Drift - Blast Off rain test animation (2018) with colours (2023)
Blast Off design by Dou Hong https://douhong.blogspot.com/2011/11/ Many continuity issue. completed 90% of animation 5 yrs ago. I forgot design of some thing. storyboard action seems silly in hindsight. Pacing is rough. It has been five years since I drew this. A lot of shots were removed.
Windblade, Blast Off, and Swindle spend time with Zainab at the wedding. Zainab and Onslaught pose for picture. Vortex...also poses for picture. Zainab and Nautica surface from an underwater trip. And Brawl and Zainab relax in the sun.
You know what, I love the colors on the Combaticons. I could get into how each color design suits their personalities because man they really do but I won’t because that’s a whole post in of itself.
But anyway. Onslaught’s colors? I mean, look at that. Beautiful.
I think Brawl has a similar green for his frame, but he ALSO looks really good in it. Also very pretty.
Blast Off? Kind of an interesting color combination, but I LOVE IT. It really really suits him… don’t ask me why I think that, I can’t explain it. Kind of gives sopping wet kitten vibes but I’m here for it.
I FUCKING LOVE VORTEX’S COLORS. The teal with the grey, a little bit of purple in there too? Also some red because of course… It’s so different, almost random, so unique. IT SUITS HIM SO WELL. I love him. I love it.
I left Swindle for last, the flamboyant little bastard, but his colors are so pretty. Eye-catching, a little glamorous, really fit his personality. Holding myself back from going into a character study based on their frame colors but here have it just have it already. Full body pic for him, gotta get all of the goodness.
I love them all so much, but I especially love their colors.
Combaticons (2022)
Last year i decided to redo designs for two combiner teams i had designs for and the Combaticons were one of em! Vortex ended up being my favourite of the bunch
