Here’s what actually happened in the chapter

Makeshift had a rough time </3 but it all worked out in the end! Yippee I love drawing

I've noticed a few posts lately talking about Makeshift from Transformers Prime.

I get the appeal. He's a minor character with a total of two appearances in fiction (not counting the children's book that's just an adaptation of "Con Job"), who has an interesting ability that gives him a lot of potential for stories. What I haven't seen though, is literally anyone talking about Universe Makeshift, so it pleases me to be the first.

I have no idea why I love him so much. I don't even think he's enough of a character to count as a Glup Shitto. He's never appeared in any fiction. He has no official bio or personality. He doesn't even have a figure that can stand properly. All he has is being a bluish-purple late 60s muscle car with knife and claw hands, but that's apparently enough for me.

Imagine Makeshift survives and he IS in every episode but you just can't tell WHO he is now. Vehicon? Seeker? Someone from the command? Autobot? No one knows. He's not trying to find any information, he's just… there. A chaotic little bastard who copies other people's looks because he can.

Too shy to go off anon sorry. I love your spike and valve charts! Could you add some odd ones if it's not too much trouble? Earthspark Brawl ( I know he didn't have much time but you never know ) and Prime Makeshift? Go wild!

Hey, it's fine, that's what anons for :D I'm glad you like them <3 I can absolutely do odd ones, hell if there's a name and a pic I can do them >:D

I have created a fanfic to express my brain

This is a Transformers Prime fanfic where it’s more focus Makeshift (and other decepticons) and if he lived and played a bigger role

Here’s what I thought Makeshift looked like based off his shadow

Transformers are very hard to draw digitally so probably when I post art here it’ll be in my sketchbook (wow me actually taking my sketchbook out and showing off, how I’ve grown <3)

More sketches!!!

For some exploration for why there’s a hole in the middle of Makeshift chest is because in the episode his in Soundwave used his tentacle(big wire? Am a call it a tentacle) it’s shoved in the middle of him and like put data in him. I also think he can scan the person he wants to copy like when someone scans for an alt mode. And I decided to get this hole more then one function as it can store things and he has a tentacle of his own!

Also I like to think he can separate or combine his digits, like shown in image above.

So what is Makeshift actually like?

He spends most of his TFP episode pretending to be Wheeljack, but he was in the Aligned novels i have no access to (all i've seen on sale were crazy expensive, and a few).
