Santalux: Emiliano Santalucia's Blog: Transformers Concepts - Sideswipe

Pretty cool. Seems like the perfect blend of Sideswipe from G1 and the Movies.

 

Awesome design, I would love to get a toy using that design.

 

Pretty cool of him.

 

looks good

 

Toy.

Now.

 

that's the kind of thing i wanted from movie sideswipe... a good blend of classics and trying something new.

i need a toy of that.

 

Awesome.  

Me like it.

 

Not digging the chicken legs...

 

I agree!

But the overall design of Sideswipe is visually pleasing and I would love to see it on a toy or in Transformers Prime!

 

Nice.

 

Dat copy-pasted wheel on his right leg.

 

He also did Thundertron:

Checking his blog was how I found Sideswipe.

 

Neat design.

 

Turns into a Diablo lambo.

Has devil legs.

 

 

Hey, I like this! Great that it has the same philosophy as Ironhide, synthesize and blend classic look with stand-out movie elements.

Seeing his enthusiasm makes me like Thundertron a little more, lol. I also liked the Destructicons! It was Mudslinger who sucked. I always gave my Destructicons to Smolder, he was a better fit. (I've since sold them to a happy little boy at a yard sale.   )

 

Yep, this looks damn good. Though it would have been nice if they mixed G1 and movie a bit more, by doing more with the carhood on his chest. Maybe segment it and have it sit at an angle, the headlights nearer the shoulders...But still, damn cool and I would totally buy a toy.

 

DIG IT! I totally love the combination of the basic transformers design with the movie aesthetics. He'd fit right into tfp, that's for sure.

 

'S'O.K. Obviously the intent is to blend elements of the 'classic'/G1 look in with the Movie look (judging by his art for Jazz as well) a la Ongoing, though I have to say I kinda dig how much 'smoother' IMO this art is with the concept.
