Description
Galvatron is one of my early attempts at drawing Transformers. I think I used a character sheet from the G1 Transformers cartoon itself as reference but Iām unsure since it was so long ago. I colored the finished portrait in Paintshop.Related content

The most insane Decepticon, followed by TFA Blitzwing and Armada Cyclonus.

In the original cartoon definitely. In the comics I think that award goes to Sunstorm and Overlord. They're so dangerously unpredictable and crazy even the other Decepticons are shit scared of them.Ā

Hmm, that's interesting. I don't really know much about the comics, but thanks for informing me.

it's no problem. I wrote a bio on Sunstorm under the art piece I did of him.
Overlord basically took over an entire prison planet of Transformers and turned it into a Roman style gladiator arena where if the winners could beat him after beating their opponents he would free them.Ā

What issue was that in? I'm assuming it was IDW? If so, then I might be interested in reading it sometime.

It's from Transformers: The Last Stand of the Wreckers. It's a five issue series you can find in a collected editionvfrom IDW. I highly recommend it.Ā
You can easily find it on Amazon.

Awesome work. I've always loved Galvatron. He's the evolved form of Megatron. Though, I think Leonard Nimoy did a much better job voicing him than Frank Welker did. No offense to Frank Welker, but that high pitched scratchy voice he gave Galvatron was very unsuiting to the character. Leonard Nimoy sounded more menacing and intimidating with his deep sinister voice. But its understandable that Nimoy had other things to do at the time.

Yeah but considering Nimoy has such a distinct voice even when they make it sound like a robot, they couldn't find a proper immitator and just went with Welker.
Also Galvatron is damaged in the final battle with Rodimus and he's supposed to be damaged brain wise, almost like he developed a new personality that is different from either of his previous ones.
Still I agree with you, Nimoy had the best sinister voice for the character and it really made you feel intimidated.

Sweet! This would look great as a foil card.

Cool! That's sort of the effect I was going for. I would hope the Transformers, like all robots, would wantr to look as polished and pristine as possible. Well, except Wreck-Gar and the Junkions, but they can't help it.
