3rd Bonus!

The final bonus item is a Box Art complete with a G1 tech spec styled card by Brett Wolf. Here's some WIP pictures. Oh and I just realized that I couldn't update the auction with a few hours remaining unfortunately.

2nd Bonus!!

The second bonus item consists of 2 custom made plaques! These plaques when put side by side will form the picture of the Hearts of Steel Optimus Prime. The plaques will bear the serial number 000, being the first pair for this series. The winner will also be able to choose his/her name or any other information to be engraved on the plaques. The picture below is just a prototype design of the plaque. The actual version will also look rather similar to it!

1st Bonus item!

The first bonus items consists of a Base Stand for both customs! These bases were made by griffith_76 as a special bonus for this auction only! griffith_76 had painstakingly designed them from the computer, had it machine churned and cut them by hand! The inscription, "Transformers Evolutions: Hearts of Steel" at the bottom was taken from the comics.

I've repainted them to a glossy showroom shine so much that Prime's reflection will be seen from the base. The inscription, "Transformers Evolutions: Hearts of Steel" was dry brush shaded at the edges to give a fading and shadowy steel effect. The red for the Autobot insignia is a rich red as seen from my G1 Prime sometime back. The Decepticon insignia was given a shade of glossy purple. Also, do excuse the pictures for the bluish tint as the Decepticon logo is really more purple in real life than as seen in the pictures.

Hearts of Steel: Optimus Prime

Now on ebay!!!

Reviewed by Action Figure Customs

Well, I'm not sure where to start but credit has to be given to griffith_76 for taking up this project. Many of you would probably be familiar with models of the old 10 inch figure that was designed by griffith_76 quite awhile back. However due to the complexity and prohibitively expensive costs of production, the project was relooked by griffith_76 and shrunk down to a 6.5 inch as it was less complex and more affordable for the masses.

Not to be forgotten is Mr Guido Guidi for his amazing artwork in the Hearts of Steel series.

This first edition set pair of Hearts of Steel Optimus Prime is designed to be modelled after the Hearts of Steel comics as well as my very own rendering of a Hearts of Steel Nemesis Prime. I set out to do up a more realistic impression of a train as opposed to my usual shiny and reflective customs.

The HOS 01A (red/blue) was dry brushed before using coats of red and blue to get a steely outlook for the his parts. Much of his trailer was shaded before being covered with clear blue.

HOS 01B (black/gold/teal) was predominantly shaded to achieve his burnt steel look across. His gold was achieved by airbrushing layers of enamels for a richer shade. Both figures were given an anti UV gloss coat for a lasting finish that will retain their colours for many years to come.
