TransWarp: Csirac - Issue #1

Very cool!

Those 2 new pages look so professional man, awesome progress man

Cheers for the positive comments lads, I'll pass them on.

The Line Artist of the two new pages goes by Channandeller on DA, but for anyone who can remember back to the days of TAAU, he went by the name of Ravage. Otherwise known as Ryan. Top bloke!

Well here's a couple of bonus pics just for you SusPrime:

Ticker:

Mangle:

And the "badass-looking-evil-Rodimusface guy" is actually Magmatron, in a pre-Great Upgrade body:

*Bleep* Yeah Verno! - *Bleep* YEAH! :eek::D:D:D
Channandeller has definitely done a friggin' amazing job, and that 'Pre-Great Upgrade' Magmatron? - Absolutely spot-on perfect; He's what Rodimus would look like if he had 'Ball Bearings' and were a Decepticon/Predacon Leader! ;):cool:

"Cannot wait for more" is an understatement. :)

Here's an update for everyone:

Page 1-6 have been seen previously, and now we have Page 7!

Enjoy!

Another update from the world of TransWarp: Csirac!

Pages 1-7 have been seen previously, now Pages 8-11 are also complete!

http://th01.deviantart.net/fs70/200H...vc-d5exe2k.jpg http://th05.deviantart.net/fs70/200H...vc-d5exeus.jpg http://th08.deviantart.net/fs71/200H...vc-d5f5veb.jpg http://th00.deviantart.net/fs71/200H...vc-d5e5ttw.jpg http://th05.deviantart.net/fs70/200H...vc-d5hr181.jpg http://th05.deviantart.net/fs70/200H...vc-d5fwe2g.jpg http://th06.deviantart.net/fs70/200H...vc-d5muvbv.jpg http://th09.deviantart.net/fs70/200H...vc-d5n2f8h.jpg http://th04.deviantart.net/fs70/200H...vc-d5nu6to.jpg http://th08.deviantart.net/fs71/200H...vc-d5nfh69.jpg http://th00.deviantart.net/fs71/200H...vc-d5mlwm5.jpg

Pages 13-17 are also complete, but I won't post up links to them until age 12 is done, just so you dont read the story out of sequence or with pieces missing.

Enjoy!

:)Keep the updates coming Verno:)

lovin these verno! keep the good work going!

Awesome stuff dude!!!

Cheers Lads!

The Artist colouring Page 12 has told me they'll be done by the 18th... We'll see. I've learnt not to trust Artists too much, as I've just had to cut one of the Colourists as they've being "doing it" for 5 months now.

Hopefully I'll be able to find another Colourist soon :rolleyes:

Really enjoying these, what a great way to cap off a great year for TF collecting :)

Magmatron's pre-upgrade form is so sweet! Both the artist and Verno has done a really great job at depicting him as a mission focused, no-nonsense, front line leader!

I hope we get to see his alt mode in action before things progress too quickly :)

Sadly Magmatron doesn't feature all the prominently in either the TransWarp: Csirac or TransWarp: Ravage stories, though he is certainly present in them.

Yes you really should.

We really see Magmatron shine in a story called Deicide - which is set post-Beast Wars (and basically negates the events of both of the IDW BW Comics, as well as Beast Machines). I should really post the script of Issue #1 of Deicide up for you guys to read...

---

^ All the better to build momentum for a really good Spotlight Magmatron? ;)

G'Day All!

Page 12 has been finished off, so along with the before-seen Pages 1-11, I can now release Pages 12-17 for your enjoyment!

Pages 18 and 22 are almost done, but I don't expect them until the new year, so I'll take this time to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and thank you all for your support over the past couple of months! It's greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
-Verno.

Beautiful! :eek::cool:

It is so thoroughly pleasing to see your work slowly but surely coming to 'visual' life dude, congratulations to you and the artists - When & where can I get my copy? ;):D

Cheers Hursty. Another couple of weeks and Issue #1 should be complete! (Hopefully sooner)

Because Transformers are trademarks and copyrighted and stuff I can't really distribute the Comic, but feel free to download the images and print them out to make a physical comic- that's what I've been doing. Once all the pages are done, I'll do up a quick guide on how to print the pages so they come out in order.

Excellent, I look forward to that post man as I'll also need to make sure I have the appropriate glossy paper & topped-up ink levels. :D

Issue #1 is COMPLETE!

Check out the Gallery on DeviantArt or go back to the First Post.

Enjoy!

The art on pages 21 and 22 look fantastic. :)

It's so nice to see all the pages done!

Cheers Sam. It's a nice feeling to have it done.

3 more Issues to go!

Verno...

These are absolutely amazing dude, some of those pages look absolutely professional! :eek: - I can't wait for the following 3 issues to eventually come into existence too. :cool:

Don't forget to provide those printing instructions for us mate; I'd also suggest your consideration of putting the written versions together in a .PDF file, so there's the option of both written & illustrated versions of these truly epic tales. ;):D

I second that, I was thinking earlier today of taking them to a printing place and getting them run off into my own comic :)

Cheers Hursty. Your support right from the beginning of the project has been fantastic. I could always rely on you for a good morale boost on the slow days!

Ok, here we go:

Printing Instructions:

You will require 7 pieces of paper, A4 or otherwise.

Each piece has 4 pages of the comic printed on it. Two on the front, two on the back.

Piece 1:

Front Left: Intro Page

Front Right: Timeline

Back Left: Back Cover

Back Right: Front Cover

Piece 2:

Front Left: Page 2

Front Right: Preview

Back Left: Expanded Universe

Back Right: Page 1

Piece 3:

Front Left: Page 4

Front Right: Page 21

Back Left: Page 22

Back Right: Page 3

Piece 4:

Front Left: Page 6

Front Right: Page 19

Back Left: 20

Back Right: Page 5

Piece 5:

Front Left: Page 8

Front Right: Page 17

Back Left: 18

Back Right: Page 7

Piece 6:

Front Left: Page 10

Front Right: Page 15

Back Left: 16

Back Right: Page 9

Piece 7:

Front Left: Page 12

Front Right: Page 13

Back Left: 14

Back Right: Page 11

-End-

Now, I would recommend doing it in a Word document. Have 14 pages with two of the comic pages on each with the page set out in landscape. Print the first 7 pages, then turn them around and carefully print the other 7 pages, making sure you're matching up the correct 7 pieces.

I hope that makes sense. If not, just shoot me any questions and I'll clarify.

So cheers lads, I'm glad you've taken the time to read it all, and stay tuned for more to come in the future!

The text-only versions of Csirac 1-4 are online on DeviantArt, as are those for Ravage, Primal and Maxim. If need be I'll compile them all in a be-all-and-end-all version of the entire TransWarp story in the future, for the likes of Hasbro and IDW to read :p

Read the first one. Really impressive Vern. That's some good stuff right there. That's some good cereal right there.:p:cool:

Cheers Mate. I appreciate you having a flick through it! :cool:

For anyone wondering how Issue #2 of TransWarp: Csirac is coming along:

http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/i/20...vc-d69he4k.jpg

I'd say it's coming along pretty well :cool:
