Hello all, today is indeed a good day, by dumb luck I found this awesome forum!
I was a big fan of this little line back in the 80s and Ive recently discovered them all over again. Im pleased to say Im having an absolute ball!
About a month ago my buddy mentioned that he was putting together an article for Hasbros Official Transformers Collectors Club newsletter. He asked me if I would be interested in doing some original artwork for the piece. Ive done some work for them before and remembering how much I loved this line as kid, I jumped at the chance. Since then Ive gone completely nuts! Researching, reading, drawing and buying these wonderful creatures. Ive even taken to selling some of my Star Wars collection to finance my new BB habit.
So anyway, I just wanted to say hello. Im looking forward to getting to know all the regulars here and Im looking forward to being part of this thriving BB community. I plan on doing more artwork, I want to start writing some fan fic and even doing some custom work. I have truely been inspired, so thank you!
Later!
Silent Rob

Hey guys, I just got a peek at the Transformers Club magazine that I did the art for. The piece looks great and you guys are really going to like it. My art is placed in the background and they only used Fly Sailor and Sledgehammer Elephant but Im still pretty proud of it. Check it out if you get a chance.
