I think painting him light grey instead of white would make your Magnus a little more unique. The different shades of blues adds to that also, I like how the paler blue contrasts with the deeper blue in vehicle mode.

Well i guess not as much as you sammi, but we got like one inch at the most this year and didnt even havee a snow day =( meh. Anyways, i think light grey would make magnus unique but wouldnt be too magnus-"y". It would then just truly be a whiter version repaint of Optimus.

I did this for the LOC version, but he doesn't have a white cab at all.. I did an angled stripe that starts just behind the arms and ends up around the back, so that in bot mode he has a red abdomen like the original UM. made the lightbar white so that in bot mode they kinda represented his tall white shoulders... but you don't want a blue cab so I can't help ya I dont' guess. Its in the gallery though if you want to look at it for possibly any ideas.

Not a big update, but it is underway. I already made a mistake--I accidentily painted the bottom leg white, when I had intended it to be blue, but now it kinda works, following the Gen-1 color bit, where his trailer came in to make his feet, well, now his cannon add ons, and the super mode feet will be blue, and come in to do the same..Kinda a happy accident. I'll need another coat on the white, as some of the red is still working through making them pink, instead of solid white.
