Sunny, that is looking amazing.

I can't wait to see the Jetfire one as well. It's like a mini Christmas day each time you post an update

Excellent job Sunstorm, you can imagine Arcee saying "No, you better stay close to me."

Thanks for the encouragement chaps - things are really flowing well with my pics at the moment, so I decided to really crack on with Dinobot's pic even more so today, and I think it may not need the white UV pigment I have on order... I'm very nearly done. I wasn't going to unveil it til it was done, but I figured what the hell.... today's progress has really made a lot of difference to it... I may end up waiting for the white UV pigment anyway, but it is really coming to life now;

Also, I've done some more on the Roddy/Arcee pic, and this one is also coming together nicely. I just have the background and some filmstrip highlights to do on this one, and it's done;

Once these two are done, I can really turn my attention to Snarl's boxart pic...

lol - it's never gonna happen, but I won't ever be moving from TFL. Never ever ever... it's the best forum by a country mile

I am certainly considering extending my art work - after I'm married, I may apply for shorter working hours for my office job so I can concentrate on freelance illustration. That would be a dream come true...

A country mile. It has beenm a long, long time since I heard that expression.

OK - Rodimus and Arcee, your pic is done. I hope you two really enjoy this one in your new home together

original to work from;

with flash;

without flash;

As requested, Daniel was removed from the original pic, and for the arm/shoulder of Rodimus that wasn't visible in the original, I used the figure as inspiration, copying the chromed area with the red, orange and yellow V's that he has.

I really love the filmstrip look, especially the details of frame numbers and such!

Sunstorm · Post by **Sunstorm** » Thu Jul 03, 2008 2:53 pm

Thanks Min, Rumble, TT

@ TT - yeah, the film strip detail was just completed with those numbers... I found an example on google and just copied it. It makes all the difference
