New pfp dropped! Finally had time and energy to design my TF sona - Taciturn ^^

{click for better quality!}

They don't have a full ref sheet yet but they're a seeker so their frame isn't too different from Starscream and the others.

I NEED to talk about the Bayverse.

I know a lot of us trash the Bayverse for several reasons. We think they're ugly, we think they're boring, we hate the Romeo and Juliet law thing, we hate the Optimus, we hate hate hate.

But there is a SERIOUS problem on the level of design. Some of them do look beautiful- I'm no stranger to wanting to do unholy things to TLK Optimus- and some of them look terrifying, like the Driller.

But there's a fundamental lack of thought in the designs of the Bayverse that isn't there in other Transformers media.

It comes down to this: Bayverse designs have a couple major flaws. Some of them are just plain ugly- no offense to my Bumblebee stans but look at him. Look at the three ladies we get to actually see the root modes of. Look at Crosshairs and fucking Wheeljack. They have all these elements of extreme robogore and they don't properly pull it together to form a character that stands out into visual archetypes. There's no "cute" characters, no "beautiful" characters, no "sporty" characters, no "intimidating" characters, no "ugly" characters- and I don't mean that as just character archetypes, I mean that as a category of physical design. Every other media has it. You can always find someone cute and someone pretty and someone ugly in every other media, especially Transformers, but you can't do it in the Bayverse because none of their characters are designed with a recognizeably 'cute' face.

And that on its own wouldn't so much be a problem if it weren't for how close to human they want to animate these guys, but they CLEARLY want them to look like big metal humans. Look at any of the nonbeastmodes who don't have a mask on 24/7 or an empurata. Look at Drift, look at Crosshairs, Wheeljack, TLK Optimus, Hound, even Ratchet if you squint- they're meant to look like big metal humans and it doesn't fucking work.

And then my biggest fucking gripe: Where. Is. Your. Fucking. Skin? I don't mean that on a human sense either. If I hold up a cross-section of a bot from every single media and asked you to point out anatomical features, you could.

"Where is the brain?" What's the thing you think with? Processor/brain module.

"Where is the heart?" What's the thing that keeps you moving? Spark.

"Where are the eyes?" What do you use to take in visual information? Optics.

"Where are the lungs?" What do you use to circulate air? Vents.

"Where are the legs?" What do you use to get around? Tires and servos.

"Where is the stomach?" What do you use to take in nutrients/fuel? Fuel tank.

"Where is the skin?" What do you use to prevent your sensitive insides from falling out? To keep debris and infections from getting in and killing you? Protoform, for everything other than the Bayverse bots. The Bayverse bots don't have skin. They don't, but they NEED it. Especially on a planet like Earth. All of the dust, a car backfiring and shooting out their rusted exhaust pipe (I've witnessed that fucking happen), the rain, small birds, rodents, all of those things can just get inside the bot because there's not even a glass or transparent silicone sheathe. It's not even a fucking weak spot for them like eyes and noses and mouths and ears and anuses and urethras and cuts- they don't have any skin to begin with. None of them do and it's fucking stupid and unrealistic!

It doesn't even need to be something smooth that hides the robotics. Clear silicon. Something somewhat organic because they reproduce through eggs.

Hello! Hope you’re having a nice morning, Afternoon, or night. Recently came across your art of Brains and i just wanna say he’s a cutie patootie in ur style. Personally he’s been my favorite since Transformers: Rise of the moon because he’s like an autistic idol for me, so you can imagine the excitement i expressed when seeing content of him. Anyways, i was wondering if you can feed my dying crops with a doodle of brains whenever you have time. Thank youuu!

AUTISTIC BRAINS TRUTHER IN THE WILD⁉️

I feel happy when I remember my oc narly tfp everything about her is real

Her clothes her hair style and color and eyes, color and skin color...and her skin type but her nose hard to draw.....her jacket in my closet now as for the long black pants I am wearing it now

Her shoes are inspired by a cool roller shoe I saw from my childhood

But the design will change and the color too

She can also press the back button hard to pop out the wheels! Cool right??

And my final exams start tomorrow
