Another Movie Wheeljack

Originally when I saw the contest I spent a few hours looking for a neat alt mode vehicle to consider and a bot to pay homage to. I was almost going to go with a few other designs (hound, clifjumper, or skywarp).

Eventually I found this neat little Audi "O" concept car and the back end and unique style of it just looked like it would make for a cool stylized chestplate.

The question was who would this white car be?
and after some searching and brainstorming I cam across the pic from the first TF episode of Wheeljack in his cybertron mode and knew it should be him.

After about the third day of working on this i saw the excelent work of member DOWNSHIFT-1307 here: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/design...wheeljack.html
I considered changing him to another character, but couldn't find another appropriate bot to fit the style, so I just went with it.

So, here is my entry for the contest.

whoa, that is really cool!

COOL!

JAWsome! i really like that,it fits wheeljack!

I think this is one of my favourite designs yet to be honest. It's a very clever tie-in to the G1's pre-Earth form, and the design is quite different while still feeling like Wheeljack. That is how you know that you did a great redesign, well done! If I can suggest one thing though then it's too change the arms; their positions look a bit goofy now and makes them look short as well.

well done!

Awesome! Wheeljack = WIN.

A from me!

Good, realistic looking style.
