Description AAAAND, IT'S COLORED!!!!  I've finally settled on how I want to color Dinobot and because I loved his coloring in Beast Wars so much, I stuck with much of that and translated it into the Beast Machines concept. I'm very proud with how it turned out. I Hope ya like it!!! 

Colored traditionally with pencil, ink, copic sketch markers with touch-ups made with prisma pencil. Minor edits in photoshop was used to clean up where some of the marker bled over the lines and to also smooth a few areas of color where the texture of the paper farked it up. I can't afford fancy-schmancy art supplies because I'm jobless and disabled and I manage with what I have and I color everything on plain 8.5 x 11 inch printer paper. It gets the job done and I prefer traditional art over digital any day of the week.


HUZZAH! More art containing my concept design of Dinobot as a Beast Machine existing in a story line that exists solely in my head, combing the two universes of Beast Wars/Machines with movie-verse Transformers. Dinobot seems like a big meanie with a stick up his butt. However, deep down, he's a big softie and has an incredible sense of honor and cares very much for his allies and friends. He chooses to stand watch over the young techno-organic boy named Vance, who is recuperating from a near fatal encounter with Decepticons and Predicons.

This basically follows after these to pieces:

Part 1:

Part 2:


I really just wanted an excuse to draw more Dinobot. By the way, he may have drifted off into a light recharge, but he's still got his wits about him and would sense if anyone was trying to enter the room. He's set on preventing any curious bots or humans from interrupting the youngling's slumber that aren't authorized to enter Ratchet's medbay because seriously, you're entering the medbay of the medic of doom, which is guarded by a grumpy velociraptor that has no qualms kicking your ass. So yeah, enter at your own risk. ...it was nice knowing you.

I remembered watching Beast Wars Transformers, and DinoBot was one of my fave characters! I cried when he died in one episode! Weird I know, but he was awesome! Good thing he came back in the future episodes!

I'm pretty proud with how it turned out. I just think it's funny that he's yet another blue skinned dude on my long list of blue skinned dudes/mechs that I'm in love with.
