This is mighty fine art work. I would like to see some more armor though. He only looks as tough as the Fallen at this point.

It may not be much of a disguise, but it still makes much more sense in the movie-verse than G1 Grimlock. I've imagined Grimlock being a skeleton myself. Hope this goes the way of Longhaul. Grimlock is too important to be missing from the movies. This can't be worse than Devastator's balls, Michael Bay has no real excuse after ROTF.

Friggin AWESOME!!!! Such a brilliant idea, making it a fossilized T-Rex skeleton, as apposed to a robot tyrannosaur. I want to see this on the s]big screen! :sad:

Wow. Nothing but love for this: The rendering, the back story, the thoughtfulness of design....oh slobber. Fantastic work, YC!!!

I'm actually kinda glad this is not in Bay's sights, honestly. He's publicly stated he hates the Dinos, and you know he'd cook up some 'enemy scrotum' humor just for them.

Which would fill me with Teh RAEG. :BOOM:

<--is my new favorite.

HK, do not fill me with Teh RAEG.

Reminds me of Beast Wars Dino-bot but with a far meaner, nastier, all-around more bad-ass look. Never thought I would see a Movie-verse dinobot concept that would actually be plausible in origin and look decent but this has both aspects nailed. I'm genuinely impressed and awed. It's very unfortunate that a toy could not be made that would do justice to this idea. Would have to be by a 3rd party co. because Hasbro would utterly ruin this otherwise astounding masterpiece.
Excellent work on this. My kids will be blown away when I show them these pics.

As cool as this concept is, I can see now why they don't want to worry about Dinobots in these movies.

AS crappy as the last movie was, this would completely make Transformers jump the shark

It is beyond cool =P~

I hope to see a toy in the near future :-B

awesome concept and a great job on the design. Some one needs to show this to hasbro, maybe they'll put it in the next movie and we'll get a decent looking transformer for once.

Why? It's fanart.

Unless you mean a fanmade toy.

Sun Feb 07, 2010 3:52 pm

Though it is pretty cool, it won't be anything because it is FAN ART!!! FAN ART idiots FAN ART!!! :BOOM:

This makes me so mad of all the "We want the toy" trash. I also always imagined movie Grimlock as a skelaton, but that is just me. :CON:

I turn fan art into real art.

That's the reason I posted this.... to get people's attention.

Yeah, well I wish someone would turn "Fan Art" to "Real Toy"

I am not even in 8th grade and I seem to be a party pooper :shock:

i guess thats why everyone calls me COBRA COMMANDER :CON:

Sun Feb 07, 2010 11:10 pm

Alright, I havent posted in awhile. But I just need to say...thats so incredible its beyond words.

Though Michael Bay would probably take that design, give it a ridiculous accent, and have it spend most of the movie offscreen...

Mon Feb 08, 2010 9:20 pm

Wow..this is..amazing.
The only thing is:I was under the impression the movie TF's would have hand pop out blades, that would've gone great with GrimLock.
He looks really organic though..which is awesome but gives him a look like the seven Primes.

It doesn't matter, this is awesome.

I'm simutaniously crapping my pants in terror and in awe of that design! Nice work!

Also, the "crown" is a great nod to G1 Marvel Grimlock!

Wed Feb 10, 2010 7:45 pm

its cool but the robot form should resemble more of his G1 form. i wonder if they are going to do the rest of the dinobots? this is really interesting.

Did anyone save these images of Grimlock? I was trying to show it to a friend, but they don't show up anymore and the link to the artists website are no longer functional.

Thanks,
Bradicus
