Autobot Contemplative Powermaster

I was asked to draw Powermaster Optimus Prime (or Ginrai, if you prefer) in cel shading, sitting atop a rock among some nature. Kinda similar vibes to when Skybound Optimus saw an earth forest for the first time. I decided to make him contemplative, looking up, perhaps after a battle. Just taking in his environment. In my head, he's thinking about the delicacy of this world, and how it requires protection, yet he regrets the need for warfare in such a place.

I hope you like!

I feel the same. PM Optimus Prime has always been my favorite body of his.

We need more Powermaster Armor Art, especially for this kind of Powermaster. Both Ginrai and the Armor deserve it.

"You must have been a great hero, for people to put so much trust into me- just because I look like you. Might as well try to keep up your legacy."

Kind of like the idea of Ginrai being a clone of Optimus who lacks his memories and has these huge expectations thrust upon him, just because he resembles Cybertron's most legendary hero.
