    EDIT (7/19/12): Starscream added a few posts down.

    So I'm designing again. I recently discovered that plugins for Sketchup are really cool. I can make curves and other non-boxy things now! Thanks, Fredo! Also, whoever made the "soap skin and bubble" plugin. Now I can finally make Transformers that look semi-decent.

    So first up is Optimus. I like how he turned out! I kept most of the classic Optimus elements that are part of nearly every Op design, but I think I added enough of my own style to make him look different.

    His head is loosely inspired by BW Optimus.

    He's not completely finished yet. I haven't done his neck. Also, I did not make the tires that are by his shoulders and on the back of his legs. I downloaded them off of the Sketchup warehouse, so they were created by someone else. They're just placeholders; I'm going to model my own later.

    Next up is Starscream. He's already pretty much done, so I'll post him soon. After that I'll start on my next model, who'll probably be Spinister or Ravage.

    I agree, he needs a little more bulk.
    Seems great though.

    Thanks for the feedback. :D  Well, if you think Op is too skinny, just wait till you see Starscream! :lol  Anyways, what parts of him do you think need to be bulked up? Chest? Upper arms?

    I made his waist thicker in this image. What do you guys think?

    [​IMG]

    And the skinny version from the same angle, to compare:

    I think his entire torso needs a little more.
    Try to put some red kibble behind his windsheilds on his chest. That could help the upper torso.

    Here's Op with added kibble to bulk up his chest. I think it looks better:

    I think I like the new chest with the skinny waist, but I'd like to here what you think:

    Thanks!

    Okay, here's Starscream. I started him before Op, so he's not as good. Not 100% finished, though.

    Design based on TF: Prime Starscream. Color kind of based on Movie Starscream's protoform and his 2007 Voyager toy.

    That's a pretty interesting take on Scream.
    Who's next?

    Glad you think so. I'm trying to put a unique spin on all the characters I do.

    I'm going to work on Black Arachnia next. I'll start on her today; I'm hoping to have 70-80% of her done in a week or so.

    However, I'll be updating this thread with a few little bonus characters and "remolds" of Optimus and Starscream while I work on BA.

    Bonus Character #1 - Scalpel

    Scalpel looks cool. I think you can adapt the different pictures to him.
    Like, he has split personalities, one is mad, one is serious. Like 2-Face.

    Agreed. I think he's the more original design of the ones we've seen thus far. :thumb

    Glad you like him. I did copy a lot from past designs for Starscream and Optimus; I'll try to make my future models more original.

    I like that. :D  I might use your idea for the comic I'm planning to make with these models.


    Still working on Black Arachnia. Progress is going pretty good.

    Today's model is kind of boring. It's a Generic Seeker; a repaint of Starscream. They'll be the troops that Starscream commands. Most seekers start life with this body type; they differentiate themselves over time through modifications.

    Bonus Character #2 - Generic Seeker

    Well, Blackarachnia's pretty much done; just needs a few adjustments. I'm pretty happy with how she turned out. Her design is, I think, pretty original - I didn't copy too much from previous BA designs.

    Story-wise, she's a Decepticon scientist. This version of her isn't a seductress like past Blackarachnias, but she's still incredibly cunning, manipulative, and opportunistic.

    I'd love to hear what you guys think. :D

    No comments for Blackarachnia? :( 

    Just wanted to pop by to say that I'm still working on these. I have the next model almost done; just have to do his arms and head. Should have him posted in a few days.
