Description I was messing around trying to sketch a fight between Optimus Prime and Soundwave. Then I decided to add background with a few more characters ( Buzzsaw, Laserbeak, Rumble, & Frenzy).
I also inked it even tho' it was kinda sloppy. I never bothered to use a ruler and it shows. More or less a practice in doing fight composition. (as you can tell, I also got bored with the building details.)

An epic face off of the two best Transformers with face plates!

Really nice movement on this one. Particularly with the casettecons. The arm Prime is elbowing SW with doesn't quite look connected to his shoulder but other than that, pretty cool.

First one to rip off a face plate has to baby sit StarScream for a week...

Leave it to you to post the most humorous comments. I bet you could do some great Deadpool or Spiderman dialog.

If you can do word bubbles, I have a better idea.

I can make crude ones with MS Paint. Why? What's your idea?

I cant do word balloons on photoshop. I need a letterer for comics I guess.

Hmm. I guess I could give it a try. As long as I get artistic license with the dialogue!

With your sense of humor, that could be dangerous.

I think it's pretty cool and doesn't look sloppy to me. I like the details personally, especially the cracks on Soundwave's torso and whatnot. Great job

Your line work looks good and solid, but I think it feels too stiff. There needs to be more exaggeration on Prime hitting Sounders otherwise it just feels flawed.

Charger426 In reply to NuclearConvoy [2008-09-01 02:33:43 +0000 UTC]

Maybe more twist in the torso? I think I read that somewhere. Don't line the shoulders, torso, and waist up. Try to have each at a different angle.

NuclearConvoy In reply to Charger426 [2008-09-01 03:15:03 +0000 UTC]

In a fight scene, yeah. The more twist, the more energy looks to be there.

wait, i did notice OP's closest leg looks a tad bit off, like it appears as if its a bit too far up his pelvis, but thats just minor, could easily be fixed with coloring i think.

Charger426 In reply to hoRRoR-scope [2008-09-01 02:31:15 +0000 UTC]

Too wide too. That was the last thing I drew too. I think I got too lazy. I need to work on self control. I try to go too fast.

hoRRoR-scope In reply to Charger426 [2008-09-01 14:26:57 +0000 UTC]

yeah i feel ya, you can probably fix those type of things up in photoshop, but like cutting out the lines and moving them, or even using the pen tool to redraw them.

i get a little impatient when i'm coloring, so i know how you feel haha.
