Hi, I'm new, sort of. I actually used to post on the boards until about a year ago under a different name, but had to stop while my entire life got destroyed and rebuilt. Since I'm starting everything else over from scratch, I wanted to start from scracth here too. To celebrate my new arrival/return, I'd like to present my first TransFormers fan art! It's always made me sad how most designs cover up the crown/crest on G1 Megatron's head, so I decided to do the opposite and make the inner layer of the helmet more obvious. I like to think that part of the toy helped get him the title "Emperor of Destruction", and now it gives him a stronger visual connection to G1 Galvatron, BW Megatwon, etc. I know it's not perfect, but the pencil was done on a wrinkled sheet of graph paper
i really like it its nice and toy accurate but has enough bulk to make him seem menicing unlike his toy form so yeah! good job man and welcome back to the boards!
Thanks! I probably won't have any more TF art to post soon, but when I do I'm thinking of maybe giving BW Megatron a similar toy-accurate treatment... aside from maybe the colors and his left arm. That guy was in bad need of more paint.
Thanks all! Next time, I think I'll avoid graph paper alltogether. It's not as easy to filter out the blue lines at I thought it would be.
I don't normally comment on art, or even come into this forum but "Emperor of Destruction" drew me in. A very distinctive style. I agree, the sword is very cool. Do more please.
Maybe in the next week or two if I feel motivated It'll probably be Beast Wars Megatron or Optimal Optimus, since I've got ideas for interesting ways to portray them.
