With this next one, I started doing a new side-story in addition to the spotlights, this time titled The Life and Times of. I did this one to start showing the relationship between different bots since I am introducing a bunch of new characters to build up into the big conclusion of my first main arc. Now I started with Corvettes because the Corvette is my favorite vehicle of all time, and as such it is fitting to show off a couple of my Corvette-formers.
I am introducing a few background characters that will play minor roles in the shattering considering the big change involves my entire collection. In this one, I had the dilemma of ROTF Wheelie's sheer size, I mean he is supposed to be an RC truck, yet he was deluxe sized, and even then he's gigantic. So the deluxe sized monster truck had to go. So he now mass shifts into Cybertron Reverb's alt-mode. Also, points to whoever can say which continuity I referenced and where the reference played into that continuity's story.
The Life and Times of Twins
And that is it! This is finally up to date, so I will be posting the comics daily from here on in, one at a time, twice a day regularly. Now if you have gotten down here, great! Please leave a comment with some thoughts about this, things you like, things you don't like, y'know stuff like that since I am new to this and still have a lot to learn. Thanks for taking a look guys!
And yes, that is totally a complete rip of the FOC Blaster bio since it is easily the best bio I have ever read for a figure :lol I also spent some time with GIMP on this one trying to show how Bumblebee could upgrade like that, since a tiny Bumblebee would get crushed on the battlefield. Upgrading totally sounds like the TARDIS too.
Y'know what, I slept in so late that I just got the first update of the day up, so I'm just gonna put the next one out while I'm on here.
Subterfuge
DUH DUH... DUUHUHHHHHHHH Big reveal time! Yes indeed, the Decepticons have a Nemesis Prime on their side, and they are planning an attack! Find out what happens to our heroes in the next week of.. TheBandWagon's Chronicles!
On a less serious note, Shockwave gets p-ed off in panel 5, and I couldn't figure out a way to make him look p-ed except by making his eye glow more red, so do you guys have any suggestions?
So after careful consideration, I realized I have a few things that I haven't done with my comic thus far that seem to be pretty popular among other comics, so I have decided to do most of them. They include letting a character break the fourth wall, audience interaction, and Q&A's. So I let Optimus break the barrier to ask for some interaction for a Q&A!
This will actually be the final installment in Chronicles for now. Once I have completed the storyline and released it, the Q&A will be a time for reflection among them about the events that have transpired along with the future.
For this, you can submit as many questions as you like, and I will try to get them to answer as many as possible. Remember to put who it is directed to so I know who to ask.
The flight scenes were fun to photograph as always, and a real pain in the butt too. Keeping a figure balanced on two loops of fishing line attached to the end of a cane is.. not easy.. to say the least.
I've gotta say, posing the Constructicons in mid-transformation was a real pain, it's hard to get it to look good. Mixmaster looked pretty cool but took the longest to get into place so he looked like a folded up robot inside of exploded truck panels haha.
