Artist's Comments

I got a call from my editors in the X-Men office at Marvel about a month ago to do some design work for some new Sentinels. for the last 30 or so years the Sentinels have had the same general design so Marvel wanted to spruce them up for the new Civil War story line going on this Summer. They didn't give me any other guidelines except to make them each look original and bad-ass. There are 5 all together named Warmachine, Crazytrain, Ogre, Shrapnel, and Megaton. Salvador Larroca designed Warmachine and Crazytrain so I was charged with doing the final 3. I tried to make them characteristic with their name and give them the ominous feel I think a Sentinel should have. Inspiration came from all over the place including Gundam, Transformers, Evangelion, Big O, Thundercats, and the 5th Element. I should also mention that these have all already been approved and are currently being drawn by Marvel artists for this Summer's comics. These aren't your father's Sentinels!

Also, thanks to everyone that comented on my Rogue piece and please head over to my latest journal entry to vote on the AOA color contest if you haven't already. Only one vote per person so if you have voted, that's for the support!

best regards!

Dude, freakin awesome. Now THESE are sentinals to fear! The older ones I admit I feared but they were slightly comical in the humorous sense, these guys look formidable!

I licked you while you were sleeping. It was a queer taste that only Humans can give. Perhaps, tonight, I will bring seasoning with me.
