Well, this is my next project.

I have an optimus protoform and am tuning the body to better fit Arcee. The color scheme is perfect. I used an iredecent pearl WHITE and accented in a metallic pink. I need to find the version 1 TF movie Arcee for the head (best fit IMO) not the purple/black one.

So before I get too into this, I wanted to know if anyone has any good ideas for her!

 

take reguler arcee mix and match with her veihcle mode and paint her what ever her colors were in m.p. # 1

 

I rigged up 2 motorcycle tires under the protoform. in vehicle mode, it looks maybe like a cybertronian motorcycle. I will post more pics when more done. She joins the other 10 that are not complete hayahaaah

 

Oh I gotta see this when its finished.

 

I'd use deluxe Arcee's head as it's basicaly the exact head used in the comics.

 

what version is this? this is the head i need. if it's discontinued or whatever, I will need to scult my own =\

 

the one in the comic and on the deluxe is so damn ugly though

 

it just looks too small

 

I forget where it's originally from (Energon Arcee?), but now it's a Target-exclusive scout class. It originally came out as Scout Class Arcee, but with the deluxe Arcee available, you might have to wait for them to restock with Scout Class Elita-1. Also, since it's a much smaller figure, the head will be too small. It's bad enough that she'll have a masculine protoform. Do you really wanna make her a hulk-bot?

 

Yes, that's the head for Energon Arcee.

 

well, that's the project. I am gong to make the protoform very sexy and thinned down!!! yeah, i checked that head. it's too damn small. Gonna have to make a custom head.

 

here's a VERY rough digi-bash. This is the head style I am gonna aim for.

 

i can see it now: "the TF crying game"

arcee: springer, hotrod.. i got a confession to make...
springer and hotrod: hmmm?
arcee: you see.. i used to be an optimus when i was a protoform... .. so.. who's got the touch?
springer: *points at hotrod

  jk jk

seems like an interesting project. post pics with progress ^_^

- KO

 

There's more to making a fem figure than narrowing the waist. Find some way to narrow the shoulders and widen the hips, and you ought to be good.

 

Oh i know. I been doing scults for 15 years. Be excited.  

she will be the best you'll ever see.

 

ok, here's version 2 to show the color ideas incorporated into the protoform

 

well, I'll have more pics up later this week. It's a WIP and with over 160 views in the first hour of it's post, I can tell it might be interesting  

 

Subbing to keep in touch with the project. Good luck on it. Can't wait to see a finished model.

 

That digibash looks like a winner. Can't wait to see the finished product.

 

I'm going to have to suggest deluxe Arcee's head too. With a slight paint adjustment and removal of the wierd head/hair piece her ead looks a lot better. Plus it'll fit the protoform's size and movie asthetic better.
