    ;)  Lots of updates! New stuff that's completed:

    Autobots
    Headmasters - TR molds of the Big Four
    Twincast - Recolor of TR Blaster
    Punch - Recolor of Sideswipe, based on the convention exclusive
    Pointblank - Recolor of TR Blurr. I'm optimistic he'll get produced in the future and I'll update this.
    Crosshairs - Recolor of Legends Kup. I'm also optimistic he'll get produced in the future.
    Sureshot - Recolor of Generations Sandstorm. I almost used TR Hotrod for this but Sandstorm is a dune buggy like Sureshot and his chest design more closely resembles Sureshot's.
    Whirl - Generations Whirl
    Throttlebots - Recolors of TR Bumblebee, Classics Bumblebee, TR Brawn and Generations Pipes/Huffer. Hopefully we get more official releases of the Throttlebots in the future.

    Decepticons
    Headmasters - TR molds of the Big Three
    Sixshot - TR Sixshot. I like the paint scheme on TR Sixhshot more then Legends Sixshot. I might recolor him with light blue versus his current turquoise.
    Soundblaster - Recolor of TR Soundwave.
    Counterpunch - Recolor of Sunstreaker.
    Slugslinger, Misfire, Triggerhappy - TR versions. In the future I'm going to compare these to their Legends counterparts and decide which paint scheme I like better.
    Pounce - TR mold.
    Overcharge - Generations Blitzwing
    Battletrap - Generations Springer. Waiting for PotP update.
    Flywheels - Generations Blitzwing. Waiting for PotP update.
    Enemy - Recolor of TR Rumble.
    Wingthing - Recolor of TR Laserbeak

    What's Next...
    TR Wingspan, TR Autobot Clones, UW Computron, TR Sky Shadow, PotP Terrorcons, PotP Dinobots, PotP Rodimus Prime, PotP Predaking and other PotP updates... I'll also be working on completing stuff that needs to get updated or is unfinished like TR Brawn, PotP Beachcomber, Trypticon, Fort Max, Sky Reign...

    I'm actually sorta close to getting caught up to everything that's been released and sorta closed to being finished. There's lots of stuff that I want to include in the 1988 and 1989 groups but I just don't think we'll ever get or it will be a long wait. For example, I want to include Seacons and Raiden but I see both as long shots to getting updates. We'll see... (I'm also trying my best to remove/replace any 3P figures and don't want to use them anymore going forward.)

    These are amazing. Is there any chance you'll pop these on some fancy poster/artists' prints site for sale? Perhaps as-is or in a more curated collection/illustration/graphic design of your choice?

    I don't have an idea on how to to do that actually but would be open to it. :(  FYI, I'm also slowing down a bit. I used to update the first post a few times a week but I think I'll only be updating it a few times a month now. I still have the goal of continuously updating with new art based on new releases but I'm just going to be doing it at a slower pace.

    I actually have made frames for myself! I'm thinking of expanding this into another area. Stay tuned...

    Hi Everyone,

    I just launched my art blog! (See the link in my signature.) It will be updated twice a week with art and other content. Please check it out!

    I will continue to post on this thread and update the art here too. :) 

    THANKS!

    Are you considering doing a Liokaiser soon? I'm thinking the best iteration would be tfc hades...

    Yes! I will eventually get to Liokaiser. I love that design and I agree that the TFC Hades is the best revision we currently have.

    It’ll be a while before I get to him though. Maybe early January. It’s hard to predict. But I won’t get to him until I am caught up with official Hasbro and Takara releases.

    How do you even manage this? These are spectacular.
    I've been trying my hand at making TF sprites myself, but, as you can see from my profile pic, I'm nowhere near your level of awesome.

    Thank you for the kind words :)  The only words of advice is to simply keep making more and more pieces of art and to regularly visit tutorials on sprite making. There's plenty of them on the web. The one that really got me started on this is here. Keep it up. You will get better over time. I thoroughly enjoy the process.

    Thanks! :) 

    I'm gonna be working on "Season 5" aka Godmasters soon and I was wondering what people thought would be good suggestions for figures that haven't been updated by Hasbro/Takara. This is what I got so far...

    Autobots
    Super Ginrai --> Legends Super Ginrai
    Lightfoot --> Titans Return Getaway/Breakaway
    Ranger --> Energon Beachcomber
    Clouder --> Cybertron Red Alert
    Road King --> Energon Prowl
    God Bomber --> Legends God Bomber
    Sixknight --> Legends Sixknight

    Decepticons
    Overlord --> Legends Overlord
    Buster --> Power of the Primes Dreadwind
    Hydra --> Power of the Primes Blackwing
    Doubleclouder --> !?!??!?!?!?!!?
    Browning --> Combiner Wars Shockwave?
    Guardminder --> ????!?!?!?!??

    Ha! Yes! Very correct. Now, the harder thing to guess is what do you think is D86 and D87 are?

    I'll give you one hint. Pictures of D86 were shown a few days ago...
