Description Contest entry for transtopia's challenge.

Contest idea was to set characters in a fight scene, using whatever you may please, albeit with some kind of "original character(s)" created.

16 by 33 inch piece carved out of 6 8x11 inch. papers. I think 2 weeks of inking pain on and off. Still unsure of whether I should add more line weights.

Credits:

Tryannoking by Computron (I apologize for the face, didn't have enough time to flesh it back to original with faceplate)
Alt. Mirage by JAF
Alt. Prowl by TFmaster
Alt. Wheeljack by Viagra Prime (Finally, an invention that works!)
Blaster by Pepie (giving thumbs up)

Decepticon side:
Masterpiece Soundwave by Dio
Alt. Starscream (one who's pointing at Predaking) by Viagra Prime Alt. Skywarp(one that's pointing toward Energon Doublecross), Alt. Thundercracker (one who's freaked out) are just repaints with remolded shoulder weapons.

'Custom' Characters:
Alt. Optimus Prime (near Paddles)-Super Ford Duty-Ranch edition, only minor thing is flames on doors like Hot Rod.
Alt. Megatron (G4 Hummer Avenger)
Predaking Z-(made out of various zoid inspired modes, razorclaw most notably by Blade Liger, intended to increase firepower and mobility with Z-block builder tech)
Paddles, the 6th Dinobot character created by Jean Rabe.
Source: Transformes Legends Anthology (Sorry, but I could not find any way to definitely contact him, so here's the credit)
G1 AcidWing (triple changer modified Seeker)
Energon Doublecross (2 headed dragon, Terrorcon spy, younger brother of Landmine)

Background: Dinbot Island/Monster Island

I really would've added more and wished to fully sketched out Alt. Megs and Alt. Prime, and intended to ink the bottom half, but my daily schedule and the looming MCAT kept me quite busy to say the least.

I hope the inked pic helps and you find a certain insurance lizard somewhere in the pic

Amazing, that image must have been a lot of work. Those details are so well done. Love the little GEICO joke hidden in the drawing.

Colouring in that?? X_X;;;;

That would take so long. So much detail! It would look great though. Where to start though haha.

AcidWing In reply to meteor-of-irohazaka [2005-04-13 19:01:46 +0000 UTC]

yup, I hope to color it, would look better I think.

But don't worry it'll take long as I suck at coloring, still in the infant stages of photoshop :/

I still need to master the fine skill of making straight lines

But, my style sort of emphasizes incongrousness to convey that these bots' have been battling for some time

Holy-freaking-moly. I have nothing useful to say. I'm just going to biddle my lips in stupified wonder. The sheer mass of 'bot detail floors me.

That lizard was such a TINY part of the whole image... Ye gods.

Wow. Your drawing pain is your contest victory, my friend.

hehe, thank you, actually if I had more free time, I would've gone nuts and added an extra 8 or 16 by 33 to the top to convey more chaos and a greater threat

Oh well, guess those designs will come another time
