Artist Darren Rawlings has taken some of the coolest vehicles from our childhoods, including K.I.T.T., the A-Team van, and of course the Back To The Future DeLorean, and turned them into his vision of what they'd look like as Transformers.

The altmodes look really good, almost too good, especially when compared to the 'bot modes. Like, the altmodes were found on google image search and then photoshopped. The 'bot and altmodes just don't seem congruent.
You sure this stuff wouldn't have been a better headliner for the weekly roundup?
Too lazy to look the guy up to see if he's a professional. (I also don't care enough. I did notice that his deviant account refers to him as a, Professional Member, whatever that means.)
Neat idea though!

One problem, though, the A team van looks like Mr. T, the DeLorean has Marty's hoverboard, but KITT isn't on a bathroom floor with a cheeseburger

KITT would never turn into a Vehicon.

That reminds me, is this the same guy who did that daily T-shirt design of these same vehicles plus Airwolf combined into Mr. Hardhat? (in that it had Jetfire's toy head) Cuz...that looked a LOT cooler than any of these.Desslok2201 wrote:It's not complete..maybe add the General Lee and a bike from Chips
I like the A-Team Van best because it could also be a template for a crossover toy of Renegades Roadblock and the Coyote, neither of which got the Joe figure and vehicle they deserved (did they?)

() Airwolf- How could anyone forget that piece of awesomeness?
() Blue Thunder
() MASH Helicopter
() Knight Riders Truck, KARR (with voice chip featuring Peter Cullen lol), and the enemy truck Goliath I think his name was.
() BSG Viper and Cylon Raider
() MASK- why not combine them with TFs?
Id go a step further and include iconic movie vehicles too.
() EM-50 from Stripes
() Last Starfighter
() Bandits Trans-Am
() BTF Train
() Firefox
() Big Trouble in Little Chinas Pork Chop Express...sure its a stretch but I love that movie!!

It's class isn't it, I just wish I was better at customs, I'd lover to have a go at making it.

However, KARR, being the primary driver of himself and an AI, having that robotic robot form fits him perfectly. Quick change of eye/scanner to yellow, and add the two-tone silver look (First appearance KARR was a lame repaint with only a yellow scanner, when the recoloerd him it made him much more distinctive... )
Now, a "true" KITT with much more of a "human" quality to him instead of the Cylon look would be appropriate, though he'd definitely have to have those '80s visor shades as the pattern for the eye/scanner... For some reason I'm thinking a transformation/look closer to Tracks than the Vehicon. For added effects, use that last season "super mode" to help bulk him up if necessary (especially in bot form).
