I'm sure many of you have read about how Ratchet was originally going to be a fembot named Red Alert. Since Bumblebee was going to be Hot Shot, it's most likely this character would have been either a brand new design or somewhat based on the Unicron Trilogy Red Alert. Well, since it obviously changed to G1 thanks to the movie, I wanted to draw one of my favorite Autobots as the fembot nurse he was always meant to be. I really wanted to do the animated style shading and probably draw her with some sort of cybertronian version of a syringe in her hand, but it takes me eons to draw the simplest thing properly. Also I heard that that one blog that released the sketch of Animated Beachcomber is also going to have a Red Alert...so I kinda wanted to get this out beforehand. I really like how she came out though. Enjoy! (I hope)
For Animated? I think all the spoilers definitely said Red Alert would be female, but who knows how accurate those are yet. Hot Shot is supposed to be Armada though.
Red Alert is amongst my favorite characters of all time and I gotta say... NICE </coop> I hope the thing we really get is at least as nice as this. And I hope she'll get a toy too. Of which I'll get over 9000 of them. Nah. But, definitely, a couple.
