Every great person was an unexperienced, optimistic rookie at one point.
This seemed like a good idea, I have no idea what I’m doing. Also, earth modes, because I haven’t watched Prime in a while and I don’t remember if we saw how they looked on Cybertron.
I saw this post with a low quality gif of Knock Out’s transformation in slow motion, the gif had like over 2k notes and I thought… man… this is a crime. Knock Out deserves the absolute best, so here’s a slightly more hd clip, as well as the other two transformations from Plus One.
I’d like to redirect everyone’s attention to the way his ‘underwear part’ snaps into place, it’s amazing
Also breaking news, Knock Out has an extra pair of car nipples:
Lol this is awesome!
My animation side gotta explain that last pic tho! That split second you see the two seperate rigs at the same time because they can get away with it because of the 24 fames per second. XD
When transforming there are 2 rigs. The robot rig that begins the transformation and the vehicle that ends the transformation. The animators do their best to match up the final bits of the robot rig transforming to the car rig transforming untill they have the closest they will get to a full seamless transformation.
This is trickery of animation along with a mix of healthy motion blurr. that’s why sometimes you see double during these scenes it’s the two rigs shown at the same time for a split second between one rig phasing out and the other one taking its place. Transformers prime does this prety believably I gotta say! Most of the time it’s not too glaring or noticable. 🙂
Somehow our TF conversations with @kiwiitin always spirals either to Starscream’s legs, or Shockwave’s boobs. And in this particular instance a refefence to Captain America boob touching scene was made, and somehow I promised to draw this, soooo here we go
Walking down a street, need to make a turn and you slow down but there’s like a dozen others behind you trying to squeeze past because they don’t know what the fuck you’re doing?
No worries, just turn on your left butt cheek blinker ahead of time and make that turn without causing an accident!
Like, seriously, this is a good idea. Seekers can have them on their wingtips or something, but everyone should have a set of butt blinkers so they can signal turning.
