In case you missed it a few weeks ago here:
WIP Thread, Megatron is now finished!
There are a few minor imperfections, some parts don't line up as perfectly as I'd like(ie the doors, but really, I'm ok with it), and somewhere along the lines, I got a little black smudge on the driver side rear that I didn't want to have to repaint the whole piece to achieve a good color match. Plus a little piece of the metal Nissan logo had broken off and got lost(Waaah!).
However, I'm totally, 120% pleased with it! The re-shell process(my first successful one) went totally smooth thanks to Prowls simple transformation, and he's pretty much as strong and sturdy as the original figure.
Colors are the official Skyline colors, the main being Tamiya's gloss aluminum. I did make one minor mod tho, the seats are supposed to only have a red stripe in the center, but I like the all red. Also the windows are tinted using Tamiya's Smoke spraypaint.
Those familiar with the Skyline will notice that Megatron does sit higher than the car should. That was a side effect of the reshell process, but I like it, makes the care look more aggresive.
Guess that's enough talk, on with the pics! There's about 20 of them.

Stupid smudge!
