    Seeing as my original thread ([WIP] Shadow Prime - TFW2005 - The 2005 Boards) couldn't be moved, I'm making another one... with a story!

    [​IMG]
    Originally following my digibash which went by the name of "Shadow Prime", he was supposed to be a (mythical) Diaclone truck, however, I ran into problems with taking apart his head, and I broke the way his mouth guard attached to his face. I then was going to make a battle damaged Shadow Prime, then two days ago (after almost two years of doing ZERO work on him) I resumed work, and the story behind "The Forgotten One" popped into my head.

    I didn't like my original idea for a battle damaged face, so I made the new mouth guard out of 5 minute epoxy putty.

    I'll get to the arms eventually, haha, its been a WIP since 2007 I'm not even sure if I have all the screws.

    Although I'm thinking of leaving out the cape... what do you guys think?

    So, he's two guys at once-his old spark as Megatron, and his old body as Alpha Prime? Awesome! The head looks ver "Fallen-esque" as well.


    Is Fallen-esque even a word?

    He looks great so far! I love the "Fallen-esque" Football helmet-looking mouth guard. -And the black/gold color scheme is unique enough to differentiate him from the 'normal' Nemeis Primes...

    I do think that a tattered, blood red/burgandy cape would do him wonders though...

    Epic, on a PRIMUS level. That is this in a nutshell.
