This one is really excellent! I had G1 Motormaster as a kid so that was a very cool touch for me.

This one was very gritty, and I like the Autobots being in a position where the Decepticons are truly menacing and are forcing the good guys to make hard choices. It's intense, and it's an image of the Decepticons I really like. In G1 they're (in my opinion) often portrayed as bumbling nuisances that retreat all the time, but evil, effective depictions of Decepticons are where it's at ;)

Motormaster always was a caniving, thieving little butthole. Makes sense he would destroy an entire city for one guy. Of course, Megatron would probably do the same. It's kinda sad how Prowl treated Bluestreak at the end. :-(

prowl is a primus be damned prick in need of a serious glitch slapping right now

lackluster compared to the prime and megatron one

Personally, I found the Megatron/Prime one to overrrated. I liked this one but then I love Prowl and like Bluestreak in the cartoon.

Great art. I like Prowl's portrayal. He may be a prick but this story shows he's no wimp either. Plus he's not a complete prick, he did forgive Bluestreak.

Strangely I've been wondering about these two lately. Bluestreak's bio has him as the last survivor of his city. Wiki tells us that this city is Praxus. Both War Within and TFWiki tell us that Prowl is also from Praxus which contradicts Bluestreak's lone survivor bio.

I like the idea that they're from the same city. Their similar appearance fits in with that. I like the idea that they might even be related. If properly written, they could have as interesting a 'brother' dynamic as the Lambo Twins had in Dreamwave. This mosaic looks like a great start to such a dynamic.

Excellent mosaic.

Agreed, the Megatron/Prime one was kind of done before in the sense that the villain attempts to say he is the same, and then the good leader defies him with meaningful dialogue (still was a good mosaic though).
This mosaic is pretty awesome, and again, agreed regarding prowl not being just "a prick" but more of a klingon personality who would prefer the honourable route even at the cost of his life, and anyone who steals that from him is not really his new best buddy.

:CON:

The last part would be: "The paradox raised here is irresoluble"

Being From Argentina, a spanish talking country, I prolly shouldn't say this, but hey, if this forum is in english, people should post in english whenever possible... I'm guessing if Lackadaisical liked the mosaic that much, he evidently learnt english at some point...

HUGE thanks to all the positive response to this mosaic. I'm really proud of the story and couldn't be happier with how the art came together.

This is more or less the first part in a larger story I'm putting together. If all goes well, the next part should be out in a month or so, so stay tuned...

Can't wait to see the rest, I'm sure that will be brilliant also!

Thanks for all your positive responses people! We stand firmly behind this piece, I myself am very proud of it.

Aye, noted, Griftimus. The Megs/Prime Mosaic is fantastic. Could you please elaborate on your argument though? That would make for a much more interesting discussion. And mind you, I could go on all weekend long if need be! ;)

Great Mosaic, I really love that Prowl was written like his Budiansky version.
