    Hey Guys,

    So I am working on a custom minerva. I try to make customs with minimal serious alterations possible. I just finished Hosehead using LG-EX Cab Titan Master with a POTP Inferno, a 3D Printed titanmaster adapter and the rest with Toyhax labels.

    Now I'm doing Minerva. I have the titanmaster from LG-EX God Ginrai, and my original plan is a TR Breakaway with ToyHax Conversion labels. However as I looked at Breakaway with the Minerva Titanmaster head on, I noticed that ultimately the body is way too masculine for such a fem bot.

    I can get a titan adapter for CW figures. I'm trying to decide if I want to use a CW First Aid for a more ambulance look, a CW Streetwise/Prowl for a look that has a chest piece that can be 3D Printed and painted, OR get a TR Hot Rod and do a full repaint. I've seen a First Aid done before and while the body can be feminine, I think the Hot Rod is a better pick but I really dont wanna do much painting.

    What do you guys think?

    I'd personally go for the TR Hot Rod repaint. It sounds by far the most interesting. Although I personally have never been particularly for making the fembots overly feminine.

    thats what I'm thinking. It has the more feminine build. But now I think about it, her hood is white, and her chest is red. Hotrod TRs chest is red and the same as his hood. So now I dont think Hotrod would work.

    Interpretations. Not everything has to be exact. That's the fun of it for me.

    You can get a new chest for the getaway mold to look like Minerva. That’s what I did for mine.

    I used the TLK/SS Cogman for mine. His body is actually really feminine looking.

    Pardon my amateur painting skills, of course.
