Thanks for your praise and enthusiasm. And thanks for your OC, but outside of a few carefully crafted ones that I've made; I will not be including any, sorry.

I've been doing revamps to a lot of the series on paper to make it even better. One thing is size classes have been simplified immensely, they are now:

Class 4: The largest, about 6% of all characters.
Class 3: Larger than average size; 33% of characters are this size.
Class 2: The most common and "normal" size class; 57% of characters are this size.
Class 1: The smallest and rarest size; 4% of all characters.

The Vanguard Cast to date that has been modeled is split:

Class 4: Megazarak, Galvatron
Class 3: Ultra Magnus, Toxitron, Roadbuster, Hot Shot, Impactor, Shockwave
Class 2: Slugslinger
Class 1: None

And here they are in their new edited sizes!

I watched it and liked it and also: kid appealed character confirmed for vanguard... and you I think mentioned hot shot is a character. :APPLAUSE:

Vanguard has a new concept artist, known as Halfshell. Going forward for new molds (and characters that won't be made for awhile), he'll be doing concept art for them, and I'll be sharing them here. And he's already completed the next character, Wheeljack's concept design!

Now, I will say: this is Concept Art; not final character design. When I model him, I'll be making changes and such to this. What this is meant to show is the overall look and feel of the character's design.

It's very cool work, and I'm happy to have Halfshell on the team!

That looks awesome now only if someone could make a toyline for this.... that would be epic

Gonna have new renders coming out for the next long while; probably not one every day; but likely close to it. Don't know how long for, but likely for awhile!

The first of the new "Hero" Series of images for Vanguard:

Will Transformers Vanguard episodes be released next year? It feels like it is.

by **Galvanitro** » Tue Aug 12, 2014 7:49 am

The first prequel episode is still aimed for this year. No reason to delay yet, especially since production on it has already begun.

The Main Series will be next year at earliest; but will likely be 2016. All depends on how quickly the team grows and how long episodes take to make.

Nice, more good work. How big is your team thats working on this may I ask?

by **Galvanitro** » Wed Aug 13, 2014 1:12 pm

For all modeling and animation thus far; 100% me and me alone.

The rest of the team is two wonderful composers and four really great writing staff members.(Though one is leaving; and one might be soon; unrelated to project content; so it's two right now, I guess), as well as a sound designer, and a concept artist.

Then you really have done a great job! If I was a modeller I would offer my help but I only work with 2D and really don't have the time at this point (new addition to the family on the way

) but I wish you all the best with this

News Credits: 1 · by **Gallifreyan Autobot** » Wed Aug 13, 2014 1:43 pm

Oh boy looking at this if it becomes popular which I will watch as I will like the videos on YouTube I would love a toyline (that I would waist money on) for it

If you want a writer, I would be more than happy to write some episodes. I still want to contribute and give you my full support. I hope my project for us will be mentioned again and executed in the future.

Got 5 Renders Today!

News Credits: 1350 · by **ZeroWolf** » Sun Aug 17, 2014 11:35 am

Looking good

News Credits: 12 · by **Evil Eye** » Sun Aug 24, 2014 11:48 am

The models are absolutely amazing. Looking forward to this.

As for the voice acting, the voices themselves aren't too bad, but the performance was a bit wibbly. Obviously it's just a test shot, but it could do with a bit of work.

by **Galvanitro** » Fri Sep 05, 2014 12:08 pm

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback.

As far as the voice actors go: Both voice tests used lines taken from their auditions; so take that as you will on how "wibbly-wobbly" the voices are,

Got a bunch of new stuff today:

First, new video:
Vanguard Ultra Magnus - Robot Mode Turnaround

And some new renders:

New Megazarak Turnaround!

Also, to give full disclosure, and let you guys know some of the things I've been working on:

If I were to take this universe that Transformers: Vanguard inhabits to its fullest and completion, this is the roadmap to that (also includes some updates that I've been meaning to mention):

My goal is to make TOTGW & the first Episode of Season 1. But I wanted you guys to know just how much work I've put into the universe and story. If I get enough help on this project, it's possible to go the whole way. And there's a lot of Transformers awesome if we go the whole way,

Look forward to more updates soon, guys, I've got a ton of stuff in production.
