ok, so the basic cc face doesn't scream sg op to me. but this op plate from the kit isn't mean enough either. so, how can i make this meaner?
hmmmmm, maybe. i wouldn't mind him have teeth on each side of the front plate though. should i lose the black?
The black just doesnt do it for me. When I did my alternators version I uses Model Masters Panzer Grey. Its a close match to the the grey on the original SG and didnt go on too glossy, and dry brushed it lightly with a fan type brush to give it a worn look heres a link so you can see what i did. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/248603-alt-shattered-glass-optimus-prime.html
yeah, the black does seem off. the gray may look better. i just want it to be different than a regular op face. i sent a pic to allen yesterday where i had trimmed down the eyes and drew grimlock like teeth on the sides. i'm going to strip all the paint off it, sand it, and clean it up. i may try lime green eyes.
ok, random question but i can't find the thread or remember who did this so someone help me remember. who did this so i can go to his shapeways store and buy this head for him!
That head there is from the Big Convoy (Beast Wars Neo JPN)figure. We had him released state-side in the Universe line a few years ago. I think he was sold as Nemesis Prime in the black coloring. If you're looking for those pikes on his feet I believe those are from Warhammer 40k miniatures. ~Z
i know what the head is, but thanks, i'm trying to find who made the custom because he made the head available in his shapeways store. i had saved the pics but don't remember who it was. i have both nemisis and regular big convoys, i don't want to use their head when i can just buy one.
I FOUND IT!!!! Cashanova did it. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/221259-nemesis-prime-less-like-magnus.html
i just striped the paint off and now his entire face is gray. it's cool. not exactly want i wanted but i like it. it has red eyes but i think i'm going lime green.
perhaps have the gundam faceplate and one of the eyes squinted and the other angry to show SG op's craziness?
