ack it's been a while -_-

so yeah, this toy totally rocks my socks!

 

Seeing this makes me sad that I no longer see your work in regular print. Love the rope and grapple there and great perpective on that leg.

 

great movement!

Good to see your work again! I really like the composition in this piece. Its very complicated. I really like the leg stepping forward and the way the propellers just fit right in the space in between his back cannon and the tail section/shoulder area. Nice work. That cable really adds some depth! The twin cannon is a little odd but I really could care less this piece is so cool. Cybertron is wonderful!

Simply superb. Great to see more of your work!!

 

OMG! Incredible stuff, really does the toy total justice.

 

Amazing job man!!!

 

Nebula Chain!!!!!  

This is perfect, for lack of a better word. Glad to see your art again.  

 

Fantastic!

(Gazes at own pencils effort, which resembles a hippo's attempt at fingerpainting, and sighs...)

 

Have you thought of making a how to draw robots book or something? cuz I'd buy it.

 

Joe has an eye for details and perspective. Hell, he has two of em!!  

 

awesome dude!  s I've missed your TF work 

 

oops, sorry for the double post  

 

u are the awsum!

only thing id improve? prolly the head facing upwards/towards the screen.

 

Beautiful!

 

one would think TFs have eyes/optics that can move and focus independently from it's head much like how a human's eyes would work. if TFs have visible eyeballs I'm sure you'll see Evac looking straight at you

 

So beautiful... *has seizure*

 

i guess thats always a problem drawing TFs - u guys should know. its hard if u want to do sideways(long?) glances and stuff like that. not uncommon also with drawing superheroes with mask.

 

Damn, Joe, your work is simply astonishing - perspective, detail and energy, wrapped up in some truly fantastic linework.

Great to see your work here again - hopefully, that'll get the colours it deserves before too long.

thanks guys!

ka: yeah, like don said, the intention was kindof to make his 'pupils' looking straight ahead at the viewer. although that doesn't really show at all in my lineart >_< i'll leave a note for the colourist hehe.

TGping: robut art book? nah, i think there are plenty of guys out there (ie don, mako, ks, marcelo, guido, dan khanna, etc.) that could probably do a way better job, but thanks for the support!  

as for getting back into things, i've been a tad pulled away from tf's for the past little while, but these awesome gf/cyberton toys are making it hard for me not to draw XD

 

This is the first time I see your work. (Not)
Hmmm...
To be honest dude...

You gotta quit your current job and go save the future of TF comics @ IDW! Now!
