Brothers re-united again. Prime and Magnus, back on the small screen together, but in a seeming reversal of roles. Optimus is the younger unsure, hesitant leader, and Ultra Magnus, the older, and wiser leader.
Entertainment News International brings us the first, very up close picture of the former City Commander's noggin.
Enjoy the teaser of this more mature version of this ever reluctant character.

You got way too much time on your hands!
Interesting works.
What really saved the day are the well-thought out names!

That will be a problem. I can't find one. I was searching for a basis for scratch-built Bonecrusher, in Voyager or Leader size. But i can't find a decent photo yet. So i can't start.

I could recolor it myself, because I have Serif Photoplus, but I'm curious to see what you come up with.

It's beyond belief, but even Prime can make the Locsut scheme look cool. Even the gold[plated] thong doesn't make Prime look any less kickass.

Not my favorite work. I tried to make her look like a silly soldier but instead ended up making her look like the quarterback for the New K-2L Chozos Football Team.
