War for Cybertron Cliffjumper was made from a WFC Bumblebee with a retooled head to better represent cliffjumper, custom gun to replace the small one, can be attached in both bot and car modes. Added oil effects to the blades along with some battle scrapes and articulated hands. bugger took a long time to paint, these WFC figures have a lot of nooks and crannies.

Overall I like this but I would have to suggest a different secondary color than yellow. It takes from the Cliffjumper feel to me somehow.
Its probably just me but the chest scratches seem to take from the aerodynamic feel of the car mode too.
Otherwise nice paintjob and I like the glowy dark blades!

thanks for the suggestions, I went with the yellow to better represent what he looks like in the WFC game on the DS (they are yellow there)

Pretty neat! I like the red it looks like it was moulded that way. I haven't gotten around to modding the cj head but that's what I was gonna do lol. I haven't seen the ds version of him so I guess I can't suggest a better secondary color. I'm really diggin the blades too. Good job man!

Nice job, I thinks he matches the look in the DS game pretty well.

Oh I never played the DS game and didn't know he was in it. I guess that makes sense then. :)

Its really Nice, but you should have left out the scrapes, and not drybrushed the Gatling gun. Should have painted it gunmetal and given a black wash

i agree totally on the yellow bits... but nice job over all... what hands did you use to swap out with? they look amazing.

Again, the yellow was used to better reflect the DS version of cliffy, (seen Here)

Next time I think I will go with maroon for the highlights and just do the wheels in black and silver, making him more G1 accurate, the hands are from a 1/100 gundam, I didn't have to do much to make them fit, but they made a big difference in the final product
