    Well I wanted to do a DOTM: Nemesis Prime, but did not want to use OP, so why not use the Megatron mold, do something different.

    - DOTM Optimus head, added some "battle damage".
    - Chopped the fingers back.
    - New smoke stacks.
    - Added a new MACK dog on the hood.
    - Placards "1863" jet fuel added to the sides of the tank and rear bumper.
    - Weathering/rust effects.
    - Painted in lacquers and dullcote.

    Rest of the gallery can be seen here:

    nice idea, but it looks a bit boring in bot mode... maybe there could be some more details... I think gold details would be nice.

    Great idea of custom and he looks very menacing. Maybe adding another cannon on the other arm will make him look more bulky and Bad-ass! Good work!

    I think this looks amazing. Perfect as is. Don't change it or add redundant stuff.

    It beats all other Nemesis Prime customs so far, imo.

    Very cool considering Megatron's Truck mode was an homage to Nemesis Prime to begin with. Although the legs look a little too light compared to the rest of the figure. Maybe some shading details?

    looks great, really like your rust & weathering effects. Is there a way to mod the cannon to make it into a rifle to further differentiate him from Megatron?

    You know what? I personally am impressed for the very fact that you seen a Nemesis Prime in this mold. It works very well with the new head mold. No one can take that away from you. Very well done!

    I'd like to see him with a tattered rag for a cape, and maybe a sword.

    Killer. Love it. Great idea and execution. Actually I've been wondering if anyone was going to do a straight up Optimus from this mold.

    Hey, you should try swapping in a Megatron head, because with that arm cannon, this could make a really cool Megatron custom! ;) 

    J/K... this guy is really nice, but for some reason I think he needs something more to make him feel more like a "Nemesis Prime", rather than a Megatron with a Prime head. I guess a sword would be pretty epic. Also, strangely enough, I like the idea of this guy getting a cape more than I like Megatron with a cape. Have you tried it with the hood on him?

    The trimmed down hands are cool... I'm definitely going to try that with mine.
