Just a random sketchy drawing of a movie-style 'bot... no plans for who he is or what his role is in the group. He generally transforms into a sports car of some kind... but that's all I've thought about.
Any ideas on what I can do with him?

Wow, I kinda dig this. I love what you did with the doors and the little bumper boobs.
I see Sideburn in the chest and proportions, and I could definitely see that paint scheme applied here; flames would look especially nice on those doors. I don't see movie-style, though - he's more of the blocky-with-movie-elements style of Don's designs for the new TF ongoing. In any case, his head is a bit large - not in a bad way, but in a way that makes me think he must be a rather tiny little guy, probably a bit excitable. I like that you didn't take that too far, though - mainly, that I'm noticing, the little bit of beef to his upper arms. His Drift-esque samurai pants and the fins on his legs are really neat, nice angles, and they do give him a bit of professional panache - I mean, I wouldn't see him as like an annoying kid type.

Added a shaded version to dA, to help point out the surfaces and such...
So who is this? Windcharger? Tap-Out?

Smexy values.
Still Sideburn. = )
(I mean, I could see Alternators Windcharger, but he's really Overdrive, if by accident.)

Tee-hee. Nice! Thanks! = )
In any paint scheme, I really dig this design. It's very ... I don't know, energetic.
