A buddy of mine has been bugging me for a while to help him figure out how to make a Devcon figure. Well, eventually we decided on Mirage. This is my first significant bash (I don't consider Ironhide from Galaxy Force Deluxe prime, that was just a halfhearted head sculpt and a mediocre repaint)
I should note before I show these pictures that I did not agree with his color choice for the dark blue, and that these pictures were taken before final touchup and varnishing. The dark blue is dye, not paint, but the red, light blue, and the rest are paint.
The engines are actually parts of a pair of pens, and the wings on the arms are actually trimmed off the gun - which, as the pics show, still forms his nosecone. I tried to stay as true to the breif G1 cartoon appearance as I could, despite the dark blue my buddy wanted.
