Very cool!

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has an OC that uses Energon whips as a weapon of choice..^^

Heheheh... Thanks!! ^^

Siren Prime: Aw, slag it!! I thought I was unique...

Yeah, Energon whips rock!!

*chuckles* Quite welcome!

Nightflare: Not quite, hun. The two of us may be the only ones, though.

Oh, yes...they do...^^

Sweet Siren!

I like your design...though might I suggest dividing the torso, and perhaps shrinking the head a tad?

Thanks for the advice!!
Actually I was thinking the same thing. Luckly this isn't a final version.

Siren: Well, that's just because we've got style.

QUICKY NOTE: Changed Lacerate's name to Strato Grid. Sounds cooler, even if he is just a little nusiance.

Hey Siren, would you mind if I took a crack at drawing your character??

Also, Gender issues in Asexual Robotic Species aside (lets not open that can of worms here too!) - might I suggest a smaller or more streamlined vehicle, which I think might lend itself better as a reflection of a feminine character?

EXAMPLE:

Many other fine examples here:

HECK YEAH!!! I love it when other people try doing my characters.

I'd be totally honored!!

Anyway, no offense taken here. I'm not that touchy.
But I'll take that idea into consideration. I've just always LOVED those ambulances and I'm actually making some progress with the feminine look.

If worse come to worse I'll try one of those other ambulances.

And about that picture, HOLY FLIP!!! :shock:

That is freakin' amazing!!

Here's mine. He's what my 1989 Chevy Silverado would look like. I plan on actually taking a bunch of pictures of parts of the truck and photoshopping them to look like this.

Transformation steps(at top of page)
1. Arms unfold from under the body and push truck up off the ground and onto feet that fold out from the tailgate.

2. Bed splits apart forming the legs and torso, legs split to form upper and lower parts of legs.

3. Torso and legs rotate 180 degrees.

4. Hood flips down to form the chest. Head pops up.

Very nice!!
I like it.

Fri Nov 30, 2007 8:48 pm

Thanks, I was afraid he might be a little bulky looking, but hey so were the G1's. I was having a hard time coming up with a name for him.

Hey, no problem!!
About him being bulky... I've seen MUCH worse!! :wink:

How do you like mine? (Keep in mind, she's changed since I put her up.)

The name thing is hard, because so many have already been taken.

Fri Nov 30, 2007 9:56 pm

It looks great! nice clean style. I like your transformation process too

I was gonna name him Silverado, then Silveradobot, then BlackJack(since the truck he's based off is black.) If I go through with my plans of taking pics of my truck and photoshopping them to actually put up the finished Transformer, I'll also have the real Autobot decals on it. I've even seen a chrome vehicle badge of it on Ebay that I want to add to the tailgate.
