Based Off Of That One Twt About Fav Ship Dynamics. I Thought Of Them

crazy exes

So. Yknow the whole Soundwave does have a face Hc vs does not have a face?? I was wondering how a no face Soundwave would have applied to a human version of him; and my conclusion is that that boy is NOT normal 🙏 kinda like how TFP Soundwave was intentionally designed to be more alien and freaky looking compared to everyone else I figured well hey. If Soundwave ain’t even normal among Cybertronian standards why should he be normal among human standards? Make him a humanoid 🫵 I haven’t yet fleshed out what he’d look like without the hat tbh so the ears? Might not stay idk. But Ravage and the birds all still love their boy even if he’s a cryptid and Frenzy and Rumble think he’s so cool instead of being unnerved 😌

i am genuinely tweaking

don't be blue, he's here for you

HE is the precious precious bot that’s been loved by all.

hyperfixation please stay with me long enough to complete the project. hyperfixation do not fade. hyperfixation finish what you started for the love of god

Batwave concept 🤔… except also bugwave…. I wanna implement both of those thangs (because of how the poll went). I couldn’t figure how his face would look so I’ve come to the conclusion that his visor(?) Is his face 😌 (tho there’s a chance I might change it to a human head,, not sure yet) it’s just that he mimics a human by tucking his head in a certain way that’s convincing enough, trust.. as for the bug stuff? It’s more subtle I’d say, sure the exoskeleton is a clearer thing (yes that technically means he’s shirtless in this one, boy cover up!!!) but there are biological things happening that I don’t feel like explaining yet 😌 just know I spent a whole night researching certain bugs. For his bat side I mostly referenced fruit/flying fox bats cuz their slim faces worked best with him

I felt like there wasn’t enough obviously-bug stuff going on so I kinda wanted to give him two pairs of wings like bugs do, but I’m not sure yet if they Are bat wings or if they’re like bug wings that mimic bat wings 🤔 which would be preferred??? Usually though, in this au thing he’d have them covered/hidden, kinda like how mantids or beetles would have their wings flush to the body and typically seem hidden. Tho a part of me still wants to give him insect wings cuz it matches his usual streamlined body yknow?

I’ve been drawing my Human Soundwave always covering his neck because I always imagined it to be how he’d hide his non-humanness 🤔 not sure how tall he is yet tho. Likely very tall tbh, maybe his visor thing is the equivalent of a bug face (exoskeleton) ,,, yet is shaped like a bat’s head. If that makes sense

Bonus the line art just cuz I like how it is… since bugs are like the top dogs in mimicry I like to imagine Soundwave going in on that 😌 similar to how many people like to think Prime Soundwave looks like a sparkeater! Soundwave here? Mostly not human. But pretends to be and is good at it

Still very funny to me that Decepticon alt modes can just be like... Guns and Cassette players lol

Of course they gave him cvnty heels
