Title should say enough. This artwork is still a work-in-progress, and is being produced as a result of a partnership between myself and the garage kit's creator, Griffith76 (Eric Chan). The finished piece will grace the boxes the kit itself is packaged in. I should say that we have plans to continue this partnership, post-HoS01, with an array of projects (which I personally hope lead to a HoS Shockwave, muwahaha).

Anywho, enjoy the look.

You can also check out the first prototypes, a classic color scheme as well as a Nemesis variant, painted up beautifully by Sabsabby (Sabrina Ng), on her Flickr account - ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/28208106@N06/ ). It was auctioned off on Ebay for $600+. Not bad for a fan project, eh?

It's very good, I used to do a lot of grayscale sketching. This is, of course, blatant advertising! Why not advertise it a bit more by posting it here?

Looks great. Can't wait to see it when it's done.

By the way, I saw the plaques on SabSabby's blog. Did you do the graphics for that too? It looks great.

Why thank you, but no! :> The artwork on the plaques is actually made from the renders in Griffith76's modelling program. Pretty simple, and in effect, a perfect representation.

Wow. This is so cool. I know I would want to buy the figure if they ever produce it. Very nice work.

Alty on YouTube · by **Altitron** » Mon Feb 16, 2009 6:26 am

Well, it actually is. Griffith76 is producing a custom-made resin garage kit. The art that I'm doing is actually the box art for his kits.

I believe I included a lot of links detailing the figure in my inital post. Check 'em out!

Hey guys..

I am from Singapore, and I really love Altitron's aka Alty's stuff. I am sure many of us are impressed by him too!

In fact, having him involved with the HOS box-art with two of TF.SG forum members (griffith and sabrina) has made the admin team decided to interview him!

We have front paged his interview btw!

The face reminds me of Mazinger, I also like a lot how the joints look.

Seibertron.com member and Transtopian Altitron had the opportunity of being part of a custom H.O.S. Optimus Prime figure project. His part was to create the boxart for this amazing custom toy project.
Please just enjoy this truly stunning piece of art:

And with a more G1 styled box backdrop:

Further information about this custom toy can be found here.

Yup. That just kicks ass! Definite buy! :APPLAUSE:

It looks kick-a..! I saw on the site that presale has been discontinued for this item though. Any chance on this seeing a wider release? I'm sure a lot of seibertronians are going gahgah over this figure.
