Been working on this off and on for a couple of months. It's a composite of the Hasbro Sidearm Sideswipe and the blue repaint from DOTM (mostly just the blue windows taken from it). The whole thing was stripped of flames and the original silver and completely done over and detail painted to make it look like the CGI render on my calendar.
It's 97% complete. Still need to paint the guns and work out something for swords. But, he looks like what he was going to look like, so it's posting time.
Painted many of the molded details to bring them out (especially on the arms). Also took the wheels off and painted the brake pads. I point that out because I think it turned out nice.
