Thumbs up Rodimus Prime ;)

Made a little something while I was bored today. Got the concept from Rodimus Prime, who is a member of the Primes in Transformers, also known as Hot Rod. You can get more info on him here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodimus

It looks pretty cool just that the color on the T/A doesnt match up well. The guy looks more orange than red.

It looks fine. It took a second to figure out the TA front clip...That's funny.

Not bad. The front clip should be bigger though. Looking at it, the front end is just a tad bit bigger than the doors.

Do some more blending and trying to match the paint better...seems like a fun little project!
