Well I have my first fully digitized render for one of my designs in my little crossover art series “Transformers: Autobots in Equestria”. Here is the Autobot Scout, Bumblebee!
 
Like I said in the WIP sketch upload, he was largely inspired by Animated Bumblebee with a little nod to the movie Bee being he is mute. He keeps that mouthpiece on to allow him to make R2-D2esque sounds to communicate in robot mode but he removes it when he finally gets his voice back thanks to the magic of the Elements of Harmony.
 
Someone did mention earlier how they are tired of seeing Bumblebee in literally every version of Transformers ever since the movie and I do agree he is overused (especially with toys, my goodness!) but that’s why, design-wise, I chose Animated Bee but I liked the idea of him being mute and getting his voice back much like TF Prime Bee did.
 
With that said, I absolutely LOVE how I was able to incorporate all the parts of the dragon into his robot mode design and weapons! I can’t wait to get the others done but I think this one is my favorite one of all the Autobots I’ve done so far!
 
Well that’s all for now guys. I think the next one will be Prime so stay tuned!
