Found a tutorial online for removing the roof parts I didn't want. Tried to do a clean job cutting and think it turned out ok. Added screws to extend his smokestacks and then added sculpt (both above and below original stacks) to even them out. Did a little touch up paint and removed most of the battle damage. Added the Autobot logo via a paper printout decoupage. I haven't gotten an Earthrise Prime yet, but this will do for now. Actually, don't know if I want to drop the cash for an Earthrise Prime now. Enjoy!
Awesome work! As soon as I found out you could cut the roof of the truck mode without damaging the transformation, I had done the same thing, but yours looks much cleaner than mine. The smoke stacks are also really nice looking, great job on this!
less kibble looks much better. but give in and get er prime anyway they can be friends. got mine for 70 dhipped on ebay fourteen extra dollars to avoid going out is nothing right now
Great work on your mod. However, at this juncture, this Prime looks no different than the other 1000 G1 Prime toys out there. Why spend the extra effort when you may purchase a G1 Optimus from the get go these days? Every Prime figure doesn't need to look the same....
