    - Repainted everything red and then some
    - Repainted greys metallic
    - Attempted chrome looking grills and fender, tanks and smokestacks... but ended up looking like all the other metallic grey stuff.
    - White accents in G1 scheme
    - Accented rivets and things with silver

    Still need to get some Autobot Emblems. May need to hit up Reprolabels. Still need to do wheel wells

    I don't care for the white or that you left the wheel hubs black, but everything else is very nice. It's nice to see a crisp, clean, shiny paint job.

    Hope that doesn't come off as too negative.

    Given what look he was going for I think the white is appropriate. Do agree about the wheels though, but I blame Hasbro for those.

    I get it, I just don't care for it, personally. The rest of it is cherry, though.

    Looks just perfect imo. The wheels - personally I like them black. But if you do change them... they ought to be chrome, not just some dull silver paint.

    Updated the main shots. Added Autobot Symbol and have done a bit of cleanup work on the paint job. Will add newer Truck mode shots shortly.
