Well, it's been a while.
So, I havn't drawn anything worthwhile in ages. Ages of ages in fact. To get me in the mood I thought I'd have a look at my old doodles from the past three or four years, and in doing so, I realised something.
I have a lot of drawings from the past 3 or 4 years.
A lot.
So, in going through them, making some room in my cupboard and deciding what's pap and what's alrightish, I thought I might as well scan them all and show them for prosperity, and cheap laughs at my expense! Yay! Some you might have seen before, many you might have not. It'll be an education into my twisted mind...
Today, I hit the Transformers section of the pile. Unfortunatly it's mostly okay in the transformers pile, so not so many laughs. You might enjoy them anyway though!
You guys might notice this as the bloke I've been touting as my avvie for a while, and it is the only computer coloured pic of this bunch XD This is Crimson. Or rather Crimson as a Transformer. Or rather one of the Crimsons as a transformer. I perfer the Crimson Washing Machine, but unfortunatly that's on my drunken doodle pad, which is elsewhere. Not entirely decided on the name but currently using Skywolfe, he becomes a modified Bell 222 chopper. He has twin whipswords/hairstyles and jets in his feet, making him a danger to himself and anybody nearby =D
And this is him in Animated style. This picture is also a lot more detail, since I used a reference picture this time =P
Another of my fancharacters, this is Darkstar. My notes on Darkstar say;
Name: Darkstar
Allegiance: Autobots
Function: Supporting fire
Alt. mode: Missle launching truck
Weapons: 8xmissle launchers.
Special Abilities: Internal warhead and missle construction systems for near constant fire rate, can spin body at high rpm.
Height: 35 ft - 10.7 m
Quote: 'Slag it. I'm off to the pub.'
For Darkstar, war is not something he approves of, although he may be good at it. He is a brash, foul-mouthed robot, concerned mostly with having a good time during day to day life, but, despite his sometimes abrasive attidute, he is quite a nice guy. As likely to share a batch of High Grade energon with an enemy as well as an ally, providing they show respect for the atmosphere of wherever they may be, and give everyone the respect they deserve. When off duty, Darkstar tries to be a mate to everybody, sometimes against their own wishes.
On the battlefield however, he is a determined and capable warrior up close, and a frightening (although usually less then harmful) prospect at a distance. If he accepts a task, he will not stop till it is complete, no matter the personal risk, although he will try to avoid risk to others.
Although he enjoys a good brawl, and the excitement of combat, Darkstar destests killing, and during his role as cover fire, he usually makes a lot of sound and noise, perfering to lay down a huge, concusive barrage to keep oppenents at bay rather than accuratly firing at them.
He enjoys the earth, particularly some of the earthen culture, but perfers cybertron, and a good evergon bar.
Darkstar is designed to make things go bang. Previously, he was involved in excavation work, and often firework displays, much to his enjoyment. Now his abilities are put to use as heavy support in the battlefield as his arm mounted launchers can fire up to 8 explosive rockets at a time, or due to nano-scale construction systems in his arms, in succestion at a rate of 40 rockets a minute (1 every 1.5 seconds). These can also be fired in Vehicle mode.
His launcers can be equipped with other types of rocket, with varying warheads, but Darkstar dosn't know how to make them or install them, so it is a trick that needs to be set up ahead of time.
In robot mode his upper torso can be rotated through 360 degrees, at an extremly high RPM, making him, in his words, "An expensive drinks mixer"
In vehicle mode, he can reach a top speed of around 58 mph, and has a range of around 500 miles
Darkstar is a glutton for high grade energon, enjoying flooding his laser core with an overabundance of energy, allowing it to overheat and hinder his conciousness. In otherwords, he is a drunkard. As such there have been times where he as been ineffectual in his duties due to being overcharged, or worse, burning out some circuits. This probably hasn't appealed him to the medics much either.
His bulky frame makes for slow movement, and he is easy to hit, but his high armour and seemingly pre-programmed bull-headedness tend to make this less a weakness, unless he comes up against some serious firepower.
When rotating, his gears can easily wear out and come to an awkward halt, even worse, if he is carrying to much wieght, then the forces can tear him apart, inflicting serious damage.
His most exploitable weakness however, is probably his compassion for life. As much as he will beat an enemy into submission, he almost point blank refuses to kill anyone, no matter the cause, leaving many of his attacks ineffectual in the long run.
