Artist's Comments

EDIT on Dec. 10, 2008:
Darkened the picture to bring out the detail and was able to bring it into better focus.


This is Ironhide from the 2007 Transformers Movie.

I drew this with a #2 mechanical pencil, .7mm lead, free hand. It took 4 hours to draw.

OMG, I bow to anyone who has drawn or even attempted to draw this mech. I was amazed at how much more difficult his is to draw than Optimus. There are so many angles and the shading had to be done for better detail on this one.

Again, not a steady hand when it comes to straight lines and curves, but I find that, with this particular drawing, it worked for me.

Enjoy!

Yeah, thanks dude! I think I'll have four drinks...one for each hour it took me to draw this. LOL! And yea, I figure an entire, detailed, body drawng could take up to 12 hours. The cannons alone would be eye numbing! Have you really taken a good look at those things? They look like turbo engines from a jet. Freaking awesome detail!

Oh yea, I'd need a whole case of drinks after that:)

Daaaaang. Ironhide is freakin' awesome! Is this the finished copy or a WIP? :D
:icontransflashbacks:
My God I might faint with envy! And I thought drawing dragons was hard. Humans are impossible. But Ironhide takes the cake. Do another one, please! And then teach me how, lol

Freakin' sweet! Thanks! This is a finished copy, yes. I would love to do a full body and have a photo of the pose I would like to draw, but it is something that will have to wait until I have more time...It will take some time to do;)
:iconletohatchee:
Oh, hahahaha! LOL! Yea, this was quite a bit difficult on the eyes. I'll do another one at some point:) Thank you for the encouragement:)

I bow back to you! I tried drawing him and then left him to rot in a corner half-completed. I'm still very proud of the work I've done, but I just can't bring myself to finish the poor old guy...

Great fraggin' work!
