Another custom for a buddy....he will apply the decals upon receiving the item. For now...we got to use our imagination. ;-)

I wanted to break up the red...so I went with a python pattern down the center.

Yeah this is nice. Best thing Hasbro did was drop the price. There's a lot of cool customs out of that. I really like this one!

As cool as that is in Crimson, it's even cooler with the Python stripe. Nice touch.

That is great work.

Looks just like it is from the store, or even better than that.

Wow...I usually hate 'crimson customs' (most just seem to be direct repaints sloppily done with bad spray paint) but this one looks great! First off, the paint you used looks factory-quality. Second, that python stripe absolutely makes this vehicle. Excellent job.

I'm really liking this Apoc. The stripe was brilliant!

Darko- If you have never seen Apoc's work in person, you would not understand he is the master of the spray can. ;-)

I can't really add anything to this thread. I'll just throw in a "times 10" to everything everyone else already said.

Really cool!

Delurking just to say two things:

Excellent job, can we ask what type of paints (brand, spray paint, etc?) were used?

AND:

The red cab just proves someone needs to make an Optimus Prime out of one of these.

Thanks for the feedback fellas!!! Glad it was well received...I wasn't sure at first how the pp stripe would look when done, but I knew all red was going to be way too plain and it needed to be broken up somehow.

As for the paint used:
Walmart Color Place brand Royal Red
Walmart Color Place brand Gloss Black for the pattern (was done over the stock gray color)
Krylon Matte Clear Coat

I know alot of people love Krlyon Fusion (and I do at times also)...but I find the thinner walmart brand paint puts a nice clean finish on also. It takes a couple of coats to do so...but as the can states: several light coats produces the best finish.
