Ya know this one given the texture of the brush strokes and the lighting really reminds me a lot of the packaging art for Masters of the Universe & The Micronauts toys done by fantasy artist Ken Kelly. So in that respect I like it but I just don't know what to make of the out of whack proportions of ROM's body. Maybe that was intended to be some sort of "artsy" aspect of this piece but I just really feel like this could have been a great rendering of ROM if the anatomy was more in proportion. I hope I'm not being a dick here, but after all this is merely the opinion of just one guy out there.
