Based on that one chiikawa comic because it's so Tailgate
STOBOTNIK TRAIN I'M JUMPING IN
Batwave concept š¤ā¦ except also bugwaveā¦. I wanna implement both of those thangs (because of how the poll went). I couldnāt figure how his face would look so Iāve come to the conclusion that his visor(?) Is his face š (tho thereās a chance I might change it to a human head,, not sure yet) itās just that he mimics a human by tucking his head in a certain way thatās convincing enough, trust.. as for the bug stuff? Itās more subtle Iād say, sure the exoskeleton is a clearer thing (yes that technically means heās shirtless in this one, boy cover up!!!) but there are biological things happening that I donāt feel like explaining yet š just know I spent a whole night researching certain bugs. For his bat side I mostly referenced fruit/flying fox bats cuz their slim faces worked best with him
I felt like there wasnāt enough obviously-bug stuff going on so I kinda wanted to give him two pairs of wings like bugs do, but Iām not sure yet if they Are bat wings or if theyāre like bug wings that mimic bat wings š¤ which would be preferred??? Usually though, in this au thing heād have them covered/hidden, kinda like how mantids or beetles would have their wings flush to the body and typically seem hidden. Tho a part of me still wants to give him insect wings cuz it matches his usual streamlined body yknow?
Iāve been drawing my Human Soundwave always covering his neck because I always imagined it to be how heād hide his non-humanness š¤ not sure how tall he is yet tho. Likely very tall tbh, maybe his visor thing is the equivalent of a bug face (exoskeleton) ,,, yet is shaped like a batās head. If that makes sense
Bonus the line art just cuz I like how it is⦠since bugs are like the top dogs in mimicry I like to imagine Soundwave going in on that š similar to how many people like to think Prime Soundwave looks like a sparkeater! Soundwave here? Mostly not human. But pretends to be and is good at it

They can literally produce steam when theyre mad huh?
starscream + the hatchlings in my human formers bayverse au thing. The hatchlings are still mini protoforms, except built and incubated in pods to be used as living weapons. their veins pump a splash of energon, oil, and most importantly human blood
Starscream feels the same caretaking instinct youād feel for your favorite childhood tamagotchi over them
šthere is a reason in my ff, shes joked as their smoll bby!!
Trust me this is why Thundercracker wasnāt in Earthspark šÆ Tc, a seeker, blue, has sonic abilities, I mean sheās basically both Starscream and Soundwave combined š
I really like the idea of Cybertronians and jewelry. It's cute and the influences from Earth are adorable to imagine on a giant alien robots servo.
I can go along with this Earth custom
