Drawings
Super Deformed Transformers:
Ultra Magnus
Cosmos
Warpath
Bumblebee
Ramhorn
Other Transformers:
G1 Megatron: I scanned a sketch
I made on paper and colored it in using Paint Shop Pro. Unfortunately I
don't know a
handy method how to make him "shine", like for example Dan Khanna does
on his drawings, but the final result
looks cool nonetheless.
TM Scorponok: A sketch I made of a possible
design for a transmetal version of Scorponok. It's obviously not a completely
finished design, but it's a start.
Miscellaneous:
background logos (black and white, so you can
choose the colors with a drawing program like Paint Shop Pro)
Home made Fuzors:
When pictures of the Fuzors started appearing on the net for the first time, I immediately started inventing my own Fuzors. Here are the results:
Tarantakill: Squid / Tarantula
Crog: Crocodile / Frog
Aquasting: "Sword tail fish" / Scorpion
Crococeros: Crocodile / Rhinoceros
Amphish: Salamander / bass
Phoror: Phorusrhacus / Jaguar
Kitbashed figures
Cyberjet Backfire (jet,
robot)
Cyberjet Backfire is a repainted Cyberjet Strafe into the colors of
one of my fanmade characters, Backfire. Actually, the only things
it has in common with Backfire, are that it's a jet and that it's blue.
The jet and robot form of the "real" Backfire are totally different though.
Backfire (full
view, close-up)
This unposable figure is mostly made out of balsa wood and it looks
almost exactly as how I vision him. It isn't entirely finished though,
I still have to add the wings and tail piece folded onto his back. I still
haven't found the necessary material for it yet.

Fanmade characters
The following characters are Transformers that I made up myself (mostly
during boring lectures:)). I haven't
written any fanfics for them, simply because I'm a very poor writer
(in dialog form that is), but if anyone would like
to use them in fanfics, please LMK. The continuity in which the characters
I create live, is a lot different from
the comic and the TV series. A detailed history and description of
my continuity will be added in the future.
And now for something completely different:
Lego Transformers
As a kid I often used to build Transformers out of legos. Some time ago I tried to recreate a few of them again, and here are the results:
Onslaught
When I build this one I had never even seen an Onslaught toy, but I
based it on a (tiny) catalog picture. It's
remarkable that it actually looked very much like the real toy version
in truck form and it's even about the same
size! The robot form is rather different, because I made it so small,
it left little possibilities for it's transformation.
Super Powermaster Optimus Prime, Strike RV and Skeye
- Powermaster Optimus Prime:
This is an improved version of the one I made as a kid. The
original version had different heads, the legs couldn't split etc.
The transformation of the cab is basically the same as the non-PMOP.
When it combines with the trailer, the legs actually
slide into the large legs and split along with the large legs,
without detaching them! I even made a transformable PM figure,
which can be attached to the chest of the bigger robot. In base
mode, it combines with Skeye and Strike RV to form a repair
bay / communication center / defense fortress.
- Skeye:
Skeye can transform from a robot into a jet with an AWACS type
radar system and forms the communication system when
combined with the base.
- Strike RV:
A new addition to Powermaster OP. Strike RV transforms from
a van into a robot and can combine with PMOP to form
Super Powermaster Optimus Prime (similar to God Bomber combining
with Super Jinrai to Super God Jinrai).
Deathpinch
Deathpinch is a true triplechanger. He transforms from a robot into
a hovercraft and into a scorpion. His transformation is hideously complex.
It has around fifty(!) joints, even when counting each side of his scorpion
legs as one, since they are connected. When I started with this robot it
was my intention to see how far I could go in complexity. The most difficult
part of the transformation is forming the robot legs. They consist of the
scorpion's tail, which splits into two halfs which fold up and form the
outsides of his legs. The insides and feet are build up from the front
of the hovercraft. What makes this legobot even more special is that it
has no loose parts, the whole transformation works through rotating joints!
The only downside is that all these joints make it rather fragile, so the
transformation has to be done carefully, or it breaks into pieces.
Double Finish
Double finish is a sort of Duocon. He transforms from a robot into two
cars, an old F-1 style race car and a sort buggy.
I entered this Legobot into the "Constructiebot Contest" at Botcon
Europe '99.
