ink_in_handSome very old pics of my own Decepticon team back from when I wasn't sure and had very little idea of how to draw transformers at all. That and they're all pretty bland pose wise, I was concentrating on their designs at the time. None of them are quite yet finished, I'm still tweaking their designs here and there.
Brief history is that Megatron makes some sort of comment after the Dinobots foil yet another one of his plans. The Constructicons decide to take it as an order and a challenge, they then build the Sauricons. Beyond just creating individual one-on-one Dinobot heavy hitters, they made the team more animal accurate, and gave them secondary skill sets. In part that it was practical and partly to mock their enemies.
Edit: I failed to mention that during their attempts to outdo the Autobot engineers, the Constructicons overcompensated in their 'fixing' of the Dinobot concept. Leading to a number of flaws on the opposite end of the spectrum.
They are in no particular order...
Sawblade: Transforms into a Giganotosaurus, leader and tactician.
Landmine: Transforms into an Euplocephalus, heavy hitter and terrain analyst.
Torpedo: Transforms into a Tylosaurus, air support and scout.
Batteringram: Transforms into a very large Stymoloch, defense breaker and hacker.
Wardrum: Transforms into a Charonosaurus, communications and make-shift medic.
If you can't read my writing, Sawblade is asking what Batteringram is doing and the reply he gives is "Posen".
Was shooting for a team picture here. That didn't quite turn out as planned.
A color test for Torpedo.
Pretty happy with this, but I might change how the device on Wardrum's back looks.
This LJ thing is getting addicting.
