THUNDERCRACKER GETS HIS DUE

This is a version of Thundercracker I am working on, using the design from the existing transformer movies but changing the propotions to about where I think they SHOULD have been, and then making it into the seeker character I've always loved but no one ever seems to give any props too.

Well rest assured, while this is just an adjustment of existing designs, seeing as I'd also make TC an F22 this is the direction I'd probably go in for that particular character, so let me know what you think while I design my own unique version.

I'd probably make mine even beefier/bulkier than this here, actually.

THUNDERCRACKER DRAFT A1

for Comparison, here's my rough sketch:

AUTOBOT SCOUT - Designation: BUMBLEBEE

This one's even more finished than the last! I think I've pretty much discovered my new method of drawing/coloring... this, in it's current state, only took about an hour or less altogether!

BIO:

BUMBLEBEE, as he has taken to calling himself, is one of the smallest Autobots, but certainly not the weakest! Far beyond fear, Bumblebee is always the first to shove himself headlong into the action.

Seving as one of Optimus Prime's main recon men, Bumblebee often finds himself deep behind enemy lines on missions of grave importance - and he always seems to be able to find a way out, too.

He has taken the form of a VW BUG to match his monkier, and he couldn't be happier - aside from the whole war thing.

AUTOBOT WARRIOR - Designation: IRONHIDE

^^^What that says. ^_^
- not completely finished yet, but I can always update later, right? HAHA, the Internet.

Bio:
One of OPTIMUS PRIME's oldest friends, IRONHIDE is one of the most grizzled soldiers on the Cybertronian battlefield. If Prime needs some grit and some muscle, he knows this is the guy he should go to first.
Currently assuming the form of a small Recreation Vehicle, Ironhide doesn't always share the fondness the other Autobots have for the human race, but it's not like he's about to start firin' cannons all over the place.
Some time ago, Ironhide adopted the rugged accent of the American Southwest - often going as far as to imitate the sayings of the likes of John Wayne and Clint Eastwood for dramatic effect.
He is probably the most 'blue' of any Autobot, and frequently defers to Cybertronian slur to assault his enemies.

BUMBLEBEE Takes his True Form!

and by that of course I mean he's once again a Vdub Bug.

(inspired by the look of the two most heinous and stereotypical Transformers ever created - only this time looking like a) - an actual established character, and b) - not half as sub-human looking. )

if you don't know who I'm talking about; good. if you do, great. If clueless, just search "herp and derp transformer twins" on Google Images or whatnot.

pleaseandthankyouverymuch.

.... WUUUTTTTT (?)_(?)

YOU WILL NEVA GET THIS PICTURE OUTTA YOUR HEAD NOW HAHAHA...

....makes you think, doesn't it? (evil laughs....)

and improved:

....makes ME wonder... are they implying this direction with Spielberg/Bay's movies?  judging by optimus' behavior in #2... who can tell anymore? hahaha

... I doubt Michael Bay could actually be that DEEP about it though... 

SKYFIRE! (or Jetfire, call him what you prefer :D)

Cybertronian Scientist: Designation: SKYFIRE

forget what you were tricked into thinking with the character presented in Michael Bay's "Revenge of the Fallen" - Jetfire was never an old black Scottish Blackbird.

For those of us who were fans, The character was alternatively known as Jetfire/Skyfire (in the cartoon he "needed" to be renamed because his original toy was a knockoff of Robotech/Macross' main transforming robot).

He was a Red White and Blue Jumbo jet that crashed into the arctic millions of years ago (uh-oh did I just reveal who's storyline they ripped this off for in Transformers 1? ;P) and was later resurrected by the Decepticons and drafted into their army, seeing as he used to be best friends with Starscream before The Great War started.

Now, after realizing that the Decepticons are generally nasty 'bots, he has joined the cause of Optimus Prime and the Autobots to fight for peace and justice, AND HE'S OUT FOR 'CON'S DIODES!