So...basically a drunken brawling missle truck who dosn't want anybody hurt too badly then? *shrugs*
And yes, I know he has Origins hair. I like it =P
Another of my characters, Pinion, in his origional design. Oh Lawdy that face D=
A mugshot of Pinion's buddy, Rack. Plus bonus vampire, yay! No, the goggles don't do anything.
Rack and Pinion, together as they should be =D This is a much better design for Pinion here.
A little about the pair. Rack is a car transporter trailer, and Pinion is his cab, so they go together like... two things that go together very well. However Rack does all the talking, which is does often and loudly. Pinion on the other hand is mute (Though has perfect recall and magnetic powers.) They are also obsessed with earth magicians and it is their dream to become such.
Giant robot magicians.
Yeah.
Just a sketch of Jazz, nothing to see here.
This is a TF designed around a friend of mine, with a Bugatti Veyron alt mode. Only thing of note is the classy DBZ scouter.
Frequency is an odd one. Possibly the only Transformer I've designed from the ground up knowing it would be physically impossible to transform. Usually I put at least a little thought into it, then give way for asthetics/whims. Freq however is supposed to be from a universe with better tech, and runs on antigravity spheres. I might go into detail on that universe sometime, I might not. He turns into a TRoN style lightbike (but with balls ;P) and his attack robot mode sucks }=(
It's an unfinished doodle of Hardhead, wheee! Hardhead is awesome =3
Magnostreak, my fembot. Originally, all I had was a name, and I was thinking Maglev Train. Then I said, "Screw that! Zonda!" Thus this little lady. Still no idea on personality or anything, but I'm considering changing her into a triplechanger.
"Rictus is an Autobot of some age, even by Transformer standards. And he considers himself blessed to still be functioning, yet he angrily declares a curse against his existance every day. Why? Because Rictus was unfortunate enough to be brought online with a defect in his spark. A disastorous one.
Rictus is cursed with a "Genetic" disorder, one in which his self repair mechanisims are beyond control. Any damage he sustains, through battle, accident, even the day to day wear and tear of his own metal grinding on metal, is an abnormal danger to Rictus. His own systems work against him, slowly turning the softer parts of his technatomy, his joints and organs, into the solid cybertronion metal of his "bones" and armour, eventually leading him to a life of pain, and disability, then death.
Fortunatly for him, it seems that landing on earth, the total reconfigurment needed for a new mode, in a new environment, has restored him to the state he once was. But it is only a matter of time before his curse kicks in once more.
On Cybertron, Rictus was an arcitect, a great builder, a creator of towers and art, homes and defense. Then the war came to a head, what could he do? What was a builder in the face of destroyers like Megatron. Especially a cripple. So he fled, he with several other Autobots who could not, or would not fight. They fled to set up a colony someplace else.
Many did not survive."
...Yeah. He's an old disabled fart.
Transforummer Prime! With the ability to become a DS, a Bicycle and a Rubber Ducky! Now with original overworked duckbill!
Spider Jeruselem? Why is he in this pile? Because your mom! That's why.
Sunstreaker, updated to a Lamborghini Murchialago Roadster. Or however you spell that @_. This is probably the best drawing here.
Scalpel, who is only a doctor in the sense he might fix you if it's an order or you pay him. Generally Doctors don't kidnap people at night and kill them slowly to see what makes them tick. Not since the victorian era anyway.
An odd, old project of mine, designing Sonic TFs =D I really should come back to this someday, because just waiting in the wings are a Sonic Firarri, A Knux 'Cuda, A Tails Plane, A Mecha Veyron and a Super Ascari.
Oh? You know how I said there wouldn't be that many laughs this round? I lied. Brace yourself for the depths of TFs as humans D=
XD oh gawd that Ironhide XDXD It aint over yet folks!
Yep, for somereason this idea stuck in my head a while XDXD
And I apparently really liked my Brawn design. Of course this was back when I could draw faces well ^^;
And to finish off, something a little more recent. And by recent, I mean done in the pub tonight. A more G1 styled face for Scalpel (going for an Alpha Trion made love to Doc Doom look apparently) and a design known only as Victim 1.
And now for something completely different. Dinaninaninanina BATPRIME!
