yeah only I kinda ditched the whole megatron combo thing in favor of how he appeared in the game when he was a good few 1000 times bigger

FUCKING HELL!!! look, frankly i'm not ashemed to admit i'm too yella to try drawing Tidal wave, the first time i saw him was in the game and he rocked so hard.... then he was big as fuck in Energon and i liked that, then Dreamwave made him half the size and dissapointing...but this is a hell of a piccy mate, fucking fantastic

yeah Dream wave did the same with Fortress Maximus he was only slightly taller then Ultra Magnus and IDW seemed to have followed that trend
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well IDW are useing the excuse he "hasnt" gone Fortress size or Headmaster yet, their only just getting gestalts/combiners and the Pretender Process ripped Cybertron apart. You face a sticky situation with Maximus, do you use the character pre-Fortress, or do you leave him out utill Metroplex and the others have shown up
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
IMO pre-fortress he is known as Cerebros maybe thats a bit too G1 of me but it works better then calling him fortress and not really being a fortress or even that big
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah but Cerebros transformed into..what was it some dodgy little computer "Please...i... i dont want to fight anymore... i'd , well i'd rather you just deactivate me right now". I luv G1, but things have been so fucked with lol

true he was emo but name wise it just fells right. also I liked how he kinda went all hulk like on scorpy
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ha yeah i never thought of that, he was an emo, all painted black and white lol, we should both do a re-design for him, i'm gonna make him a Beechcomber, that kinda suits his hippy mentality, with big fucking off wheels

That look super brutal!

yeah figured if he was some sort of transport ship he would need some sort of gear for loading stuff on board

Good thought on details.

Awe man. Tidal Wave was insane in the game.
I was so sad after beating it. I wanted more.
This is an awesome sketch man. Sorry if I
missed it somewhere, but do you first draw
them out on paper and then scan them in,
or is this all in Photoshop or some other
graphic software?
I just picked up my first Wacom Bamboo tablet
so I'm really excited.

Nothing beats the good old fashion
way. Just raw skill. Great work
man. And thanks for sharing.

Cool... He looks like a pirate with that blacked out eye...
AHR!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah I noticed how the blacked out eye looked like a patch so I added on that stripe on his face
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
looks pretty cool, is that something over his eye?
looks very menacing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well it started as a fuckup when I was drawing his eye and I just rolled with it... but if any one asks is a pirate patch
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
actually that was what I was going to say originally but I wasn't sure what your reply would be

Oh he was so worth the money, even today he's still one of my favourite figs, and your pic does him a great deal of justice, even with no mini bots in the pic, his size and overbearing presence is clear
