N00b piping in here. A quick rundown of what this pic is all about. If you're at all familar with the Transformers franchise, you'll know that there's a bunch of comics being made by a Canadian company (woot) named Dreamwave (they're pretty awesome, pick up a copy of whatever series they have going, there's three of them, or will be in October). To further satiate the absolutely rabid Transfandom (believe me, I've lurked there, it's madness), they makes posters and lithographs. And two of the posters are group pics of every Optimus Prime and Megatron ever made. So, about, say, 10 minutes ago, an idea chopped into my head: why not draw one of those for the TMNT?

So, here is the rough, un-inked version of my first fanart, a turtle's worse nightmare: an army of Shredders! With pencil in hand and the official site's handy toy archive, I drew up a pretty decent picture. The inked and coloured versions will follow (the coloured version will probably be interdepent of the inked version, i.e. it'll be coloured on the computer in Paint of all things-so sue me, I'm poor). Just follow the linkie here:

Comments and constructive crits are welcomed and appreciated. After this, I plan on doing a TMNT team group pic, so look out for that.

Ooh... Sweet! I like it, RS! Are all of those Shredders actual versions of him?? I recognize a few, but a lot of 'em don't look familiar... Can't wait to see the final product of your drawing! :anime:

Yep, they're all real Shreds: most of 'em are toys from the original line. The pics at Ninjaturtles.com aren't exactly Supah Cleeah, so that's why some of them could be hard to recognize. I'll put up a list of all the Shreds I used later.

Oh, so they're mostly Shredders from the different toy versions!! Sweet! A list or legend would be quite helpful in identifying all the Shredders. :D

you could make one of those thing like in the Sergent Pepper album that identifies everybody in the pic, do you know what I'm talking about?
