Artist's Comments

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.

Thanks for the comments, guys! Yep, it's a little dark but I maintain that Optimus only fired in self defense:)

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 :faint:

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.

Dear Santa, for Christmas I would like a cantankerous old rustbucket that rants and swears inchoherently while shooting missiles backwards and farting bright orange parachutes :santa:
