Description
With this godsdarned heat I can't do much other than scribble sketches. *tries not to melt away* It has lasted like a week now.. Shouldn't complain, winter gets enough of freezing and shivers for me. ;u; So I'm keeping up with my art inspiration while waiting the weather to cool down at least a bit so I'm not sticky all over the place so I can do more proper art. Stickiness, pencil and paper don't go hand in hand at all.First of all, if this somehow resembles something familiar to you, you're right! Her alt-mode is that of a Hot Wheels RD-01.
Krhm, so she was bored of her alt-mode and asked around for any good options. SG didn't find anything that looked appealing enough until she was dragged to a shop, by Battery Box, that sold random scrap imported from Earth. There she looked around for quite some time, and by accident she kicked a box on the floor that contained a lot of toy cars. They were very tiny, but they clearly saw many good options. Shuffling through the few hundreds of toys with BB, they came to a conclusion to pick the RD-01 as the new alt-mode. Since it was a toy car, SureGrip contacted Brainstorm and requested a proper Cybertronian design out of it. The scientist more than gladly agreed to do it if he could include his newest weaponry proto-type for testing. Since SG really liked the car model she agreed to it and after first tests of the weaponry she didn't want to know what might happen if she ever had the real need for them. Who would want to shoot enemies with ammo that bounced off of any non-living metal targets. If it didn't bounce off, it would solidify and turn into a "disgusting orange slime that gets everything stuck to it and to anything."
She likes racing and races around with Battery Box a lot.
Ps. She balances with the tail fins on her feet if you were wondering~

Thanks!
She probably looks huge because she has rather robust upper body. I'd say she's the size of TFP Smokescreen. ^^v But yeah, I try to change bots' anatomy constantly to have a variety in my fan character army instead of everyone looking like the same (based on human anatomy) with just different armor and alt-mode.
She's also not that "feminine" and with that is associated "delicate" ?
Sorry, I had to say my mind out a little to get peace with the "correct anatomy" thing. ^^

You're very welcome ^^
I see, I guess that's ok because they're robots after all ^^' I get it, I do have a TF character that is like 0% feminine xD cant even give her femme's facial traits cuz she's a cyclops and "lamphead" like Shockwave. I think even Train would look curvy and more "womanly"(I mean that when you look at Train, you know that is a female character) next to my Vega (who I would have to specify that is female if I ever upload a pic of her) but Train is, of course, the bigger 'Con

I prefer not to use words "female" and "male" of a species that doesn't even reproduce like organics. I just use words 'masculine' and 'feminine', and even that is due to how we humans perceive life. If a bot calls herself a "she" but doesn't look feminine in our eyes at all people get confused and vice versa.
If my characters swapped pronoun from she to he and he to she, it would make zero difference in how they behave or talk or look.
So my point here is; she or he, feminine or masculine... it doesn't matter to them. All that matters is how well they perform in situations like battle, moving, work, ect. So it IS ok that they look different. It IS okay that they don't follow human anatomy, it IS okay that they can call themselves what ever they want.
Hehehehehehehehe.

Oh right! Those are the terms I was going for actually ^^'
Yeah, cuz I neither see the cybertronians as a species with that kind of biology, as I said before they're mainly sentient robots...
Heh, agreed, also is a good excuse to turn mass media's stated gender roles upside down xD (I love messing with that )

Thanks, hmm, I'd say breaking apart the human anatomy is one thing, second thing is to break it down even more and add shapes that human doesn't fit in. Rest is "add vehicle shapes and joints and colors."
