    Thanks! I’ve got some more where that came from, plus I plan on making a lot more in the future.

    I’ve also got a bunch of Wheeljack head designs. I remember I started these after his ROTB toy leaked and I was mad that there was no attempt to make him look anything like Wheeljack. I wanted to make a bunch of designs that were unique and interesting, while still actually being recognizable as the character they represented.

    Great work. As much fun as digital can be, it's nice to see someone using paper sometimes too. There's a tactile feel to the end result, even when you're seeing it on a screen.

    Here’s my last one so far: Bumblebee!

    I actually started the sketches last summer, and then I made the half exoskeleton/half endoskeleton drawing just recently.

    Here's this Cyclonus drawing I made I think about 3 years ago. That one digital Megatron piece was actually made after I did this one, since I really enjoyed making it.
    I also hid Unicron in the background but I haven't been able to find a higher quality version so he's difficult to see.

    Fantastic stuff, The line art is so intricate, but you can still tell it's done by hand, something I especially appreciate. Still, I think I love that closeup on Cyclonus the most, love how it still has a bit of Marvel DNA it it, you can still easily tell it's Cyke while having those monstrous vibes you'd expect form the herald of a planet eating entity.

    I've reworked my Ironhide design into one for Ratchet, with two different color schemes since I couldn't decide which I liked better

    I decided I didn't love the gold on the blue version, so I desaturated it a bit

    That's an incredible interpretation of the character

    Your bumblebee a while back was great. Are you going to persue that concept?

    Also still love that Ironhide/ratchet design, and Jackie looks great too

    As a matter of fact, I am finishing it up right now. If I don't get it finished soon I will have to go to work and then I'll get it posted tonight when I get back home.
