Megatron: Exile pt 5 END

Description

So in doing this comic, I realized a few things.

1) I don't think there was any real way to rework Megs into a good-guy.  There just isn't.  This is a guy who built his entire life around getting back at an oppressive system and the complacent folks who allowed it to continue, so he's never not going to believe that his cause (at least initially) was just.

2) I really freaking love drawing space.  Space is awesome.  But then I watch Star Trek and it reminds me that space is essentially Australia in that everything is trying to kill you.

3) My tablet is a damn trooper for putting up with all the work I put into this.  This is easily the most detail I've done in a digitally colored comic yet, so I'm pretty proud of myself and consider this an accomplishment.

So there you have it.  My take on Megs' thoughts after Predacons Rising.

Altogether, this is actually a 10-page comic; each of the Megatron: Exile deviations are actually two 8 1/2 by 11 pages put together in Photoshop Elements.  As per usual, pages were drawn in pencil and inked with PITT pens, after which they were scanned and colored digitally in Photoshop Elements 9. 

Welp.  My job is done here.  Now it's time to go and watch me some Rescue Bots.

Wow... Just wow..


This was absolutely beautiful, and I sincerely wish that this was canon.


Your art style was gorgeous in a detailed yet simplistic way, and the poetic feel to Megatron's words fit his character perfectly.


Wonderfully done!
