    Hey Gang! Here's my take on the Onyx Primal that was shown off with the Botcon 2017 prototypes. He's just a repaint of the Mindwipe figure, and I used the Triggerhappy titanmaster instead of Sentinel Prime (simply because that's who I had available). I based the colors on one of the concept images that looked more Black and Silver instead of the Black and White from the physical prototype. Let me know what you think, and thanks for taking a look!

    The paint sprayed on just fine, the rubbery stuff took a bit longer to dry, had to use clear coat on them in order to get rid of the stickiness

    Nice! Big fan of Onyx Primal/Nemesis Primal as a character concept. You did good here. The silver was an inspired choice -- much better than the original white, and works well with the gold and black.
