Description This one came about when my very good friend (and INSANELY tallented) Andrew Griffith [link] wanted to flex his art skillz on some Beast Wars action.

Naturally, I jumped at the chance to help him out, and boy oh boy, did this boy deliver. NO SURPRISE!!! It's no wonder that IDW have scooped him up, he kicks all sorts of ass.

When Andrew asked if I had any ides for a colorist, Javier Reyes [link] was the first to come to mind. He's worked with Andrew before and has got all sorts of mad skillz. Again, no wonder why he's got some paid work with IDW, too.

very impressive, even though it does conflict a little with the fact that dinobot seemingly let himself be destroyed when the bridge of the Nemesis exploded.  But what you did could be very plausible, considering that we truly saw dinobot get blown to pieces.  all in all, excellent work!

Fantastic! I love the story behind this--Dinobot surviving really seems feasible: transmetal 2 + immortal spark = I don't think that explosion could have killed him...and taking into account that the events of Dark Glass are still canon--though off-screen.

Gah, poor Rattrap though. D: It'll be lonely back on Cybertron without Chopperface.

I usually don't post on the mosaics but I just had to do so here. I love the idea of Dinobot staying behind and protecting the Ark. I just love the art here too. I can see why he with IDW. Great job to all of you who worked on it.

This is an amazing mosaic. Not only is it a BW mosaic (which are usually few and far between) but it is also a great concept. Though not "cannon," I really think that the original Dinobot's essence became conscious in Dinobot 2 during the final episode and I also think that this is exactly what he would do with the rest of his life given the chance. Great job.

Josh-van-Reyk In reply to ArtonRye [2009-04-24 10:10:49 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I've always thought the same thing. HE mentioned that he finally felt whole, and started showing characteristics of the original Dinobot.
