Hello! OptimalOptimus2 here! And today, for the first time ever on Seibertron, a new dramatic and action filled fan-fiction comic series is coming soon! The title and background story will be revealed soon, so in the meantime enjoy the Optimus Prime photo to promote the new series. (Sorry, I can't draw).

Have you considered trying something like a photocomic or asking others on here to help you out with the artwork? I'd hate to see a potentially promising project undermined by its presentation.

That'll be time consuming since there's a lot of members. It will take me longer to make the actual comic. Photocomics isn't necessary for my new series because all of the Transformers have new designs. I don't know any members who can draw better than me and I'm afraid to ask. Taking away from someone's time who isn't willing to do it would be bad on my part.

[Va'al]

I would suggest posting a thread or message in here, the Fan Artwork section, looking for someone with drawing skills that can help out.

Seriously, we're a nice bunch, you shouldn't be afraid!

OO2, if you want some drawing help, shoot me a PM. Not sure how intensive you're needing, but I would be happy to talk more with you about it and see where you're at, and if I could help.

Otherwise, I definitely recommend tapping into some of the site's talent. I'm sure you could find people would love to collaborate!

[OptimalOptimus2]

This is OptimalOptimus2 again! You may know that there would be a new fan-fiction comic series coming soon on Seibertron, but you don't know the story's background. The story takes place a century after the Transformers crash landed on Earth from Cybertron. However, they disappeared. Earth has been mourning the disappearance of the Transformers until they return starting a new battle on Earth. Enjoy the picture of Bumblebee below, for this isn't his final design. (Again, sorry if I can't draw on a computer.)

Wait...is that a pun?
Be happy with all the drawings that I have. The art doesn't matter, it's the story. Everybody's drawings are different and unique in a way.

[OptimalOptimus2]

The new title for the new Transformers fan-fiction comic book series has been revealed! It's called Transformers: Advanced Combat. Check out the logo below.

The first issue will be coming soon, so wait patiently please.

[OptimalOptimus2]

This is OptimalOptimus2! Today, I have released some concept art for my new comic series that will be released soon. Just to notify you all that this is concept art. Anything weird on the pictures are just my mistakes. More concept art will be released so wait patiently please. That also goes for the final art renders that'll be released soon as well. So, enjoy the photos below for they do not represent their actual appearance in the comics.





Please give me your opinions below and tell me what you think about the characters.

[OptimalOptimus2]

This is OptimalOptimus2 at it again! Today, the picture of Lockdown's concept has been revealed. A recent character that doesn't like to take sides has a terrifying crooked hook and is missing an eye with has a large scar over its socket. The details of his accident will be explained when you read my comics. So enjoy the picture below and give me your thoughts.

Update:
Here's the concept image of Whirl.

Also, Chromia is a new recruit of the Wreckers. I didn't put the insignia on her picture. Sorry.

[OptimalOptimus2]

I used Bumblebee's concept as a template. I might be doing that for a lot of characters (Kickback is an exception). By adding more detail and shading, he looks a lot more better than before. Check out the picture below and stay alert for more final renderings.

[OptimalOptimus2]

Here are the final renderings of Starscream and Ironhide.


More final images are coming soon, so stay alert.

[OptimalOptimus2]

Down below is an image of Ratchet. This is his final design since I don't believe that I can do any better.

I added wheels to Lockdown's arms and legs. This is his final representation.

The next characters that'll be coming up, Optimus Prime and Megatron, the pair you all have been waiting for. Stay updated for them.

[OptimalOptimus2]

OptimalOptimus2 is here to bring exciting news! The moment you all have been waiting for...Optimus Prime and Megatron has been revealed! I also added a picture of Chromia's final render and Jetfire! Check their images below.




Don't believe that you have seen all of Jetfire. This is him without his weapons. Stay alert for more pictures of Transformers coming soon. They will be the last characters that I will reveal publicly before the release of the comics.

[OptimalOptimus2]

Hello, this is OptimalOptimus2. I need some concept artists for locations for my comic. Here is the list below:

1. A futuristic city: I want a drawing of a city with futuristic buildings, grass, trees, and/or (this is optional) a sea.

2. Tyrannis: I want a drawing of the Decepticon ship Tyrannis. It looks intimidating and it's enormous. I also want a drawing of the interior. It can be from a lab to a hangar, or the cockpit.

3. Arkorps Tower: I need a skyscraper with big letters on the top saying "Arkorps" for my comics. I want an interior drawing as well. The walls and floors are white.

4. Cybertron: I need a drawing of Cybertron's destruction. Nothing really specific.

5. Residential Suburbs: I need a drawing of a futuristic suburb. Not all houses must be white.

6. Abandoned Power Plant: I need a drawing of an abandoned power plant. It is, however, not futuristic, but present day looking.

7. Large Abandoned Warehouse: A present day looking warehouse. However, this one is large. I also need the interior of it, for it's the Autobots' base.

If you're interested in drawing these, please reply by PM by or before June 27. FYI, if you are interested, make sure all of the drawings are in color.

Be grateful with all the drawings that I have. The art doesn't matter, it's the story. Everybody's drawings are different and unique in a way. It doesn't matter if the drawings are terrible or not in a comic, it's about its content. I hope you understand. Now I promised the Seibertronians a comic series and that's I promise I'm keeping.

[OptimalOptimus2]

Here are the final pictures for these characters. There are more characters in the comic than you think, but this will be the last time I'm going to release pictures of characters in the comic. Check them out below.


This is a picture of the main human protagonist, Jeffrey Witwicky, grandson of Daniel Witwicky. Drawing on the computer is hard, but this is the best person I've ever made, really.

Transformers: Advanced Combat is a fan-fiction comic series made by me, OptimalOptimus2. The release date for Transformers: Advanced Combat #1 is set for July 13. This is the official release date of the comic.

[OptimalOptimus2]

As you all may know Transformers: Advanced Combat #1 will be released July 13. The issue's name is called, "The Arrival Part 1". Here's the cover image that I have made. Check it out.

[OptimalOptimus2]

Just to let everyone know, a one page preview of "The Arrival Part 1" will be coming soon. The official date is set for July 1. Soon, you'll get a taste of what the comic will be like. Make this the most anticipating thing that you are going to read this summer and please look forward to it.

[OptimalOptimus2]

Here is a one page preview that'll tease you for the issue. Check the page down below.

A century after the Transformers crash landed on Earth in Transformers: Generation 1, human technology advanced without the Transformers due to their sudden disappearance. The Autobots and Decepticons have returned to Earth to start a new battle with upgraded Transformers technology far better than before. "The Arrival Part 1" will be released July 13.

[OptimalOptimus2]

Hello everybody. OptimalOptimus2 requires help from fellow Seibertronians. I need someone who knows how to draw on a computer for this. I'm running a little slow. The Independence week has slowed me down and I'm just starting the sequence of the last act of The Arrival Part 1. I need someone that has experienced computer drawing on Microsoft Paint, Photoshop, Gimpshop, etc. (any type of program). Not only am I asking for drawers, but story writers as well. I'm giving some Transformers fans the opportunity to write plots and dialogue in my comic.

The reason why I'm asking for help is that making a single comic story takes a long time. One page took me over 4 hours to make. I'm doing something different in the Fan Artwork section and I want to continue doing it. The more people are interested, my comics can have better drawings, more pages, and less waiting time for an issue. If you are interested in helping me making this a team job, contact me by PM anytime.

Note: I'll notify if the group gets too large.

[OptimalOptimus2]
