TF Desolation

Proof I’m still working on this project: New preview from issue 3 - need to finish the backgrounds and ink some missing lines though. Just have 2 more pages to finish drawing then I can start colouring. #Transformers #TransformersVictory #TransformersHeadmasters

You are way too kind - it is always heartwarming to see the good that the UK Transformers fan community does for each other.

This is incredible! It looks like what a second episode of transformers Zone would have been.

Why is my timeline clogged up with just absolute horrid shite? I moved here from X to get away from that and see nothing but Transformers content.

Happy birthday! Hope you unboxed some incredible vintage transformers!

Visit TF-Desolation's Shop! I've opened a shop. Come take a look!

FYI There is only 1 copy left of #Transformers Desolation issue 1, and 6 copies of issue 2 left in my Kofi store. ko-fi.com/tfdesolation... I don’t think I will be printing any further copies of these back issues.

Since 1995 Graham has consistently produced THE best fan produced Transformers media. Both in terms of presentation/production values and content. Highly recommended reading.

Thank you - hope you like them. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Any chance of a back cover for issue 3 of Desolation? 😉

Trap - but just for the “Kiiiiiiiiingggg Poseiiiiidonnnnn!!!!!!” shout.

Is there any chance you may have availability for doing some comic flats either next month or October (not all the pages are drawn yet)? I can’t promise anything, but if the stars align I might need help with possible 10 pages. Please could you drop me a DM for how much as I’ll need to budget.

Wideload was also my first Throttlebot! I think mine came with a decoy of one of the Insecticons though. Which one was your favourite? I’d love a modern update on the Throttlebots to go with the updated Duocons.

..with some of the more time consuming aspects of getting the next (or possibly the 4th) issue completed, such as flatting. I’m not sure about this tbh and would like any views from other creators. If I ever go to #TFNation, I might consider doing a physical print run of it alongside Desolation.

..it ludicrously expensive to post out to people and the reduced numbers would kill any possible economy of scale on printing. Consequently, I was thinking of making it available digitally for a small fee which would then be reinvested into my current fanzine Desolation - so I can get some help…

The recent publication of Generation Mechs by @jroberts332.bsky.social has reminded me of the work I started on this reissue of some of the best bits of my 90s Transformers Fanzine. Originally I was going to do this as a printed zine but so far the page count is close to 80+ pages which would make…

I’m desperately waiting for the mail order to be available as I can’t wait to read it.

Finally finished inking another page. 3 more to do and then I can start colouring.

Promise I’m actually working on the fanzine. Here’s another page. If anyone still wants a copy of issue 1 or 2: ko-fi.com/tfdesolation

More preview art from issue 3. Another preview page from issue 3. #Transformers #TransformersVictory #Deszaras #Deathsaurus #Sixshot #Headmasters #soundblaster #Lyzak #Novastorm #Deathcobra

Just 3 pages left to ink and then I can start colouring! In terms of consistency I’m managing to put a fanzine out every two years! How the hell did I put one out every two months in the 90s, and still find time to contribute to my friends’ fanzines?

Three of the best from that era!

Take my money! I can’t wait for this - it will be really great to read the reflections of all the other 90s TF fanzine creators I grew up with to see how our alike or not our memories of those shared experiences are.

I wouldn’t ever think of making this a charity zine to attract contributors as I would be too worried about delays on my part or not raising enough money for the charity or letting people down in general. Besides, #TransformersVictory doesn’t really resonate with a broad section of the fanbase.

Professional artist or relies on income from their art to respond as you deserve the appropriate industry rates. But if there are any hobbyists who may be interested, please give me a shout.

While the fanzine is entirely non-profit (I lose a little money on it but I accept that as it’s my hobby), I understand that artists should receive recompense for their work/time. However the most I could offer would be copies of issues 1-4 of the fanzine so I don’t expect anyone who is a

If any artists with a vaguely similar style to mine are interested in collaborating on issue 4’s comic I would be incredibly grateful. I can do all of the colours & letters, and as long as all the story beats are covered you would be free to draw it in any way you like in any number of pages.

Having inked 4/8 pages for issue 3’s comic strip along with the cover to issue 4 (I got distracted), I’ve come to the realisation that I need help with this series as I’m averaging about 2 years between issues by trying to do 70% of the content myself.
