IDW comic artist Livio Ramondelli has uploaded his cover for Transformers: More than Meets the Eye #51 to his DeviantArt, featuring none other than the leader of the Decepticon Justice Division himself, Tarn, in all his murderous glory. As Livio so aptly puts it, Tarn is seen here “enjoying a lovely day at the office”, with many impaled bodies in the background.
The second part of The Dying of the Light will be out in just two days on Wednesday, March 30th.

I can, and I do.

Agreed.

I really can't stand Ramondelli's artwork. I mean, I respect the amount of work he's done for IDW's Transformers property, but it's just so awful.

Wow he actually made something fantastic looking.
Newholl
Cut him some slack. At least the guy's trying to improve over time unlike certain other artists (SCIOLI)…
Newholl
Wow, his coloring improved a lot!

While usually a huge Livio cover fan, this one has left me a bit meh. Ah, well.

I try to like Ramondelli's art, because he clearly puts effort into all that digital work, but it's just too dark, too flat and it never looks as if he actually paid attention to how the character is supposed to look. Case in point, Tarns shoulders here look like three pairs of tires instead of the split tank treads that should be there.
But I'll take a dozen Livios as long as they never bring back Ulises Farinas.

Absolute worst regular artist they have. Bargain basement tier art.

Wow. Gorgeous. Wow. And I've given Livio shit in the past but damn when he delivers, he delivers.
Tarn does look a bit more generic and blocky (kinda like Rojo's art when everyone from Megs to Froid looked like a human instead of a big robot, especially the TFP Soundwave-ish Froid). But the colors, the lighting, etc. Wow.

That's raw as hell.
Nocturne
not a fsn of Livio's sequential art but he does a gooood cover.
Flexx Ark
Definitely this.

We've given Livio a lot of shit in the past, but you can't deny that this cover art is amazing.
Also, he's gotten a lot better at coloring recently. Or someone is coloring for him. Either way the result is great.
Haywired
Great cover.

Lovely. Ramondelli gives great robot porn. Superb.

Cool

Yeah, I think it looks good at first glance, but man is that face flat.
Spartan Prime
Looks good until you get a zoomed-in look at it. Then it shows how one-dimensional DeviantArt-like the coloring is. That face is just amateur-hour.
