That's the same take they did for the movie.

I think BB is done quite well. One of the best fan-made, I believe. Some people draw humans better, others TFs. I drew Vertity as practice and was pleasantly surprised. Now if I can get my TFs to be as good...

Glad you're all still enjoying these pieces.
I'll try and answer a few of the questions about this piece.
Is this a reference to the More Than Meets the Eye Part 3?
Not intentionally, that i know of. There has been a lot of negative comments about the humans in IDW's Transformers, so JJ (The Writer) wanted to try and bring some people round.
How many are there?
There are 10 Mosaics which have been "released" elswhere, "Penumbra" being the 10th. The other 6 will be released here, once a day, until they're all up. After that, they will be released every Monday.
There are currently over 60 more in production, with more getting added every week. So as I've said before, get comfortable.
What's BB carrying?
It's a fast food menu. Kris (The Artist) used to design them for a living, so it's a personal "easter egg" for him.
To be honest I don't feel that the art is up to par with the other Mosaics. Don't get me wrong, it's much better than anything I could draw, but it doesn't have the "professional" feel that the others do.
Kris also drew "Destiny" and will be the first to admit that his "humans" need a lot of work.
Bumblebee looks awesome there. I'm still not too sure how this connects w/Infiltration though....but I like it nonetheless!
This isn't set durring a specific moment during IDW's Infiltration / Escalation series. Just somewhere in the story.
Hope that answers most of the questions, but White Rabbit and I are always lurking around if you've got more.
Thanks again

Yes indeedy, but now that we're "offical" over here at Seibteron, the back log is being re-released over here.

Kind of, but not really. The larger picture is the Transformers Universe that consists of all the varying continuities. The individual Mosaics don't intentionally tie in together.
I think it's great that fans are creating comics that fit in the new SimFur continuity. I'm even happier that they are doing so not worrying about whether or not their art is the most perfect art that has ever been produced. So these aren't professional level quality... so what? It's that fan-level, heartfelt quality that transmits a real love for the characters and the situations. You guys rock; keep up the good work!
Thanks, that's exactly what this project is all about.
Well, they look like a comic strip are are written like one. I kind of like the "homemade" feel; you can tell some real love and work went into it, you know, like Grammy's cookies or something. I think the art has been pretty good. All of the strips so far have been pretty clear and easy to follow. That is ALWAYS a plus with comics.
Thanks for the suport
