The Universe of the Transformers is vast, and populated by many characters. Their universe is a large tapestry, made up of the stories and points of view of countless experiences that serve the larger whole.

These are some of those stories. This is:

Heh, looking at mosaics like this makes me hope that the IDW will continue the Evolutions series...

I'll second that, it was the first thing that crossed my mind when I read it this morning on DeviantArt :)

This is one of the most beautiful mosaics i've ever seen. The art is flawless, and it sets you right there, in the medieval Japan.

I agree with the choice of the font. It was hard to read. But that probably has to do with the low resolution of the image. I think that it would be easier to read (and it would look even better) at a higher resolution.

Needs a higher resolution so it's readable but otherwise an awesome mosaic.

Very well written and the artwork is superb! But for some reason the samurai at the bottom righthand corner looks like Eddie from Iron Maiden, Is he suppose to be Bludgeon?

If you click on the Mosaic piece you can view the full sized version hosted at TF Mosaic's DeviantArt Page. Image size restrictions mean we cannot post the full sized Mosaic, but we always link to a full version one way or another.

Comment by Tirade Jan 13, 2009
Like others have said, beautiful mosaic. My sole complaint: word consistency. One moment, "honourably," is mentioned, then the next, it turns into, "honor." Minor critique, I know. But....if you are going to post this, why not proofread for errors/consistencies?
