I made this piece mostly so I could see it as a Gold Foil Print. It needed to be shiny! Available on my store if your interested, link in bio, and PROMO CODE: ChasingCanadaDay for 10% off until July 5th!
Unicorn Gundam: Destroy Mode. Love the design of this suit- especially when it’s wearing all the bells and whistles. I drew the Unicorn years ago, but wanted to revisit the piece.
I’ve made this piece available as a normal print and a Limited Edition Red Foil Print on my store (link in bio)

A parody of Unicron drinking “Energon” wine, in honor of the late Orson Welles, whom voiced Unicron in the Transformers 1986 Movie, and was also famous for his wine ads and commercials during the last few years of his life.
I was commissioned to draw this via DeviantArt! Enjoy!
This is why I have been quiet on the art front from the start of this year.
A personal project of mine where I wanted to push myself in creating a large image and using programs that I’m not familiar with.
With it being the 35th Anniversary this year (yeah I’m two months early, but I got impatient) I thought it would be cool to do my own take on this great film.
I also pretty much recreated the old Panini sticker book cover with the 1986 cast that both me and my brother had as children.
Anyways, big thanks to both Joe and Emily for giving me feedback when I’ve been working on this.
(Sighs) I keep thinking how all the Thirteen Primes were/are essentially war deities.
I keep thinking how Megatronus and Prima are supposed to be foils of one another, and how Primus created Megatronus to have closer nature to Unicron in order to understand and defeat him. (But are Primus and Unicron not brother-twins as well? Opposites and Equals?)
I keep thinking about Megatronus Prime and what it means to be Fallen.
I keep thinking that perhaps there was something else hidden within the fallout between all of them, especially since there were hints of how allegiances were divided among them. How the death of Solus is only spun as a great tragedy by someone else’s hand when perhaps it could have been a triumph of her own making. She was held to the current day as the Greatest Artificer, especially in a time where Magic and Science was at the height of its power, so who’s to say she didn’t have a vision?
I keep thinking how Megatronus Prime Fell, and how he could have found himself upon a younger Earth; how Unicron, even deep in the throes of his slumber is still spiteful enough to take away his brother’s creation and remake him into his own. Despite Megatronus is already a strange reflection of him by Primus’ hand.
Basically I keep thinking how Megatronus would wander across the Earth, held to be born by the merciless sea -Vengeance and Violence, Rage and Ruin, War incarnate by the various peoples.
And I really want Megatronus, either as a mech or a reborn deity with broken memories interact with other gods and beings. Like you cannot tell me that Megatronus won’t have a long-time love affair with both Aphrodite and Hephaestus to the point that Megatronus is confused for Ares and Aglaea.
Megatronus finds comfort in the craftsmen’s burning, rough hands and in the goddess’s playful eyes and quick words. (Liege Maximo was recorded to have close friendships to Megatronus and Solus. Who’s to say he wasn’t closerto them?)
Megatronus would have a total bromance with Ares, a steady friend in Hermes, be Very Complicated with Athena, and absolutely throw hands with Zeus.
And they all question Megatronus’ relationship with Amphitrite. No one knows that she was Oceana and Oceanus, and many, many others - the sea always constant even with its ever-shifting waters, the source of all life and the death of many. She was there when Megatronus was found and reborn.
Time for the third instalment of the Truth on Micron Legend! Here we take a look at the B Team. A majority of these episodes are still very good, some almost good enough to make the cut for an A Team level episode. The most prolific directors in this field is Masayuki Motsumoto, having directed Confrontation,Swoop,Vacation, Tactician, Detection, Past Part 1, Threaten, Puppet and Alliance. A rather mixed bag here. All these episodes feature some great animation as well as some that is less than stellar and the ratio is often very different. Past, Part 1 would probably be the most consistent outing.
It’s a very strong episode, but nothing that is truly amazing.
Many other episodes feature small amounts of really strong animation but overall are very average. I’ve mentioned before that it’s likely that Hidehito Ueda contributed many small sequences throughout the series, but here I don’t think that’s the case for the most part.
Masayuki’s quality animation is very stylised. It’s not like anything we’ve looked at before. Very harsh lines and shadows.
Alliance is probably the poorest episode, featuring many colouring errors (some which were not even present in the unfinished version!), scale problems, and overall poor animation. However, it does feature Unicron’s transformation, which is fantastic sequence, so I guess that’s where the budget on that episode was funnelled.
Next up is Shigeki Hatayama, who directed such episodes as Comrade, Underground, Credulous, Reinforcement, Awakening and Sacrifice. Shigeki episodes are typified by being very strong overall, but often featuring small amounts of very poor, off model animation.
Underground being the exception, which is overall a pretty poor outing.
Ken'ichi Ishikura directed the episodes Rescue, Uprising and Union. These three episodes have a huge disparity in quality. Rescue is pretty average with some very strong moments here and there. Union is almost good enough to be a A quality episode, though I do think significant amounts of this episode were directed by the mysterious director who worked on the revised animation in the series. Uprising, on the other hand is one of the poorest episodes in the whole series.
Lots of off model drawings, a huge lack of shading and detail.
It’s an unfortunate beginning to the last arc of the series, which after this, would be a very strong batch of episodes.
Next we have a group of directors who each appeared only once in the series. Ryo Motohira who directed Carnival, Shigeki Awai who directed Ruin and Mihiro Yamaguchi who directed Mars. All of these episodes are pretty strong and consistent. Carnival features a lot of nice, dynamic animation.Ruin has a beautiful underwater colour palate.Mars is pretty consistent but does feature some weird moments here and there.
Finally there’s time to mention Satoru Kusuda, who only seemed to work as a co-director on episodes such as Underground,Credulous, Conspiracy and Tactician. Because of this, it’s really hard to determine what effect Satoru had on the animation in these episodes.
So that’s the B Team. Average, gets the job done but nothing really amazing. Next time it’s the C Team, who barely make the cut for watchable episodes.

Im doing a Myth Inktober and my comic, Ouramyr, as the main theme. Ouramyr is about all mythical creatures and beings in one world, which are called sages. An aristocrat named Inez sees that there importance brings balance to the world.
