    Very nice job on Grimmy. He looks like a proper T-Rex now, rather than the outdated 1970's conception of a tyrannosaurus that he once was. The bot mode also looks excellent.

    Top-notch work man, I'm feeling very, very jealous right now. :D

    I usually don't get too excited by fan CG art, but you have managed to cause me to soil another pair of boxers. F***ING AMAZING! The level of detail is awsome, proportions are a little leaning towards Action Master style but not to the point where it detracts from the quality of the pic. Absolutely AMAZING! :rock  :rock  :rock

    I must admit, the first pictures of his dino mode on the front page put me more in mind of a raptor than a T-Rex, though the ones on the 3rd page here, do, in fact, look like a T-Rex.

    Now I know what your model of his robot mode is reminding me of. A transformable version of his Action Master mold. He's far more streamlined here, built more for speed than power. To give an example, it's like comparing his original Bolo Yeung body and this new Bruce Lee take on him.

    I would disagree that his original proporitions made him look unweildly or non badass, however I like the aesthetics of this take on Grimlock as well, and look forward to seeing him in action in your fanimation.

    I was feeling some vibe fromthis picture and this is it. He felt like a 'lean' raptor opposed to a fat bloated 80's dinosaur (which at that time, science new less about dinos true natures)

    Part of me likes 'fat' grimlock (the dino in DW MTMTE was perfect IMHO)

    I still wanna see the legs and how you handle the tail. I think there is lots of promise to having sleaker dinobots, as all of them were pretty tubby and slow.
