I am Optimus Prime...and I send this message to any surviving autobots taking refuge
among the stars...we are here...we are waiting

That's the last words, a plea from Optimus Prime - the commander of the Autobots in the movie Transformers.

Optimus Prime is the largest, strongest and wisest of all Autobots. He feels his role is the protection of all life, including Earth-life, fighting unceasingly to defeat the Decepticons...a leader and also a hero !

This is my entry for Hero Contest hosted by BIKER SCOUT : [link]

Note : After completing 2 Transformers vector before this, I was not about to subject myself again to the agony of messing with the mesh tool - its time consuming and always as ever require a lot of layers. But I decided to push the envelope and choose a tough subject to vector, this time to enter myself for this particular contest.
This time I chose not to create my work on a single file. All 4 limbs got its own file and another 2 files for the upper and lower part of the body. So no PC lagging this time !
