Description
In happy news, I went with the Very First Scan on this one. I never even bothered to do another one. It came out acceptable on the first try.So, I asked if it was OK with him if I threw some colors on his Magnus sketch, [link] and he said go ahead.
It's a little hard, because at this point I feel like I owe it to myself and to everyone who watches me, to make everything I color into a deathless work of art. And this is basically me just throwing some colors on...
I did finish out the picture a little bit... See how my lines are skritchier and skairdier than Robby's? And I did take the dedication off the top. I hope that's OK, Robby - I just wanted to give Magnus a little more of the spotlight, and the words were distracting. Please forgive!
Anyways, hope you all like!
Here's Robby's original sketch:

Thanks very much for the compliment! I checked out your sketches. I'm not doing a whole lot of coloring, what with having 4 small children and all. But if I ever find I must color your Blackarachnia or die, I'll note ya!
Thanks again. It made my day to have you want me to attack something of yours with my markers of doom.
Best of luck to you,
--Prime

Awww. I love his gentle expression. And with the subtle coloring you did it just adds to the peaceful, or even pure, look. Which is totally suitable given who you are and who he is, if'n ya know what I mean.

Aw, thanks pal!
(I know - a few times lately I've caught myself feeling guilty about something, and looking at that picture, and thinking, "Ultra Magnus wouldn't have done that!!" )

Awww, he's the new moral guidance, eh? You could hang that pic up somewhere where you...need it. You know, his face...it reminds me of another picture...I must find it and show you!
Oh, and I was going to tell you, the other day in the lab there was a conversation something like this:
"Well, I guess I'll SACRIFICE myself for the team, and take out all the lab waste myself."
"Ohh, can you help me with this (something) first?"
"I can't deal with that now!"
*takes lab waste out*
I thought you might be amused. Mildly. Okay now that I look at it its not that exciting...
...
Have a nice day! XD

HA!!!!!!!!!
Actually, I thought it was HILARIOUS.
*dies ing*
*ahem*
Thank you for sharing.
Magnus is a bit more stick-up-the-aft than Prime is, but that unwaveringness is a good example to him/me, sometimes.

One day, I'm going to sneak inside your brain and steal your colouring circuits!
Your colours are as gorgeous as ever, and I really like the simple grainy texture on the background to contrast with Magnus' smoothness

Thanks pal!

I'm so glad you like it! I've lost the ability to look at my own work objectively, so I was a little nervous about showing you.
Did you ever hit a plateau in your art? If so, how did you cope and plow through it?

Oh, so handsome! I've always liked UM's colors and you did a lovely job with them. They're so clear.

Thanks, little pal. I carefully used a different blue and red from Prime's. It was kinda fun to work with a different color palette.
