Last year, I did a series of MTMTE style profiles to go with my Binaltech fanfiction. Unfortunately real life events prevented me from having the time, energy and concentration to complete the project at the time. Finally, I've got time to breathe and have started getting things moving again. For my previous profiles Dan Khanna, Evan Gaunt and Makoto Ono were all generous enough to let me use their fantastic BT/Alternators artwork. Even though Hasbro has uncredited character art available on its website, it doesn't feel right to use it without the permission of the artists themselves. The picture of Swindle here is therefore a scan of the lineart in the little booklet accompanying the toy. I've added colours as best I can. Anyway, at long last, here's Swindle. The resources of BWTF.com, the late and much lamented binalternators.com and the hard work of fan translator Doug Dlin were all used to make this profile as accurate as possible. However any errors are, as always, all my own work.
This will probably be overlooked with all the excitement of Botcon, but that's absolutely awesome work. Are you going to do any more? I'd love to see an Optimus Prime Dodge ram!
