Optimus Prime by Dan Whetton

18" Movie Optimus Prime 

Optimus Prime Detailed Model

Inspired by the Transformers movies, and by multiple artists online who have successfully created custom models, I decided to create my own version.

 

The base model was a 18" KO (knock off) Oversized Optimus Prime toy from China. A 1:24th scale Peterbilt 379 was then used to correctly represent the truck parts on the robot body. Nearly all the work is custom or altered by myself in some way. This is not a cheap model model to build. It took time and could still do with work. Enjoy.
