    A project 2 months in the making, but one I've planned since legends started ramping up. It started as a sketch, then a graph drawing, then it became real.

    I wanted to bring to life various scenes from the span of the G1 cartoon. I had several scenes in mind right away, such as Prime and Megatron's battle atop the dam, the oil rig and underwater base as well as the various spacebridges and the Quint courtroom. More ideas came and I added them. Differing angles of composition were intentionally used to keep your eyes moving around the individual scenes as well as the entire piece.

    Countless materials, tools and many skillsets were used in its creation. I hope you enjoy the pics. I have around 300 of the entire process, but chose about 25 to share here.

    Full folder will uploaded to my Gdrive:
