    These 2 have been an ongoing WIP for years (however long since they hit the shelves)

    I did quite a bit of partswapping and a few mods, so here they are!

    I really like Ironhide's double guns and how you did Ratchet's wrench. I like that shade of blue you used for Ironhide's windows . . . I'd love to see you paint the rest that same color. The black outline on Ironhide's grill is a bit stark, and you may want to consider removing the headlight covers and painting underneath them for a "light" color. I did the same parts swap on the bumpers with my Ironhide and Ratchet, and it looks SO much better!

    Great work :thumb

    They look good but in my opinion, I think the stripes on both Ironhide and Ratchet need to be thinned down just a bit. If I were you I would use an airbrush ans tape off the area you want to paint.
