Transformer Prime Details I’ve Noticed

The Autobot’s computer keyboard keys are short, small and squarely.

maybe cause it’s built with Ratchet’s square fingers in mind:

The Decepticon’s keyboard keys is long and sleekly:

Probably cause it’s built with Soundwave’s long and sharp fingers in mind:

pat on the back for the designers who considered this

(Orion Pax trying to type on the Decepticon’s keyboard with his giant wide square fingers)

As a Transformers newbie introduced to it by a friend through TF One:

Me: *points at heavily pixelized random bot from TF One* Who's this one??

Her: That's Ironhide.

Me, confused: *points at another blurry picture* And this one?

Her: That's Prowl!

Me, incredulously: HOW CAN YOU TELL????? HUH???

Her, matter of factly: By his head.

Me:

Me:

Me: HIS HEAD????? WHAT?

Transformer Prime Details I’ve Noticed #2

In TFP Season 2 Episode 2, “Orion Pax Part 2” (and basically in all three Orion Pax episode and in a later “Flying Mind” episode as well (s2 ep11)) we got to see what Cybertronian written language— at least their coding language— look like.

And we can see that these are all geometrical lines and shapes. But what else are full of Geometrical lines and shapes in Transformations?

The Transformers themselves.

Now if you have ever drawn Transformer characters fanarts, especially TFP ones, you’ve probably have stared or traced at at least some of them for a good amount of times to study each their anatomy and structures to draw them well (cause they are so complicated and I’m sorry for artists who have to go through this), and you can probably agree that yeah, almost every transformer in the show are built of geometrical shapes and patterns.

So what does this tells us?

I think this means that EITHER: TFP Cybertronians’ ancestors have took inspirations from their own body to inspire their language.

OR: they specifically designs their armors this way so they can hide words and quotes in there.

Or maybe both!

Personally my money is on that their current type of bodies came first and then they designed their language based on their own bodies.

And you know what is crazier?

If you think about, that, you’ll realize that when Jack visited Cybertron, there’s a number of these similar patterns covering the buildings and the grounds!

Now to us these could simply look like space fillers, but to Cybertronians these lines could be words! Which could possibly be writing the address of the place, a quote of a celebrity, or a message even! (I’m going with its writing the address of this place)

Showing him off because I'm proud as hell

I think the doorwings are one of the best parts because guess what! I animated them

So basically the animations they have: Idle, walking, running, swimming, jumping, hurt

He was a pain to texture and at some point I got scared I'll have to start from scratch, mostly because I messed up the files and the textures wouldn't apply. Obviously in the end I fixed it because I simply can't stop winning.

His animations also got a bit messed up. I planned for it to be possible to run and jump without the jumping animation interrupting the running one but oh well.(Not sure what went wrong I adjusted the priorities correctly)

Also I'm thinking of adjusting the hurt animation to be faster because it's not as clear

Annndddd also have a regular skin of him I made. He's very bald though

It's just that I got too hungry and bit his doorwings off. Whoopsies!

Anyway 👋

Even apart they’re still facing the same struggles 😔 Not that they’re thinking about each other or anything. Why would you suggest that.
