At last, I got myself pictured in all my World War II glory... 8)

Done for me as a gift by my very good friend and fellow hungarian TF fan, Tyrant. :) He used the 80 cm railcar-mounted cannon 'Dora' - kinda Bertha's 'sister' for reference, see pic here:

As some already know, I took my nick after DW launched their first GI Joe Crossover, where Shockwave was re-imagined as a B(ig) B(ertha) by Don Figueroa. He did modify the Bertha, though, it was much smaller and had four smaller, extra cannons. Tyrant went back to the roots when designing a new model for Shocky, though the basis of his transformation remains the same.

I think I should mention that aside from translating Marvel UK to Hungarian, Tyrant and I are working on a Ravage (BW) Mosiac currently... 8)

Thanks! :)

I'm encouraging my friend to draw more Transformers - he works in a shop printing T-Shirts and is pretty busy usually.
