Animated Minerva coming to Tfcon2011!
So after seeing the botcon minerva I decided I wanted one, but frankly didn't have $950 to blow on it..

So.. We started with an Arcee and got to work!

here we are $930 cheaper, and here's my results.
I'm not quite done, I've got to touch up some areas of white, and apply some decals.. remove some of the excess paint on the ball joints that sticks out like a sore thumb..

I also have yet to figure out the antenna, but they will be there by the time tfcon arrives!

But I'm overall happy with the result. Looks like $1000 dollars to me!

Re: Animated Minerva coming to Tfcon2011!
Thanks for the compliments guys!! I fell in love with the botcon version upon seeing pics, so I knew I had to make one of my own..

Now to figure out the antennas!

I also think I missed black lining one of the forearms.. hrm.. I thought I did that.. But it looks like I didn't.. time to fix that!

I actually have the Botcon one and I like your paint apps better. You may want to reach out to Sean who ran the class to see if he has any spare antennas. They never got anymore of the G1 looking ones but he had a small zip loc bag full of the Animated ones.

Unfortunately I don't have his screen name but if you're a member of the TFCC, you can go onto the forum section there and check out the custom area. I think Sean frequents that forum often.
