#Sideburn

[tokay-blog]

Next part In Rid 2001 there is a series with the appearance of Ultra Magnus, who shoots at both his own and enemy as he pursues his own goals. And the first guys he meets are Prowl and his 2 brothers (yes, Prowl is with his relatives here). And, since the creators can't to raise the degree of seriousness of this rather childish series, here is a variant of more dramatic development of events.

But it's actually just an attempt to understand the anatomy of these bots x))

I'm used to Prime, where the shapes are more... flexible...? But here they're all square. Of course, not like in G1 and not with so many details as in Armada, but still very unusual.

Design for sideburn

First attempt at a mass-produced vehicon, only three models were ever made due to all three of them joining the autobots, the youngest autobot brother seen here and two sisters, impulsive and imature sideburn is basically a robot version of a hormonal teen,

Sideburn is the youngest of the autobot brothers. Based on prowl's memories of autobot celebrity blurr, he might be the most different from their source material. prowl-2 is the most accurate as prowl obviously knows himself, x-brawn is accurate for the most part as prowl knew brawn as a confidant, but to say sideburn is similar to blurr would almost be an insult to blurr as prowl never physically met the guy, only knowing him from his role in popular culture

Sideburn is also the most shallow of the autobot brothers. He finds himself unable to really examine things beyond a surface level, never saying the right things, or considering how his actions can affect the people around him, motivated entirely by novelty, as from his perspective his life is constantly changing and thats exciting, as he was not on nightbird's side for long, as he was activated just as x-brawn, the sisters and prowl-2 were making their leave,

Oddly, Optimus Prime finds sideburn's behavior in particular kind of charming, in a similar way that people have favorite characters from stories that don't necessarily align with their real life morals, he has a soft spot for them as he does with many of his autobots, but with the brothers being impressionable, that soft spot has a great impact on them, that kindness and complexity of thought is why they want to become real transformers in the first place

Unlike his brothers who wait and aid where they can for the autobots to develop a way for them to reach their full potential, Sideburn emulates life, reaching towards qualities he doesn't have, he sees himself met with kindness, sees himself as a lifeless thing, he sees humans display attraction towards their own kind and express kindness through the attraction, he concludes, to live he must be atracted to his own kind, but diferent, he is a car, he should be attracted to other cars, so he is. Quirks of his imitation brain meat

I suffer from the fact that I can't draw robots (I haven't had practice for a long time), so I draw people

TFP AU where Prowl, Barricade, and Sideburn are brothers and Sideburn has the biggest crush on Knockout. Barricade is kissing Makeshift (thanks for that one @nemo-is-real ). And Prowl is single and homophobic because his husband (Bluestreak) died to stop the rust plague millions of years ago and his ass has not moved on. His ass HATES Decepticons more than the average Autobot because:

A. He's Prowl

B. His brother became a Decepticon

Prowl does NOT like the fact Sideburn is crushing on a Decepticon and has to remind him many times why they should hate Decepticons. Sideburn listens (no he doesn't) and promises he'll get over it (he won't).

Before Barricade's defection the brothers were close and used to do everything together. They'd argue and fight a lot but what brothers don't? Despite all the teasing they did truly love each other. But further into the war, things changed. One of them is on the enemy side and the other two hardly speak to each other.

Armada Universe Sideswipe from Legacy United RID2001 Sideburn. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------Nothing to say here except the fact that it somehow works in my opinion. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transformers, Sideswipe, Armada belong to Hasbro and Takara This digibash belongs to me

Folds my hands and smirks like a salesman ready to sell you something

I bring another Knockout ship.

So I've started watching RID 2001 and quickly got attached to Prowl's younger brother, Sideburn, who keeps flirting with every red sports car he sees whether it's sentient or not. See where I'm going?

Who better to give him the biggest crush on than our favorite red sports car, Knockout?

I can imagine a TFP AU where he replaces Smokescreen so that one scene where he's on Knockout's operating table he's not scared. Well he's certainly scared but boy is he scared and so turned on by the hot Decepticon medic threatening him.

RID 01 MENTION YAYYY!!! I’m super happy about this ask I’ve been letting it sit in my ask box so I can read it everyday. I love this idea sm yayayayay!!!

Sticker Sheet for Transformers Animated

I made a sticker sheet of various transformers from Transformers Animated. From left to right, top to bottom theres: Sideswipe but older, Red Alert, Sunstreaker, Rung, Rodimus, Hot Shot, Sideburn, Excellion/Hot Shot but he's older, and young Sideswipe. I hope you like them. Also, slight update to Sunstreaker to make his fins look more three-dimensional.

Override just did not Appreciate Side Burn Flirting on her

(I know Override is Mostly White but she's still Red Enough for Side Burn to fell in Love with her and she kinda turns into a Sport-ish Car so Close Enough)

[passionmaterial]

I love that while watching Rid2001, i created another oc x canon for sideburn, who turns into a little red sports car.

Becuase i love him and i want him to be happy
