I just realised I was ment to do an etching for scary art teacher tomorrow, eep. (the metal kind of etching, not the Etachasketch kind)

So! My question is, which Tf should I make an old-skool etching of? (im serius, it would be ace!!) Im gonna use the gallery here for refence, n probally a movie figure, as they are all bumpy like. Any ideas??

If i get it done(and it dosnt suck) I will post a pic.

Siren Prime got here first, so movie Screamer it is! It will be my first go at this, but if I do it right it could look pretty nifty in this style. If it works, I'l take a stab at BB too.

Picks Tuesday maybe :D

Darn... I was going to say you should do the original Optimus Prime, it's an iconic image that everyone should know! (plus, you could use the boxart image on the front!)

G1 Ironhide, IDK why but I see him as a good etch.

All good very sugestions! I'm about to go start Starscream, and if he ends up ok, I will try everyone else too. Bear in mind, I have no idea what I'm doing :P

Right, finally done lol, it's Movie Starscream. Only took a few hours, but I been stupor busy. I have no idea how Grim gets so much done...

Anyway, I think he looks ok for a first try, altough the acid didnt bite in some of the finer lines properly so they dont show. And someone scratched the plate, so he's got some random lines he aint ment to have. It's a learning curve I guess.

Oh well, tell me what you think!

And the plate too, sorry my scanners rather, lame...
