy!

    Wow, this is amazing for Sketchup. Do you use vanilla Sketchup or do you use add ons? I want to get into 3D modelling but I'm struggling.

    Lots of add ons/extensions. So much so that I am kinda stuck using the 2015 version because It would take me too long to reinstall /find them all again for a newer version.

    Transform Element basically made your 3D printed model a reality.
