MCP – Sentinel Mk4 & Sentinel Prime Painting Guide

Welcome to my latest painting guide! The Sentinels are here! I’ve been dreaming of these since MCP was announced and they really live up to my expectations!


I need your support. Because my guides takes time and supplies to do, any support you can offer would mean the world to me. A supportive message in the comments is enough, but if you have the means why not send me a gift on Ko-Fi or PayPal. Thank you!
