RoS cover 05 on Alex Milne's DA

Feel free to delete if this is old news.

Alex had put the 5th RoS cover up on his DA site:

Cool!

... but interesting how the style that most of the characters are drawn in is still pretty much standard DW/IDW style. Starscream is the only one that really has the "shrapnelled" effect of a movieformer, while all his fellow Decepticons who are based on toy designs look considerably more coherent and conventional.

One thing that really hit me in this illustration, and seems like a missed opportunity... this TOTALLY should have been blocked out as an homage to the classic G1 box back art! You know with Prime's head in the foreground and Starscream at the vanguard of a decepticon swarm emerging from space? That would have been SO sweet! Too bad.

Oh, and is that Thundercracker and Jetfire I see in the lower right corner?

Or just Dirge and Ramjet maybe. Hm.

Wow, Espen did an amazing job coloring this. I assume he's just doing the cover and Josh Perez will be back for interiors. Cool all around. I'm loving this series.

No, Its Thundercracker and Ramjet

Heh...who could say, without reading the comic?

Thundercracker was my first instinct, but once it occurred to me that the white one was probably Ramjet, Dirge seemed like a more obvious pairing.
