I finished up bumblebee and then started on the 7 characters for my friend’s bday on the 12th of August. First one due was IDW thundercracker. His rough sketches all done I just need to line art color and maybe render!

🦾 1981. No movies. No cartoon. No hype.
🦾 Just a 27-year-old artist, an airbrush, and a blank canvas.
🦾 That artist was me.

👋 I'm Mark Watts — the man who painted the G1 Transformers into existence.

🎯 Nearly 50 characters. All mine.
🎯 Bumblebee. Jetfire. Shockwave. Cliffjumper. Brawn. Gears.
🎯 Painted by hand. One stroke at a time.

That box you ripped open on Christmas morning?
That art you couldn't stop staring at?

💥 I made that.

Now I'm 71. Still standing. Still creating.
And yeah — I won't be around forever.

🕰️ So here's your shot:

🖼️ A hand-signed print — from my hands to your wall
💎 Museum quality — worthy of the legend it represents
📦 Direct from my studio — no middleman, no nonsense

⏳ While supplies last — and while I last!
Cheers! 😄

It's a Megatronus the Fallen figure with a 3D printed parts kit plus paints for the purple areas of Megatronus, and I'm really happy with the result.

...or do you find it unnecessary?

People are inventing new things - like TFPrime, TFOne etc. And each of them is good - depending on personal taste.

But isn't it true that everything simple is genius? And that everything we need is to film those legends (especially MTMTE and Lost Light)?

What do you think?

Hello everyone!
Today I come to you with my 3d printed figure of Hefter from the IDW comics, a really cool design that due to his complete lack of importance(dude has at most 2 pages of appearance in the comic) would never get made into a figure. As such I decided to take it upon myself to make it into reality, and I think I succeeded, hopefully you guys think so as well.

Had to put the alt mode here:

If you want to see the figure's showcase you can check it out on my YT channel here:

For those that have been following my updates, I posted a good while ago about the WIP of this project and ended up taking longer than expected to actually finish it up and release the files cause life just decided I wouldn't have any free weekend for the entire last month.

I wanna read through the entire continuity but when it comes to phase 2 im really not attracted to the idea of reading a couple Chapters of one then jumping to another, is there one that better to read in its entirety first then go back for the other?

A group of fans has animated a chapter of the IDW comic *More Than Meets the Eye*—go show them some support!

SND-08 The One Optimus Prime.

I needed this villain in my collection

There's a ton of IDW lore, discussion, and speculation, naturally in these videos. I love IDW 2005 and will take any opportunity to bring it up!

This is a question because I want to read it but it's expenses so if people already read it tell me your thoughts on how good it is

Using various parts from different upgrade kits, I managed to make this version of the IDW Orion Pax. What do you think?
