    Here is a piece commissioned by Alphie. Their names (from left to right) are Beltline, Sonicblaze and Echo.

    This one took some time, but nonetheless I had fun. I also got a chance to practice developing in some other areas, such as lighting and mood.

    Drop your comments and let me know whatcha think. You can read some production notes I have on the Deviant page in regards to the characters' creators.

    I really like it. Though I admit to not knowing that much about the various characters, I think the picture is well thought-out and the environment and lighting work very well together to make the composition interesting.

    I tried not to stray too far from your CG design, dude. Wanted to keep it faithful.

    I actually wanted to post a link to it, but since I hadn't gotten permission yet, didn't want to get ahead of myself. :D

    Well you did a beautiful job, man. Hehe, Alphie IM'd me in a tizz, to show me :) 
    I like what you did with the shoulders; once I've finished modelling my version of Echo I might well go back and retrofit SB with that shoulder mechanism. :)
