Coalition IAR-2 Abolisher Robot

Originally released on p. 35 of Rifts Sourcebook 1

The Abolisher, Infantry Assault Robot (IAR-2), is another giant vehicle that is part of the Coalition States' military forces. Unlike the UAR-1 Enforcer, which is designed specifically to combat ground troops in an urban/city environment, the Abolisher is a frontline infantry unit with long-range capabilities and heavy firepower for obliterating enemy troops. The focus of its armaments is anti-robot and anti-tank, hence the six heavy cannons bristling around what appears to be the head. The rim of cannons has given the 30 foot (9 m) robot the nickname 'Thorn Head."

The heavily armored bot is a massive, humanoid shaped, all terrain assault vehicle designed to withstand heavy bombardment. However, in keeping with the frightening Death's Head motif, the Abolisher is designed to look like a massive skull with arms and legs. The two eyes are infra-red and conventional light searchlights for night assaults. The upper skull body can rotate 360 degrees and is operated by a five-man crew. Two soldiers are gunners operating three cannons each, the pilot and the copilot/communications engineer (either the pilot or copilot can fire the small, forward facing, dual laser turret) and the top hatch gunner, usually a SAMAS.

The big guns are devastating weapons that can blast an enemy from all sides simultaneously. The robot's arms and hands are powerful and lethal in hand to hand confrontations (can rotate 180 degrees at the shoulders). On top of the behemoth is a Gunner's Hatch which allows a SAMAS or soldier to perch himself on the head and fire at the enemy from the top of the robot. An inner hatch locks automatically, preventing the enemy from easy access should the top gunner be killed; the inner hatch can only be opened by one of the pilots.

The only real disadvantage to the 30 foot (9 m) giant is that its incredible weight and large size reduce its speed and maneuvering capabilities. Although great in the field as an outer perimeter defense or as an infantry assault unit (tank with arms and legs), its speed and size make it an easy target (hence the heavy armor). Unless one wishes to destroy a city, the bot is not well suited for city conflicts. Its weapons are too powerful for use in the city, able to demolish an S.D.C. skyscraper in mere moments, and its size and bulk makes maneuvering through narrow streets difficult. Still, it is excellent for city defense, being able to be placed wherever needed, and ideal for infantry combat.

While out and about yesterday during the super nice weather I stopped into the Dollar store and they had put out some new Knock-off Transformers or "Robot Vehicle" as these ones are being called. They're very cheap looking and well this one looked very Optimus Primeish so I picked him up. He was $2 and well you can't really go wrong for for $2 but he is a cool lil toy for the price.

tztt ghrngt fuckING ROBOTS

I blame my friend who watch partied TF1 entirely.

FUCKIN AWESOME MOVIE

imma try doin shiz with TF1 i swear to the gods imma make something stupid around them soon

Anyways here's my take on a pathetic guy cause his designs are all awesome but also hard for me. The silly eyebrows on Prime's fun to play with while I'm also just a fan of the OG/1's take of him too, I just dont know how to logic those things on his back/shoulder at ALL

basically, i like OG but it's hard to draw for me for some reason, but the spikeys on Primes is too good to give up completely for me

Egg-Carapace - Comic concept art 🚗

Another sneak peak at a potential design for my fan comic in the works!

I love the idea that, whenever a Cybertronian space-faring vessel lands or docks within a predominantly non-Cybertronian space station or port, that it's required that they either confirm or deny whether their vessel is sentient or not before being permitted to land.

1. For proper accommodation and clarification, along with the chance for communication between the vessel and crews working the station/port.

2. Because there has been... incidents... incidents that have led to the requirement of the above reasons.

Today I googled "Porsche 935 with hood open" for Transformers fanfic-writing reasons.

I'm just gonna leave these here...

I noticed that a lesser known part of the objectum/posic community is the Instagram Transport community. So I’m shedding light here:

THIS GOES ON FOREVER.

[ Transformers ]

It's always so nerve wracking for me, when i wanted to post an art about a new interest.

ON MY OWN ACCOUNT no less...

Anyway first attempt at drawing a Transformer, my very own design of Bee I made 2 months ago, and after those times I definitely can improve this, maybe one day soon.
