    Well here's another TFA design! This time it's of Black Shadow! I prefer his inner robot rather than his pretender shell, plus I don't think pretender tech exists in TFA anyways. Destron23's Gallery

    Galactic Powers and Abilities:
    - Black Shadow's strength rivals that of Megatron
    - Is a master of camouflage
    - Posesses a dark matter energy chamber to power lasers

    Bio:
    Black Shadow is one of Megatron's specialty warriors. He often tems up with Blue Bacchus to perform dangerous missions for the Decepticons. He is a master at infiltrating and camouflage which is why he is assigned pertinent missions. Black Shadow is however a sadist. He's cruel towards his ennemies and experiences immense pleasure when he can feel their bodies being crushed between his fists. Black Shadow also has a bitter rivalry with Greatshot for at one time they were allies until Greatshot decided that the Decepticon cause was wrong. Many Decepticons hire Black Shadow and Blue Bacchus for their own agendas, but there's no other Decepticon than Hellbat that Black Shadow despise more for Hellbat neglected to pay up.

    OMG! :D  Thanks so much for the awesome reaction! Yes I'm fully aware that Black Shadow exists and he's a repaint/ retool of Thunderwing. :)  I was really inspired by this picture by Zero Mayhem on deviantart for how Black Shadow should look. I also hope Thunderwing in the Generations line is repainted and given a new head to make Black Shadow.

    Wow, that's pretty cool. Although for a master of stealth i would think that he would be a litte bit more sleak. Also, the back line (well the back defining line) looks odd to me, i think its the random-ish bulge.

    That is an improvement, and the bulge i meant was the one lower on the abdomen actually lol. Anyways, i just noticed that the (our) right leg's angles are a bit sharp for the flowing line architecture of the Animated design.
    also, (wow im talking a lot), i think personally the crotch should be pulled up a little, or the upper legs extended a bit. But i think thats more of a personal thing.

    I see what you mean, but I don't think I'll go back to fix it. I've been trying to dish out TFA things everyday in hopes to improve on drawing the style and working on perspective. I suppose though, the major thing I want to get across are the design elements.

    understood. But, if you did, the drawing would rise to exceptional.
