Here is my interpretation of a more modern Soundwave (seriously, he can't turn into a microcassette recorder anymore). I imagined his altmode to be similar to his animated incarnation, or some sort of surveillance/comms vehicle.
"Tight" is a very good word to describe this. Additionally, the coloring really makes this piece very powerful. Excellent work
Nicely done, my one crit. would be that it appears as if his knees are knocking together, put apart from that it's a quality piece
Very nice design mod for Soundwave, powerful, imposing and "no stinking audio cassettes" for him! Great use of lights and shadows, perfect colors for him!
