Guido Guidi has revealed the cover for a new Transformers book he has worked on at his Deviant Art page. You Can Draw Transformers features artwork from Guido and was written by Simon Furman. Check out the original post Here and Here.
Thanks to 2005 Boards Member Gryph for the news.

I suggest you make a version that has that explosion bubble thing that says:
INSIDE:
– How to market yourself as a Superstar
– Individual artist contracts that allow you to take credit for their work
– Cardboard cut-out Porsche and trophy girlfriend
I'm a Simon Furman sound effect?!?

Would love to pick this up, but I'm still stuck drawing stick men. I have no right brain to speak of.

The last time I tried to draw a Transformer, it was a toilet TF I created. I was in fourth grade. I think I named him Floater.
Thanks to Guido I'll give Floater another shot.
Gryph
I asked.

Jesting aside – seriously, why IS Simon Furman writing a "How to Draw" book? He's not an arist. Guido is drawing the book… it is a book ABOUT drawing the things which he has drawn… and yet… Furman is writing it? I know Guido's Italian, so… ngh, maybe Furman's just writing a fluid English translation of Guido's instructions.
I think I HAVE to believe that, or my head might explode. What cosmic force decided that every single fucking Transformers book about anything has to be written by Simon Furman?
Night Flame
Maybe the people publishing it believed that anyone who can draw like that can't actually speak or write and can only grunt, so they brought in Simon to be the interpreter and translate the grunts into written English?
Jarodimus
^ Hmm. So, what exactly was there for Furman to write?
Maybe, once drawn, the characters all say "Hh" or "Crz".

Here's a bit more info.
I asked Guido on his journal entry about what the book will be about exactly. He said "there're 2 "special" guidelines about Optimus and Megatron, but for the most part the book gives general tips about drawing Transformers in general, like drawing robotic hands, feet, faceplates, armours details etc." Sounds quite useful. I still have problems with TF hands. lol

Mine.

This book shall be mine….
Looks like a great book to have.

"Written by Simon Furman"
It's going to be nothing but a book of how to draw Grimlock… and Prime holding his head with an internal monologue"…it never ends."
Brave Magnus
I can draw Tfs but I suck at it. XD
I must get this book.
