It has been brought to my attention that since I shared this someone liked it enough to 3D render it and offer it for sale as a replacement head for the upcoming toy!

If you're attending TFN Manchester remember - I will sketch for you, obviously, BUT I can also colour sketches you've commissioned from ACTUAL artistes, cos I'm a better colourist than wot I am a drawerer (and writer).

How does it work? Why, like this.... kriscarter.sumupstore.com/page/sketche...

Commission from 10+ years ago of Liege Maximo.
At the time, only the G2 version existed, and his face, if he had one, was always shrouded in black shadow, so I had to make a lot of the details up.

Thought it worth sharing, since the new toy has similarly filled out the face.
