Optimus Prime Bust

Seed Part: 2x2 Trapezoidal Flag

Inspiration:

The seed part of round 3 of Iron Forge was the 2x2 trapezoidal flag. I thought this part would be perfect for all the thin pieces of sheet metal that make up a transformer's body.

About the Build:

This was one of the first ideas I had for this round, but as I built it, I kept finding more and more ways to add more flags. While this model doesn't transform, check out my Transformers page to see a bunch that actually do!

Built January 2021 for Iron Forge

Build Time: 1 day

 Fun Fact:

To showcase my model, I made a video of my Optimus Prime bust at sunrise, and recorded a voiceover with my best Optimus Prime impression. I wanted to share my reflections on that year's Iron Forge.
