This is a recent digital painting, done for fun. I was mainly hoping to get a look reminiscent of the original Transformers cartoon and movie-meaning more linework on the characters contrasted by a looser, more painterly sky. I also wanted to convey the sheer size of Optimus Prime, I pictured him like a lumbering building. And so I added the birds taking off from his back.
It's very, very rare I use the word "beautiful" for anything, but I just used it for this picture because that really is the only word to describe it
The subdued colours and pose, overcast sky and dark mood tell me that there's just been an almighty battle - and Prime almost regrets winning it because he had to destroy so many other Transformers.
