These two warriors really wanted to work off some extra energy and came to us. I dare say that it was the best decision they’ve made in a while!
Please, give a hand to Transformers Robots in Disguise (2015) Sideswipe and Windblade!

A drawing featuring Transformers Robots in Disguise (2015) Windblade, laying prone raising her head up, with Sideswipe, who is penetrating her from above and behind. Sideswipe has an excited/triumphant expression, while Windblade’s face is in ecstasy.
I remember reading all hail Megatron and thought Sunstreaker died lmao. It was such a sad end for him I thought but when I read more about him and sideswipe…damn
I NEED to draw him more. And sideswipe of course…IDW Lamborghini twins deserve better
Actually a lot of transformers deserve better but this is just…typical IDW angst lol.
I was listening to ‘Look Away’ by The Dear Hunter (yes inspired by warrior cats don’t @ me) and it reminded me of Sunstreaker- don’t ask how, it just sorta happened
Actually 'Jimmy, he whispers’ by Manchester Ochestra (yes inspired by warrior cats too >:v) kinda fits them too, a bit of a stretch with the lyrics but still…go listen to those songs ️️
Coffee Sideswipe. I did a coffee painting of Sideswipe today, and shot some progress pics along the way. Also, I forgot to add the last step. (Derp.) Once you’ve darkened your shadows to your liking, allow the coffee to dry completely. After that, you can scan it, photograph it, frame it, or do whatever you like. These coffee arts are a really fun, relaxing way to practice value paintings.
@best–strategist I’ll add eyes one day. For now, happy Halloween!
I swear it would have been a lot better had I not learned last moment your transform or treater hadn’t contacted you yet. But hey for like four ish hours of work it wasn’t bad.
Sideswipe transformed up just outside of the clearing, peering through the branches to get a better look around. It looked empty, but he knew that didn’t mean anything. Not when cassetticons and invisible spies came into play.
There was a popfrom behind, just a moment before arms wrapped around his waist and lifted him.
“Caught you!”
“Skywarp!” Sideswipe laughed. He turned around as soon as his pedes were on the ground, jumping up into Skywarp’s arms. Skywarp caught him around the waist, holding him off the ground high enough to kiss as he walked them both into the clearing. “I wasn’t sure you’d make it.”
Skywarp set him back down and shrugged one shoulder. “Kinda just popped away, ‘s easy.”
Summary: Sideswipe and Sunstreaker are each nursing some new crushes and developments, but neither is exactly what the other would consider a good choice.
Notes: For Bibi (@dontcrime) as their @transform-or-treat Halloween gift exchange. This uses two of the prompt ideas, when I read them they just seemed to go really well together!
(Also notes, oh my god why doesn’t Tumblr retain formatting in a copy/paste. This would have been up so much faster, sorry!)
Time for the third instalment of the Truth on Micron Legend! Here we take a look at the B Team. A majority of these episodes are still very good, some almost good enough to make the cut for an A Team level episode. The most prolific directors in this field is Masayuki Motsumoto, having directed Confrontation,Swoop,Vacation, Tactician, Detection, Past Part 1, Threaten, Puppet and Alliance. A rather mixed bag here. All these episodes feature some great animation as well as some that is less than stellar and the ratio is often very different. Past, Part 1 would probably be the most consistent outing.
It’s a very strong episode, but nothing that is truly amazing.
Many other episodes feature small amounts of really strong animation but overall are very average. I’ve mentioned before that it’s likely that Hidehito Ueda contributed many small sequences throughout the series, but here I don’t think that’s the case for the most part.
Masayuki’s quality animation is very stylised. It’s not like anything we’ve looked at before. Very harsh lines and shadows.
Alliance is probably the poorest episode, featuring many colouring errors (some which were not even present in the unfinished version!), scale problems, and overall poor animation. However, it does feature Unicron’s transformation, which is fantastic sequence, so I guess that’s where the budget on that episode was funnelled.
Next up is Shigeki Hatayama, who directed such episodes as Comrade, Underground, Credulous, Reinforcement, Awakening and Sacrifice. Shigeki episodes are typified by being very strong overall, but often featuring small amounts of very poor, off model animation.
Underground being the exception, which is overall a pretty poor outing.
Ken'ichi Ishikura directed the episodes Rescue, Uprising and Union. These three episodes have a huge disparity in quality. Rescue is pretty average with some very strong moments here and there. Union is almost good enough to be a A quality episode, though I do think significant amounts of this episode were directed by the mysterious director who worked on the revised animation in the series. Uprising, on the other hand is one of the poorest episodes in the whole series.
Lots of off model drawings, a huge lack of shading and detail.
It’s an unfortunate beginning to the last arc of the series, which after this, would be a very strong batch of episodes.
Next we have a group of directors who each appeared only once in the series. Ryo Motohira who directed Carnival, Shigeki Awai who directed Ruin and Mihiro Yamaguchi who directed Mars. All of these episodes are pretty strong and consistent. Carnival features a lot of nice, dynamic animation.Ruin has a beautiful underwater colour palate.Mars is pretty consistent but does feature some weird moments here and there.
Finally there’s time to mention Satoru Kusuda, who only seemed to work as a co-director on episodes such as Underground,Credulous, Conspiracy and Tactician. Because of this, it’s really hard to determine what effect Satoru had on the animation in these episodes.
So that’s the B Team. Average, gets the job done but nothing really amazing. Next time it’s the C Team, who barely make the cut for watchable episodes.
