So I've spent the last few days laboring over designs for Standing Ground, a story that justbolts first kicked around as a fanfic idea and I volunteered to turn it into a comic.

I did exactly three pieces of transformers fanart before starting on this project and had never drawn any kind of robots before. I tend to go for organic things.

And I've learned one very important lesson: These fuckers are hard to draw!

But I'm starting to get the hang of it. There's definitely a learning curve. I had to scrap one design entirely because I did a couple designs after him and improved my robo-skills so much that he looked completely fugly and box-like in comparison. He is now quite better looking. B)

These designs were a collaborative effort between Bolts and myself. She provided examples of the alt-mode style and function, and pointed me towards helm and body styles she wanted. Ultimately, I ended up designing each vehicle and bot from the ground up, but did look to existing designs for inspiration.

This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to mechs living or dead are purely coincidental.

But enough babble! On to the pics!
