We welcome artist Mark Watts to our guest list for Retro Con 2018! Mark is responsible for some of the iconic artwork used in the G1 Transformers toy line! He did at least 45 commissioned paintings for Hasbro between the mid 80’s and early 90’s, most of which were used directly for the packaging of the products. Notable packaging illustrations he created include Shockwave, Jetfire, the Constructicons, the Stunticons, and all of the series one Minibots! He also did several paintings used for pack-in mail-away offers for the Transformers line, such as Reflector, the “Time Warrior” Autobot watch, and the Omnibots. Mark will have a booth in our guest section at the show all weekend, where he’ll be selling his Transformers prints, table art, and more. Meet someone that played a big part in the history of the original Transformers toy line! Read more about Mark here: Meet G1 Transformers Artist Mark Watts at Retro Con 2018! Mark sells high quality prints of his Transformers artwork at his website: Transformer Prints – Mark Watts Art You can also purchase Mark’s slick transformable “table art” featuring his Transformers works here: Great New Idea! Table-Art, Framed Art that turns into 2 tables.
