Animated Glyph Design

Motto: "A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination."
Weapon: Sniper Rifle
potatofarmgirl.blog- Brianne Drouhard, a TF Animated Designer, shares some sketches of her version of Transformers Animated Glyph. Glyph was a convention exclusive toy offered back in 2002.

While not expected to be a part of the show (or will she?), it's still interesting to see favorite character designs done in this aesthetic.

You can view the blog here, and Brianne's images below, colored by Claire Lenth.

Very nice, both Tap-Out and Glyph together in the Animated style.

Considering that it's implied that that body shape is shared with a few individuals on Cybertron in the Animated continuity, there's a fair chance.

Actually, isn't it up to 6 now? Bumblebee, Cliffjumper, and Wasp have been on the show. We've also seen art for Glyph, Tap-Out (from this picture: http://derrickjwyatt.blogspot.com/2009/ ... fools.html), and I know I've seen a Hubcap design somewhere, too. Mind you, not all of these may make it to the cartoon... but it's interesting to note, at least.

Now, let's see BugByte in white and violet... Then, um... Oh, Elite Guard Bumblebee, in black and gold! Then maybe a pink one, and a gray one, and a brown one...

HAH! So what would Bumblebee's personality fragments be?

Blue (Glyph) - Compassion "I'll protect you, no matter what!"
White (BugByte) - Mischeviousness "Hey, let's go deflate Ratchet's tires!"
Green (Tap-Out) - Impulsiveness "Time's wastin'... let's get goin' NOW!"
Orange (Hubcap) - Ego/Pride/Hubris "I'm the fastest bot there is!"
Black (Goldbug) - Loyalty "No matter the danger, I'm by your side."

Well, obviously. I know that. I read it. But primeoptimus asked for an Animated Devastator design, so I provided one.

Also, check the sig image rules.
