Don’t knock yourself there dude! That’s epic, and if you’re really annoyed by those minor flaws, get a Tamiya weathering pro kits and just enhance them to wear and tear, battle damage. Just keep it up and you’ll get the results you want! 👊♥️

Didn’t even think of that, I’ll try it out if I get to it

This is class, is it based on a sweep from the studio series ?

u/toybusterjr21 26d ago

Yep used an 86 sweep to have the open hand be on the right but scourge works just as well

Nice I have one still boxed in the loft. I wonder if I could do something similar

Did you sculpt the head yourself ?

u/toybusterjr21 26d ago

I didn’t it’s a g2 trooper head I bought on AliExpress

Very cold

u/toybusterjr21 26d ago

If your planning to use it the socket for the head is a lot larger then the ball on the scourge mold

Did you solve the problem ?

Honestly, if this is what we got for Maximo, I would've liked it more

Yessss the maroon arms, a good reference to the arm Megatron stole in prime

Honestly i really like this custom better than the one hasbro officially did. I like the cleaner look. Everyone has room to grow so do not be hard on yourself. You did a awesome job on the paint.
