Hello, CoT viewers! Welcome to my non-Bionicle related art topic. As you will soon see, I've had a bit more practice drawing some things other than Bio-Mechanical beings. And yes, I love Transformers. I also love dragons.

We'll see how it goes, and I may post more. I do requests (though, Transformers wise, I limit them to G1, RiD, and Animated). If any wants me to do a pic, just PM me.

You draw dragons so GOOD =D!! Especially that earth dragon
'Bee's head is a bit oddly shaped in some places, Optimus looks awesome though, good job =D

Thank you, Dex. Optimus took the longest of all of them.

Very nice Novu. I like Wreck-Gar a lot... "I am Wreck-Gar, I am only good for one thing, GARBAGE!"[/endquote] I like the butcher knife and other weapons. Good work! (I'm sending a request!)

Alright! Two new things. The first is
this, and the second, a request from DB, is
this. I'll post your other request in the normal art forum seeing as it's Bionicle related.

Very nice new art. Of course, you linked to the hatchling in the first post instead of Lugnut.

Very nice work on him though. Love the detail. Good work on the hatchling too.
DexStar
Jun 2 2008, 01:04 PM
The detail on the hatchling is wonderful, do you have a particular style of drawing your dragons? Becausse they always seem to turn out the best
Lugnut is very detailed, but his posistion is very awkward, and the dust doesn't look like dust

Yeah... I don't like dust. The position is awkward because his hand punch thing just back-fired on him and he's flying backwards out of the explosion.
New one up, a requested pic from someone on another forum.

You seem to have trouble drawing 'Bee's head, there's a tutorial on the official TF website that might help, good job on Sari, though she doesn't look as 'cartoony' as she does on the cartoon (Understandable)

I wish i could draw as good as u!
DexStar
Jun 10 2008, 01:49 PM
Baby Blitz is good, expect for the fact he appears to just be a miniaturized version of himself, where as I'd be expecting oversized feet/head/hands etc., more like a chibi, y'know?
Toa Novu

Finished him Dex.

Wow, seriously Novu, you draw dragons GREAT and considering they're in pen too, do you have a technique? I need to improve my dragon drawing skills :
Toa of Dancing

Nice new art. The newest dragon is amazing, very nice. Although I really am annoyed at the back-right leg. Otherwise it's good. Baby Blitz is very nice.

Not really. Just... Draw a reptile like creature with wings and a few other traits.

Thank you, DB. Yes, I'm annoyed with that one as well. Oh well.
New one: Just a quicky sketch of a human in a TF fan fic I'm working on.
JarredEdit: Another new one,
Jewel. She's Korin's (the annoying teen) younger sister. Oh, and the human in the Sky-Byte pic is Koji.
DexStar
Jun 28 2008, 11:50 AM
Aww, Jewel is so cute! You wouldn't think she was related to Korin ^^
But the wings are very awkward the way they're protuding from her shoulders

MY all-time favorite is the hatchling, and the basic sword is awesome, I wouldn't mind someone cleaving my head off with that!

I skipped over the entire Transformers Animated. IT's not you, it's me. They ruined transformers with the animated, they lost their robot-ness (and i never 100% liked them but...)

That's fine. Everybody is aloud to have their own opinion. I personally despise the '07 movie.

Exactly.
New pic up. Please ignore the stuff that you can kind of see in the back. I forgot that I had something behind the page when I scanned it.

Sari is cool. Very nice coloring. I'm sure it was hard getting the colors exactly like that. I don't mind the colors behind it. They don't mess the pic up, I think. Very nice drawing.
Toa Novu

Thanks, bro.
I drew this one while listening to the song "Zero" by Hawk Nelson. Wow. That song is beyond sad. Used a random picture from google as a reference.

Oblivion is nice, the face is a bit oddly shaped though
Captured scares me, I don't know why, but it has a feeling of creepiness about it
Good job!

Wow. Those are very good. You nailed sky-byte's face and Wreck-Gar's screaming "GARBAGE!" expression right on. But you didn't give starscream a five foot tall chin... And by the way I only saw the transformers. sorry. But great!

Huh, so that 'bot is you...I wondered, I saw a robot like that on devART, on your little lit tag, thought it was an actual Transformer.x3 Of course I would, being clueless.=P
-Raia-
Toa Novu
Aug 14 2008, 09:30 PM
I'm glad you like it, Raia.
Yeah, the bot's me. I'm still working on the basic design, such as this doodle of her/me.
Doodle.
DexStar
Aug 15 2008, 07:53 AM
The 'bot you, really looks too 'organic', mostly in the face, with the hair
Toa Novu
Aug 18 2008, 04:59 PM
It's not hair. It's a helmet.

I seem to have a habit of updating things in twos...
First, I've been trying to practice drawing Seeker heads. Haven't been doing to well. (Cyclonus's head popped up just 'cause he's cute.)
Seeker HeadsBUNNY! *Clears throat* I mean, my next pic is of Cyclonus from G1. He became second in command when Galvatron blasted Startscream. He is a great warrior and who am I kidding he is way to cute!
Bunny!
DexStar
Aug 19 2008, 09:15 AM
Well the helmet looks like hair which makes it seem too organicy
I love the Cyclonus one, it looks like you've hurt his feelings, maybe you shouldn't call him a bunny?

The seeker heads are OK, but they might look a bit better if you draw in pencil, IMO

Have you looked at most of the cannonical fembots? Elita-1 in Animated is one that definitely comes to mind.
But... I like calling him Bunny. And so do most of the other fan girls who like him.
I did it in pen to try to get a better feel. Like I said, it was more a practice than anything else.
Anywho, I've gotten into this graphical novel series called Hand of the Morning Star. My fav character from it is Tempest/Michael Tempe. So, I drew him, like I do any fav.
Calm Before the StormEdit: A gift for a friend on another forum.

Yes, all of the above things rock. Well, except for your socks. They stink, bro.
Anyway, here's another attempt at drawing Bakar, my fan character for a book series called Dragon Keeper.

You draw heads good too *Has trouble with heads*
The only complaint is it looks a bit square, or maybe it's rectangular
Or oblongish

Sep 21 2008, 05:22 PM
Bellbottoms*Cough*
I blame this one on too much Mexican food in the last 24 hours.
Anyway, yeah, it does look a bit long, Dex. This is partially because he's a Bisonbeck, not a human, and they're proportions are slightly different. It's also partially do to the fact that I'm still not that great at drawing heads yet. XP
DexStar
Sep 22 2008, 02:14 PM
Do not blame spicy Mexican food, blame wild imagination

Sunstorm is not amused
His head's a bit big, but that's my only gripe
