Take away the flowers and the gold leaf and that is so amazing, heck it is amazing anyway.
I'm off to ebay to buy myself a painting.
Now that's art :)
Here's one for anybody who enjoys watching lions and swords
And even bigger lions
Truly amazing!. I really liked it as it was at the early stages with just the blue.
The toy imbedded in the frame is a nice touch.
It reminds me of a giant playing card.
They wouldn't play for me, but i get the idea. They're awesome! The guy has talentQuote:

My only minor criticism is that he painted Megatron with his arms pushed in like they are in gun mode and not extended as they should be in robot mode. Most likely the toy was mistransformed when he used it as a model. Perhaps it's a homage to the number of times TFs are mistransformed in photography and packaging. :p
that painter loves wearing his green jumper heheheh.
Erm wish he didn't put in those flowers in. just ruins it IMO. also for the diamond background if he used the gridline pattern of earlier TF boxes that would be cooler - in red gradient coloring of course.
All in all it's very nice and an awesome creation. Hmmmm... wonder how much Hasbro's gonna charge him for the right in using their intellectual property :D:p
that is an incredible video, so many hours of detailed work, and when you look at it up close at the end, it really shows off just how much detail there is.
Artistry is without a doubt a fine skill.
Looks great!....apart from the flowers.
Not my style but dang that's amazing!
ummm. wow
That's bonza!!!:cool:
love it... just beautiful, flowers and all. :D
That is a pretty damn cool piece of art, I love the fine attention to toy accuracy - Reminds me heavily of the G1 box art but even closer to the actual figures than even that was! :eek::cool:
