First, let me apologize if this isn't the proper forum to promote my artwork in. I usually only post things related to my 'MOSAIC' projects, and figured since this is where the MOSAIC pieces are posted, it might be okay to post here in the 'Cartoons and Comics' Forum.

This is "A Prime Change", a piece of artwork I'm very proud of. In fact, I'm so pleased with the way John-Paul Bove's colours turned out, I'm going to make a limited number of prints of "Prime Change" available for purchase this coming weekend at Botcon 2009. The pic is based on Alex Ross's recent "Change" poster of President Obama, which I believe was itself based on a previous Alex Ross painting of Clark Kent unbuttoning his business shirt to reveal his Superman "S" underneath. Optimus is depicted as he appears in IDW Publising's Transformers comics.

A couple of good friends of mine have agreed to squeeze in my prints at their table. Details will be forthcoming, so if you are interested, please "stay tuned" and I'll let you know just exactly where you will be able to find these prints.

Comments are welcomed and encouraged. Also, I apologize for the watermark, but I promise I will upload a larger, non-watermarked version once Botcon is over. That way everyone that doesn't get to go to the convention will still be able to get a good look at the artwork (if they are so inclined.)

So, in summary, I hope you like the pic and if you do and you'll be at Botcon, please stop by and purchase a print. Peter Cullen will be in attendance this year. How awesome would it be to get him to autograph one of this pics for you? I'm hoping to make that happen for myself, and I'd love it if anyone else wanted to do the same. And if you like the pic's colors, please stop by J-P's deviant page and tell him just how awesome he is. I owe him a big thanks for making this look so "EPIC" (to quote a good friend of mine that's already seen this pic in all of it's full res glory.)
