    i dunno about anyone else but sometimes i have no faith in my ability.

    some will disagree but its just me, its what motivates me i guess. i have to prove to myself that i can do it.
    hence this peice. took a while to do mainly cause i have 0 free time at the moment and i hurt my hand but anyway here we go.

    my goals here were to
    a) make this look as much like the movie as possible, which meant playing the movie and taking screen shots, all versions, the 20th ani, the remastered and the original, to make sure that the colours and lighting was right.
    b) whilst keeping the cartoon feel give it a nice textured feel to it

    so have i done good you think ?
    C&C welcome

    He didn't draw it, only coloured it, and it IS within Autobot City, the platform it's on just looks to be mountain-like due to the perspective of the original art and the colours used.

    That clairification aside, this is some top-notch work! Good job!

    Very awesome... But just to be a snivelling nitpicker, I must point out that Megatron says "Soundwave churn that transmission" :D

    well in responce to a lot of the crit i decided to make some (semie drastic changes) i dunno if yall will actually like it but im happier with it. i went at this without the idea of making it look like screenshots so obvously felt more freedom so i guess in my mind it may not be better but im happier with it

    Are you serious? I thought he said "Soundwave, jam that transmission"

    As far as the coloring goes, you did a great job, limabean! :thumb
