Description
MEET THE DECEPTICONS!(aka fullview please)part 1 is here!
Hoookay, finally I got to finish part 2 of the Transformers in human forms.
1) most of their faces don't resemble humans at all. they look more reptilian or insect-like(especially Scorponok)
2) most of 'em didn't get much screen time(or any dialogue, for that matter)
Still, I somehow managed to nail all 8 of them(whew!) Here we go:
1) Megatron- Since in the movie he's supposed to be Prime's brother, I tried to make him look like they're really related(you may notice his beard looks like it has small side grills). He's got meaner eyebrows and a thicker mane(to look like his helmet) and I gave him that Agent Smith grin(he did voice him) As for what he's wearing, well he did got stuck in the Arctic remember?
2) Starscream- For some reason when I stare at Screamer's closeup I have this picture of Antonio Banderas in my head, specifically in his role in Desperado. So what the heck, might as well use him(a more angular, sneakier version). Also, his hair does stand in well for the shape of his helmet.
3) Barricade- I didn't want to give him a unibrow so I kept his hat on
4) Frenzy- He was so annoyingly all over the place he might as well be Officer Barricade's crazy hyperactive kid
5) Scorponok- Oh man, he's the most difficult one. Since he(it?) was more or less a mindless machine that followed Blackout's every command, I figured he might just as well be some real psycho... kinda like cross Anthony Hopkins' creepy stare and Steve Buscemi's creepy eyes. I also gave him long hair with a receding hairline so it flops to the side to resemble the armor plates of his head. I think you can guess who's holding his leash
6) Blackout- I thought Blackout would look great as a biker chick, in black leather and chains, riding a chopper(get it?
7) Brawl- Think of an evil Colonel Trautman(you know, Rambo? ) in his beret and smoking a cigar. Who would've known he was a tank sergeant, too?
8) Bonecrusher- Believe it or not, he's the easiest one to draw. Let's see... big, bulky, always angry, hates everything, likes to charge at stuff.... he sure reminds me of a certain wrestler named Goldberg!
There ya have it folks!

This one is even better than the Autobot one in my opinion. And your right, Megatron (who looks totally HOT by the way) does look like Ozzy Osbourne especially during his Black Sabbath days. You are after my own heart... Not only do you mention Ozzy Osbourne, but you also mentioned Rally Vincent from Gunsmith Cats in your Autobots thread... I am a nerd for both GSC and Sabbath/Ozzy....
You really captured Starscreams arrogance here. He looks like the stuck up pretty boy he thinks he is....
Blackout as a chick is interesting and really cool I think. I never would have thought of it but it really works. And Scorponok looks nuts. He actually does look kinda like Steve Buscemi.
Frenzy looks like some crazy raver kid who rolls on X a lot.

They really do look like one crazy evil bunch, no? Thanks!

wow, these are really awsome. I really like what you did with starscream here, the look really pulls him off nicely, and barricade is also well drawn and his hat is awsome. Not so sure that i like blackout as a chick though, cuz he is my favorite con >>;;; but the disign itself is very nice

Obviously, Brawl is also easy to draw. Look, he's destructive, mean and obsessed with destruction. You probably shouldn't have drawn Colonel Trautman.

batangbatugan In reply to Coolie76 [2007-12-10 11:26:24 +0000 UTC]
Well he really isn't Trautman, I just based him on the guy- but much younger, a bit uglier and with weird facial hair

scorponock's my fave. He really is. He just looks so bat-ass-crazy. Reminds me of that twitchy, predatory insect stare. I imagine having lots of facial ticks and sudden neck jerks.
And wow, Bonecrusher, he's totally a wrestler. I like that you referenced his bio from the back of the action figure! XD

I adore these -- they're possibly my favorite human!Transformers on DA. There are others that look fantastic, but they just don't have the same feel as their mechanical form. With these, you can easily see the similarities between facial structures and details -- like the narrowness of Blackout's face, and the facial hair on Brawl. Somuchlove.

Thank you very much! I think it really helps when you put them side by side with their robot counterparts^^

iggywaffle In reply to batangbatugan [2007-11-30 08:29:41 +0000 UTC]
It does! At first I thought your interpretation of Blackout was a little odd, but then I took a closer look at his robotic design and the similarities between the two, and not only did it start to make perfect sense, but it really grew on me. You've got a crazy awesome attention to detail, not just with facial features but with accessories, too.
AND YOU DIDN'T MAKE OPTIMUS INTO A TWENTY-SOMETHING YEAR OLD. This makes me very happy. I've seen tons of holo!Optimus pictures that make him look very, very young, but I've always had the impression that Optimus is kind of a middle-aged soul. I looked it up on Wikipedia, and I guess canonically Ironhide is the oldest, but Optimus has kind of that balance in morality and such that typically comes from being around two different generations, like, say, Hide and Bumblebee.
I am so sorry, I'm off on a tangent. I'm really not as obsessed as I sound, the mythology of the series is just interesting. -cough- >.>;

batangbatugan In reply to iggywaffle [2007-11-30 15:59:37 +0000 UTC]
haha, I don't mind at all^^ that was also what I was thinking about when I was working on Prime. The biggest factor was the voice, it has a mature, tough, commanding, fatherly sound to it, so anything below middle age doesn't seem to fit him at all.
Well I've had some practice referencing faces whle working for comics. I can't really capture likenesses very well, but I try to make the new face remind the reader of the original face I based it on. It's just that this time, I never knew I'd be referencing robots

Veeeery interesting, if I do say so myself. I would never imagine any of the Transformers as humans, but the idea is great nonetheless. I like how you envisioned them like this!
