Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, (and whatever Burn is

) I present to you the mysterious and deadly Kumiho, as created by the talented DevArt member Zinou:

She actually sent me two images , but this one featured a profile of the head and face; the other one was exactly the same, except no profile.

actually i think the appropriate smiley for her would be banned and not allowed on here lmao.

Windy, thats very awsome, do you mind if i ask if you drew the entire heads and alt modes then pasted to make them overlap like that? just curious, if its a secret i understand.

*looks at Windy's pic* Can...can someone pick my jaw off the ground?

TS, Kumiho looks nice, her face's wolfen nature makes her more unique.

Can't find words for Windracers pic. It's past simply words as "WOW!" or "Amazing!"...

Snowfire and Blaze are the best probably. (Awaiting the version with only the robot modes in line and animal heads on the upper line)

That is really amazing, did you draw all of those too?

T-Scream, Kumiho looks AWESOME. I love the dainty fox paws on her feet for some reason...

Yep, every single one. XD

aahahahahahhaha not unless I had a death wish and/or a desire to give myself carpal tunnel syndrome. Seriously, even holding the tablet pen for a few hours is bad enough, imagine all the insane detailing that would go in to the robot modes...

Unless they were chibi. I could attempt a chibi pic of my entire team. Heheheheheheh...

It's no secret, really. I did everything at once. Well, technically, from Raindance to Feralbrawn was all done in one pic, and Stormflash, Silverblade, Frostbite, Snowfire, Wildstrike, and Blaze were added in. But there was really no copy and pasting, just one base layer of lines and a loooooot of color layers underneath, cel shade style. 50-60, if I guesstimated things right. @_@

Thunderscream wrote:So, how many of those are going to become more organic looking come their Maximal "downgrade" in V2?

Hm, probably all of the mechanical looking ones (Raindance, Aquila, Raider, Windy, and Aurora), except for maybe Silverblade. She's a Transmetal-ish design to begin with... Aurora'll probably be a white lioness (or I could turn her back into a Toucan. Hehe, that was her original BW form...), Raider a Giganotosaurus (if there's ever a Gigano added into the game. Until then he'll stay dragon), Windy... will still be a dragon, albeit an organic one, even though her BW form is technically a pterodactyl... Aquila already has a BW design. As for Raindance... I wanted to base her off one of MacFarlane's dragons, and possibly the same for Blaze, since this guy looks positively awesome.

Anyhow, WOW. Thanks for all the comments you guys. :shock:

I didn't think it was THAT good.....

Did you think we'd hate it? Come on, you should be proud of such great work of art.

I thought so; I do seem to prefer "unique" looking Transformers, don't I? I particularly like how Zinou, IMO, made her facial features look fairly vauge as to her gender; she could be female, or she could be a youthful male.

Windracer wrote:T-Scream, Kumiho looks AWESOME. I love the dainty fox paws on her feet for some reason...

I half expected Zinou to make her Zoid's hind legs her robot legs; just seems easier honestly. I gave Zinou permission to post this work on her DevArt page and I hope she does; she did awesome work on what I believe is one of the few crossover peices she's done.

Windracer wrote:Thanks for all the comments you guys. I didn't think it was THAT good...

You're too hard on yourself sometimes.

You do excellent work.

I'd love to commission a peice showcasing my entire team; unfortunately, only eight of my characters have been given form. Novacula's in the works as we speak (he'll be number 9), Darkwylde's been done I think but I'm thinking of getting a new peice done on him. That leaves Sea Wolf and Lohikaarme who haven't been given form yet, and I'm not going to have a team commission without the dragon.

I hope you don't mine Windracer but I'm using the profile shots from your picture as a reference to draw/design my own bots. If I ever get it right I'll post it up. Giving you props of course.

Does anyone happen to have scans of the DW G1 MTMTE profiles of Chromedome and Crosshairs (pages 052 and 077 of the Volume 1 TPB), by any chance? I'm hoping to finally complete the last two recolours I need to finish off my team before V2...but I don't have a scanner any more due to a series of misadventures involving gravity and heavy objects.
