Description
Transformers: Animated, Shockwave. About to...do something horrible...to the viewer, I suppose.He is supposed to be "Shh" with his talon, buuuuut...I can also sorta see it that he could be clicking his "tongue" (if he has one...oO) in that fake concerning tone while tapping said talon on his face plate, before mutilating whoever it is, while saying something in that awesome voice, of course-masterfully done by Corey Burton.
Found this tribute accidentally while looking for some good ref of 'ole Shocky in this form...and this one, is actually REALLY good. The part with his face as Longarm and the eye showing up in the lens on his head at :30 is epic.

I do enjoy them looking mean and nasty...
The original file name was "God is God", as I was listening to Juno Reactor when I first got the idea of this image a month or so ago...
But I listened to Until is Sleeps by Metallica of course, covered by Apocalyptica, near the end of it's completion- and it fit rather well. Well, that, and the song playing in the tribute. LOL
I like the fact I was able to get the look I wanted, without actually doing the whole painting thing. Another step in the right direction perhaps...I am still trying to tweak with what I want for color randering. I had to alter some of the linework, as this is older...some of the parts were out of place to my tastes now a days. Argh.
He is looking rather diabolical and sinister here-and he isn't even my favorite...but he grew on me QUITE a bit while working on this...but not so much.
Just reminds me, I really need to do something like this with a couple of my favorites, namely, well, my ALL TIME FAVORITE...'ole BUCKETHEADRAGEYPANTS-er, MEGATRON...LOL. Now, hopefully, can get some other things done...well, after I finish some holiday driving...
I am sure we remember who owns Transformers...but if we don't, Oh, Hasbroken...how you hurt me by cutting off this wonderful series.

Hehe, no problem at all! Go for it!
And thank you very much for that! I just mess around with layers quite a bit, but taught myself a lot of the techniques - can be crazy sometimes though. I can say there are a few good tutorials on youtube that I checked out for some effects, though I usually end up altering what I learn to better fit with my poking around. Sorry about the rambling, lol! Thank you again!

Hehe, apparently I can't search very well cuz I get all the really cruddy tutorials (though I did find one that helped me learn the pen tool )

Hehehe, well good on that! As I tend to do a lot of rambling...arghs! I guess it's pretty prevalent in some of my descriptions too. Ffff...lol.
And well, it depends, i've found some pretty wonky ones, and then just others which sorta helped me in a way. But I basically take what little bits I end up understanding, then messing around with it my own way. I think that it's more natural that way somehow, but eh, I guess it depends on how you look at it. XD

Ah, yes, all the great artist do, for in becoming a great artist you must find your own way of doing things to make yourself satisfied :3 (... I'm not really good at writing XD)

Thank you so much for that! And I don't look too much, but I think in general you are right compared to some of the other characters. Hopefully i'll get around to doing some hardly anyone knows about or remembers, lol.
Take care!

Wow, this is great. Love the color and lighting.
I can totally hear "Until It Sleeps" in my head. This song (both Metallica and Apo's versions) and Shockwave are both my all time favorite things. XD

This is an epic win! It is so well colored and very well drawn! I like how shiney he is. I was also thrilled to see that it was the purple Shockwave. I always see the blue and gray one it seems, so seeing his 'true colors' was really refreshing.
He does look quite creep shushing you. Although I'm so short and he is so beastly tall I would never know.
You are a very good artist! It makes me smile to see all your slendiferous art! Now I have to go or I'll be super cranky in the morning!

Thank you very much on that! And yes on my lateness...I suck at answering comments at times, it's a sad thing.
And I do enjoy his purple coloring over the "Longarm" color scheme, definitely.
And shushy face Shockwave is shushy. I thought it would be a nice touch, I guess it's just my general outlook though on things, lol.

Wow. Great picture. I'm dead serious when I say it gave me chills. Doubly so when I imagined Corey Burton saying something sinister and clever...
I really adore your lineart. It looks like you put more effort into just your lines than I've ever put into a whole piece. Don't even get me started on the coloring or the pose.
Excellent piece from an excellent gallery.
