Yay! The Dinobots! Better say something nice about the colours before I disappear into a haze of nostagia! Love the speed effect and those swampy green colours really suit them!

Oh, wow, looks awesome in color!
I love all the glowy effects! 
Need to get ahold of this one as well, still kinda hard to get comics over here

yeah, I've had a few friends on here who have had difficulty getting hold of these comics... I wonder if you can order them from the website or something? - good luck with that \:]

I have some "sources" aka hyper nice people who send me the stuff 
maybe I end up being in London in Jan./Feb. work wise, then I could grab some myself

hey really? that would be cool! ^-^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
chances are tiny.. though possibility is there
still, London doesn't seem to like me, the last two times I was there I had a lot of "traffic trouble" XD

personally I can't stand the place! .. I go there to visit, and then I'm very happy to leave!! Cardiff's a much nicer capital city

So is this going to be the next cover of the TF:A Arrival comics?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm not sure, this is going to be the cover for issue two of the UK TFA comics, I think that the arrival one you mentioned might be the IDW (American) comic?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
chances are our stuff may get reprinted in America (the regular transformers title is being re printed out there at the moment) but the UK title's only just started over here, so I doubt it'll see reprints for a while, if at all \:]

Well, I am a collector of the comic here in America, but of course I'd be interested in any covers you do. So far we haven't had any dinobot related comics, just stuff about Professor Princess and Oilslick and stuff like that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
riiight.... all of the stories we've had in our comic so far have been original 
- I've coloured the main strip in the comics so far, and the cover on this one... it's gonna be a great issue when it comes out.. I'll try and pick a copy up for you if you want? (providing you're happy to pay postage etc?)

LMAO! awesome! I love that! ^-^
cheers dude, glad you like it

Dinosaur Cybernatics! I would dearly like to be one of those people behind all these comics and stuff like that.

I'm hoping I might get a chance at drawing a cover sometime
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, hope so.
Anyway, would you mind if I ask.
How much are you paid for doing these colouring?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
that's not really something I'm at liberty to disclose on a public gallery site, my friend
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oooh, I shall not probe further.
My lips are sealed.
Because I am gonna graduate soon and I think I want to find a job in that line.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well I wish you the very best of luck! It's a pretty scary industry from a point of view of a freelance to be honest, there's not much security and you could loose your job the moment a better/faster colourist comes along, it's good to work from home, but it's not a profession you'll ever get rich on, it's something you've got to do for the love of it.

Oh I see. Quality with speed.

cheers mate

Shnazzy! Love all the lighting effects. Oh boy, are all the covers for this going to be original work now rather than stock artwork?
Bob writing TFA comics.... no! Bob writing TFA dinobots! Excuse me while I make small squeaky noises for a while.

muahahaha!! I /think/ they're all going to be original from now on .. I was gutted when I saw stock on the cover of issue 1, I'm so sick of looking at those images now!
it's a dinobot orientated story but of course the other TFA characters are still in it \:]
did you check out that lara croft animation at all? ... we've seen it all now, it's about a 50/50 split, half is good and half is tripe! lol

The Dinobots smoosh Afterburn for being an unbearable perfect pain? Please...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LOL! afraid not in this one, but he wont be troubling you for much longer
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Ooo that'll be lovely to see. There's only so much stock art for some of these shows afterall!
Not yet had the chance to see the Lara Croft animations, it's been one of those weeks. My day off was spent just trying to finish too much stuff!
