this is my main blog where i mostly reblog funny/helpful stuff i come across. any likes and follows will come from this account!! YOU WONT SEE MY ART/WRITING HERE!!
style practice with some jet set radio inspired music bots 🎶
as usual i immediately got carried away and designed some graffiti-ish text tags + also Prowl as the police and the "final boss"... ULTRA MAGNUS !!
alt version as well as closeups and extras under the cut!
Fun extra facts/details:
There are two different fonts for Autobot and Decepticons, and the JBS! tag actually uses both! Soundwave’s "S" is the Decepticon one. The text on her hoodie (partially obscured) also says "SW"
All the text other than that and SWINDLE are in Autobot!
Jazz was the one who graffiti'd the police car- she's even still holding the spraycan :3c
The police cars in JSR are modelled after a 1970 Toyota Crown (thank you, Internet Game Cars Database) but I swapped it out for a Nissan Datsun as a homage to Prowl's alt mode. It... really looks kind of the same because how much of it is hidden but!! Now you know!!!!
Prowl's design is loosely based on his IDW design (bullbar) and his Prime design (visor)
I specifically chose Not to give Prowl a gun, but then I saw this panel in a screenshot of the game again and. yeah. noncanon to all this, but man what a wild thing to include in a game.
Ultra Magnus takes the place of Gouji Rokkaku because I thought it would be funny.
He's also obsessed with rules and order, which I thought was fitting for the setting. (He wouldn't try to summon a demon though.)
If you go with an IDWish slant, it even fits re: his successors sharing the same name and looking exactly like him 😂
ALSO the last bossfight has the boss at a set of turntables and I straight up was like haha what if. Desk instead.
Speaking of- I think his desk can roll around à la Eric Andre style from that one clip of him with Lil Nas.
And that's all! If you read all the way to the bottom, thank you! ily ❣️
Wjdhsuskdkxhshd ahhhhhg omg i can't express how much i love this!!!! The designs!!! The colors!!!! The killer perspective shot!!! The fact these 3 are working together as a bad bitch trio!!! The army of prowls!!! It's just- AJHHHHH!!!
Ok i need to list specifics that make me go nuts about this. I love how Soundwave is covered head to toe and it wearing bag clothing. Ya gotta respect character designs where you have know idea what's going on under the mask, and both them and the author have no plans to tell you. It's very under-rated. HOWEVER! That skirt is killer and I now headcanon canon Soundwave would wear skirts/dresses if given the chance. Also shout out to Ravage being a straight up puma (with killer style), Lazerbeak and Buzzsaw being little goober pigeons, and the pins on Soundwave's bag referencing the rest of the cassettes.
Omg the logo!? I didn't even notice it at first but it goes so incredibly hard. Like wtf!? That's so badass!!! And the name? "Trans-formers grindset" even more so.
I know I shouldn't give cops more attention but I can't get over how silly the fucking army of prowl wannabes are. (yeah i know it's part of their uniform, shut up its still funny.) I hate to say it but prowl himself is looking mighty cool. That trenchcoat is doing wonders. As for Ultra Magnus. Ah Mr Ultra Magnus, my boy, I don't think I could hate any version of you. (Well maybe shattered glass but shush we don't talk about that) I love that he's built like a bunker wall and words can not describe how him riding around in his desk is etching it's way into my brain. Well except for the fact he has major Haltman from Kirby energy, but like not evil and possessed by a super computer (wait- oh no, my brain is making connections.)
Omg I am so jealous of Jazz's hair and her outfit. I think Im a sucker for hair like that. And I'll always fuck with fingerless gloves and baggy pants. The splashes of color in the racing stripes really tie everything together.
Blaster looks like such a punk and im so here for it! The floofy hair barely contained by the hat/headphones, the bra & big jacket combo, the bulkiest of kick ass boots with little glass windows? speakers. Just ah, peak design right there.
Then there's the amount of effort you put into their tags. I love how their tags reflect their personality and the fact Soundwave uses the decepticon S in their joined tag is genius! All of the tags and signage is just so fun!
Overall mad props mate! You did an amazing job, and I have such a high respect for you now! Keep up the awesome awesome work!
It's the moment you've been waiting for, watchers!
