This is a commissioned piece I just finished up. The client wanted a more cartoon styled Skywarp. I swapped the head w/ MP Starscream, because the client also wanted the "smirk" alternate face.

I also modified the tail sections of his jet mode to sit on the lower legs (and shortened them up past the tail fins so he could still stand fine while in robot mode)

All factory paint apps were removed and he was base coated with lacquers (matte) mainly House of Kolors paints. Details done in Testor's Model Master enamels.

not that bad at all. there are hardly any. Maybe the insides of the shoulders, but it's very minimal. Thanks!

Awesome. I'm really blown away by your work.

Brand new here and still sifting through the site. Lots of great stuff making me want to spend money.

Now that's awesome. That tailfin mod just makes the figure look so much better.

So, if he was already "Masterpiece", and you certainly improved him, what is he now?

Again. Looks awesome.

The hip mod, is there a tutorial somewhere? I think I saw one but it looked kind of complicated.
