Dude that is sick. I am blown away. :eek :eek :eek :eek
hi guys
well im back, not to rest on my laurels,ive started work on primes blaster as promised, the first this i did was to look for some sort of doner gun that i could use, after weeks of scanning the net,i stumbled upon a supersoaker, that was pretty close( i was made up) then i set about building the back of primes gun, this was made from wood and has plenty of angles etc, plus i needed to allow the indents for the vent, once happy with shape,sanded, filled and sprayed in primer, then i ripped up a space blaster i also bought, this has a blaster sounjd effect and flashes when shot too, anyway enough of the chit chat, heres the latest pics guys,
all the very best

I cannot believe it. That is simply the best thing I have ever seen on these forums. Forget Star Trek, Avatar or Star Wars stuff (My usual interests), this is simply the best and greatest, and deserves all the kudos in the forum. This is simply an amazing piece of fabricating mastery and wonder.
I love the detail and EVERYTHING works! I love it! You are an amazing master of Metal Works and Craft. I simply cannot sa enough about this piece. Thanks you. For bringing this to the forums for all to see.
I hope you are proud of you're work, because it really is something to be proud of.
Now. *Sly smile* Does it transform?. (Kidding of course)

if someone could make some fairy dust on these boards then please please could i have some, i would love for my prime to transform, but even my skills are nowhere near that good, i am thinking further ahead to my next project though, and considering how to transform him,so you never know!!
on a serious note though,thanks for the kind words, its really just having the patience, 2 going on 3 years now! what with the gun,energon axe and a base i want to make for him too, as i was saying to a previous member, tackle one part at a time, and concetrate on that part before moving on, when doing legs and arms, try to do 2, then you know you wont go wrong with sizes etc, heres a ink to another site were my build progress pics are bigger,
c3pobuilders :: Astromechs and Other Robots :: pics of my other (lol) project Optimus Prime ~ Runboard
again thank you for the very kind words
all the best

Wow. This is a dream item for any Transformer fan. Amazing work on this.
thanks for support and kind words, heres the latest pics of primes gun, first i changd the colour of the leds to orange,then i set about getting everything into the gun gun,the speaker was siliconed inside on the top,i drilled some small holes for the sound to come through, then i wanted to make a small plate that can be taken of etc, for changing batteries, i added detail to the plate, also added the extra handle on primes gun, filled and sanded and primed ready for top coat, im pleased with how it turned out,
all the best

epic win
thanks lunar lord for you support.
heres the latest guys, now i really researched this as i wanted to get this part right, so after a bit of research, i found some live glow perspex, it glows in daylight, using the compound its made from, so i cut my basic axe shape,bigger one side, this had to be made from 2 pieces, then glued together, then i wanted to give this axe some energon pulsing through this,so i used my pyography tool(woodburning) and using heat i engraved some lightning through the middle and edges, i then flatted the perspex with some 400 grit sand paper to bring the efect out and to give the axe another shade, I then used a orange tint tube,which come from some blowing bubbles, i cut a slit into this,and epoxyed the axe in place, now ive got to build the ball part of the axe, heres the latest pics
all the best
