    Wow, it's been a while since I last posted anything on TFW.

    Anyways, I was browsing the TFW forums today and came across a post by Insecticons. In that post was his Signature banner. Normally, someone would just view it as a compilation of different robots (Frenzy, Dewbot, Wheelie, Toasterbot), but I saw something different. I saw this dude's face. So I drew the head. Ended up drawing a body for him too, which inevitably became a Movie Protoform sorta looking. It was a quick sketch, as I didn't clean it up at all. Took around 20 minutes to do everything. I personally don't think I did enough justice to what I saw, so check out the sig and hopefully you'll see what I saw.

    Here's the link to the signature which prompted this character. See if you can spot where I saw it (Hint: He shares Frenzy's eyes)

    And thanks to Insecticons, who if not for his signature would not have inspired this character!

    UPDATE: Added quick unclean sketch of what I think the alt-mode would look like.

    I dunno. Haven't thought of an altmode. I was really just sketching to be quite honest. Might draw one up later. Just wondering, do you see where in your sig I got the idea from? I personally think it looks a lot better if you can see it in the sig, because i don't think I did the image justice.
