I hope you'll keep us abreast of your non-TF work, but I also hope we haven't seen the very last of Nick Roche in the TF universe. ;)Botch the Crabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490813784858968375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6217180144602810531.post-7333575070765356612012-02-17T21:41:22.111+00:002012-02-17T21:41:22.111+00:00Ah, Botch, you amazing collection of resources, yo...Ah, Botch, you amazing collection of resources, you. The obvious question that has yet been unasked. And now here you are...<br /><br />Why? I just felt it was time. I had thought I'd have had a chance to write more TFs as well as dabbling in other properties as an artist in the time since turning pro. It seemed to me - and intimated as such by others - that being seen as a TF artist was hindering a lot of my opportunities to expand in other ways, so I deliberately took a step back, rather than grow to resent what everyone will agree is a kick-arse gig. <br /><br />That's the thing with foreseeable futures...they come and go. I know what the end of the year holds for me, for example, and it features large shape-changing robots. It was never an 'I quit'. Merely 'I'm stepping out for some air'. In the meantime, I'm getting to do some concept art for a large toy company and am having a range of collectible Doctor Who vinyl figures released based on my style/designs. I should also be able to get a few months to start building up some of my own ideas and see if any of them are as ball-blazing as my cheese-infused dreams make them seem. <br /><br />But good question, Botch! Keep up the great work!Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11502013341236428625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6217180144602810531.post-59489203803686740222012-02-13T18:58:15.251+00:002012-02-13T18:58:15.251+00:00I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere else, so ...I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere else, so I thought I'd ask: why no more Transformers for the foreseeable future?Botch the Crabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490813784858968375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6217180144602810531.post-46970686807783396642012-02-03T14:50:15.202+00:002012-02-03T14:50:15.202+00:00David!

Might be making some pages from Death of Optimus Prime available later in the year though, so keep 'em peeled. I'll be using this husk of a blog to make it known if I am. Ta!<br /><br />Camille M! (I think I know you you are...90s Fanzines and penpallery, I'm guessing...?!)No time to trad the boards these days, I'm afraid. Had to give it up when I turned pro at the ol' scrawling, and moved out of the small pond I was an acting fish in. Nowhere else would indulge me, I fear! Love to get back to it some day though. I enjoy being a ham almost as much as I enjoy eating the stuff. Good to hear from you though! Hope you're well.<br /><br />More soon?
