The always excellent Ken Christiansen, cover and concept artist on several Transformers incarnations from IDW Publishing and more, has dropped by to let us know about what he'll be bringing along to BotCon 2014 - check out more info below, or head to his blog, and take a look at the two exclusive prints he'll be selling!

As a reminder, Ken will also be part of the big The Art of Prime signing on the Wednesday before the convention - read more here.

BotCon 2014, in Pasadena Ca, at the Pasadena Convention Center, 300 E Green St 91101 June 20th-22nd.

As usual, I'll be selling prints, sketchbooks, original artwork, and taking commissions in the Artist Alley. Commissions are first come first serve, each day of the con. I will be taking on 6 more Pre-order commissions for pick up at the con. Contact ken@badflip.com, if you're interested.

I'll have two new prints with me, plus the original paintings for sale, Grimlock, and a GI Joe/TF crossover!

More artist news for and from BotCon. Transformers: Robots in Disguise superstar Andre Griffith dropped by Seibertron.com to remind everyone that not only he's attending both Special Edition: NYC and BotCon 2014, he will also be selling all the usual goodies and the brand new Whirl print below - make sure to drop by his tables and check out his work!

It will be debuting at NY Comic Con Special Edition this weekend June 14-15, and I will also have it at Botcon in Pasadena later in the month. It features everyone's favorite maniac from More Than Meets the Eye, Whirl.
