Silica alt mode in progress.
Tumblr media
I still want to make the alt mode vaguely comprehensible since if I ever want to 3d model them, I won’t want to do a physics experiment finding out how much kinetic energy I can survive

Sometimes I wish there were more transformers designs that were more animalistic/alien. I mean, how did Alien Robots millions of light years away evolved into bipedal walking machines with scoliosis….
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ofc, they’re designed to be marketable, so they NEED to look like da hoomans. Though, I don’t think the human body is the pinnacle evolutionary standard, universal to all intelligent species. Yeah I know transformers is not known its scientific accuracy and I know that most other sci-fi franchises also have the same symptoms…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
it’s weird though, I’ve been lurking on Art fight and on tumblr for a while, looking at the tf oc tags and rarely do I come across ocs with weird alien designs that don’t have a human/bipedal-like protoform. With or without it, doesn’t make or break a design, I just want to see more of it.
Though I do need to acknowledge that my first 3 tf shows, Beast Wars, Rescue Bots and especially RID 2015 (yes I did watch it before I watched tfp) gave me a bunch of implicit bias towards designing tf characters with non-human like forms.
Tumblr media
I don’t know if anyone else shares this sentiment…
I’m probably just a dumb outlier that got into transformers for the completely different reasons. Dunno how others got introduced to the transformers franchise.
Personally, 4 yrs ago, I had nothing better to do and haven’t discovered pirating. Turns out, most old tf shows were uploaded on YouTube for free. Guess who binged all of it?
Anyways, HOW DID I WRITE THIS MUCH… this was supposed to be about Otolith’s redesign.
Tumblr media
Umm, I hope you liked the little design progression thingy. Kinda added it after my rant…
Designing Otolith was not an easy task, but I’m fine with this type of torture. (not really good at drawing ppl in general,) but hey maybe you can try your hand at a non-humanoid tf design if u want
Umm if anyone happens to see this post pls tell me how you got into transformers!

I MADE THE SEARCHLIGHT WIN SCREEN :DDDDDD
Tumblr media
I don’t know what I was smoking at the time but I drew this in less than 2 hours
Tumblr media
And now that I’m done with dumb ap physics and college board I CAN FINALLY PLAY PRESSURE AGAIN.
you do not know how much I miss that stupid game. Holy smokes I almost beat the it during a fire evacuation using my phone data
IL OVE PRESSURE (my classmates are concerned) I HAEV OVER 40 WINS
also go watch the horse race.
by chance you have not played pressure… PLAY PRESSURE

damn I love the idea of integrating cool real life science phenomena into transformers stories, this also reminds me of the Widmanstätten pattern found on meteors.
Tumblr media
The patterns can only form after metal cools from a molten state in the vacuum of space, over millions of years.
I don’t know what circumstances led to a cybertronian to have this pattern on their frame, but it’s really cool and brings up a lot of questions.
This is an idea that had been mulling in my head, imagining that Cybertronian scars, being welded, are inherently a very beautiful thing.
Because difference in heat intensity and welding patterns create something entirely and beautifully unique with each scar, none are ever so alike between different bots or cons.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
LIKE!!! LOOK AT ALL OF THESE????
Tumblr media Tumblr media
they all are so unique them, and maybe they even weld the scar in a way to expand it into some beautiful pattern, spiral, so that it's pain is remembered but redefined entirely.
edit: is anyone actually uses this idea can y'all please tag me 🥺👉👈

Space time unicorn. My Vector Prime design for tf gold. That big unicorn horn of his is actually a removable sword. He can use it to slice through the fabric of reality and hop dimensions.
his true form is based off of the leafy sea dragon… but with unicorn horn
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and his design is inspired by that one scene in mlp (forgor which episode) vvv
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So like, imagine that but vector prime leaving for coffee or something.
also he really suffers from “I like the sketch better”
Tumblr media
I think it’s because I miss the vague moustache I gave him early on. It’s gone now :(

Huhhhh….
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ngl I freaked out when I saw this and this made me avoid tumblr for a while.
Now that this post died down no one cares about me anymore I’m going to go back to ranting about my ocs to the same 3 people.
ermmm… also 30 followers yay!
I'll be posting more pressure art since it’s a natural byproduct of being in that community, and I am still a pressure addict.
Tumblr media
yeahhh. Also it’s ap exam season so I might not post as much. Though don’t think anyone really cares.
I AM RAMBLING TO THE VOID
anyway have a nice day… or night if you’re seeing this

Silica was often mistaken for being Eukarian or even some weird Cybertronian fauna. Tired of failing and being denied minimum wage jobs and everyone running at the sight of them, they caved and added stuff to their frame to look somewhat like the average cybertronian.
And yay! They eventually got a custodian job at Maccadam’s!

… I spent way too much time on this dumb science joke.
But I am a stinky stem student… and I am intelligent and an idiot in many ways.
Tumblr media
Inspired by this:
Tumblr media
My physics teacher showed this to the class to basically shit on all the other fields of sciences. Yeah he also teaches calculus too.
W teacher btw. Shot potatoes into people’s houses (by accident) to teach projectile motion.

Cyberformed New York
How it went down, and the basics on how cyberforming works.
Tumblr media
It happened out of no were, a loud boom and them a second later piercing burning white light, no warning no time to prepare, shit is now officially fuck and now everyones gotta adapt, if they want any chance surving let alone at stopping this from getting any worse. Because even if the first big change is over, whatever caused this is not gone and is still slowly shifting and warping things.
Read more about what's going on with the city here
I'm not going to say how yet because I still plan on writing that fic, so I won't spoil the mystery yet, but you all are free to speculate. :]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
To be successfully cyberformed and not become a metal statue or some kind of mechanical beast requires two things: a mechanical or electronic something that can serve as a frame, and so, so much luck. The human body is used to create the spark, and the process of transforming flesh into a spark often goes awry, sometimes for an identifiable reason, and sometimes for what seems like no reason at all. That's why you need that luck.
Full Cybertronian
Aka a successful spark conversion, the lucky few who get to at least keep their minds after cyberforming, where the body, essence, and life force are successfully converted into a spark.
What makes a successful or failed spark conversion is unknown to most; it seems completely random, but no human who has spent a significant amount of time exposed to Cybertronian has had a failed spark conversion. The reason for this is still unknown to the characters. However, for those who had a successful spark conversion and didn't interact with cybertonians before, there doesn't seem to be any clear connections as to why they didn't lose themselves.
Cyber beast
Failed spark conversion, most who get cyberformed end up like this, a lot of things can go wrong when converting fleshy meat into a semi eternal burning life force so over 98% of spark conversion fail
Any potential frame material being touched by more than one person will always end in a failed spark conversion, as trying to make a stable spark out of 2 or more separate beings almost always fails
Statue
Becoming a statue is the fate to befall anyone not in contact with something that could become a frame. No frame materials mean, well, instead of your body becoming a spark, it just becomes metal.
No amount of cybertronian friendship points can save you from this fate,
--------------------------------------------
ya, this AU is old. The art with Raoul Tracks and Sparkplug is new, but the stuff with that random guy is from 2023 but was never posted wtf lol
Anyways, fun fact about the Raoul and tracks drawing, I started drawing the Raoul was fixing, looked up the ref of the engine, realized it had a mid-rear engine, not a front engine, so had to flip the car and redraw it lol
