Andrew Scribner
Andrew Scribner (born February 2, 1977)[1] is a freelance artist based in Pawtucket, RI. A Transformers fan since '84 (his first was Windcharger, bought with his own money), when he began to work at Hasbro as a temp model painter in August 2006, the team was reportedly thrilled to have someone so willing to paint for Transformers. And he certainly had a lot of painting to do, tasked as he was with the massive amounts of incoming live-action movie product.[2][3]
Scribner continued with Hasbro as a temp sculptor in 2009 and a temp model maker in 2011, and contributed decos as a freelancer in between and after those in-house gigs. He went on to turn his professional skills and experience in making action figures towards more personal homoerotic art.[4]
