I am now the proud owner of a charcoal grey 2003 Convertible Ford Mustang. Even though I'm a Camaro girl and have wanted one for years now, I am unnecessarily proud of him and love him with every piece of my spark. As per tradition, I've given him a name and already deemed him as "my Autobot", earning plenty of laughs from friends and family alike.

I myself have gone through two or three design drafts, but haven't been happy with any of them. So what better way to get more ideas than to open up a competition?

The Car:


  20141015 164443 by SpartanAmethyst

Year:
2003

Make & model:
Ford Mustang (convertible)

Color:
Charcoal Grey; black interior

----------

The Character:


Name:
Breakshift

Gender:
Mech

Age:
Close to Bayformer Ironhide's.

Faction:
Autobot

Class:
Warrior.
Loves close combat.

Personality:
Easily irritable and always acts grumpy.
Constantly grumbles and groans about everything.
Most common sound is an irritated huff or snort.
- Very blunt and brash. Doesn't care if he offends you.
Militaristic & focused. Will circumvent protocol
to get the job/missions done.
Hates to be held back; likes to be the first in a fight.
Likewise, he hates to sit still for too long.
Overprotective of his human girl; NEST partner was killed in action,
now is paired with a Civilian girl to keep his head level.
Keeps a strong, uncaring front in front of everyone, including his fellow Autobots.
Only his human girl sees any other emotion besides anger or irritation. He's
always very soft and careful around her, rarely speaking above a murmur.
Suffers from the Transformer version of PTSD. His processor has intense and
painful flashbacks of Cybertron, often disorienting him temporarily.

General Appearance:
- Short, only slightly smaller than Bumblebee.
- Covered in various scratches and scars; shows a lot of battle wear.
Most noticeable scars are a collapsed portion of his hood and a dent
right above his right rear tire. Paint is slightly deteriorated in a
few areas. (Zoom in on the image & you can see the hood damage!)

----------

What I'd like to see:

- Original, unique designs. I'd like him to stand out while still being
easily recognizable as an Autobot.
-All battle scars must be visible, and recognizable as a Mustang.
- Must be a Bayformer! I'm not requiring you to draw him that
intricately, but it MUST be in that universe's general style.
- I'm really leaving him open to interpretation, because you're
more likely to be creative when you're not restricted.
Have an idea? Go for it!

Prize:

1000 :points:
My love and adoration.
Proper credit for your design, of course!

If I get enough entries, there may be prizes for runner ups.
But for the moment, there will only be one winner.

----------

End Date:


January 1st, 2015.

Want to feature this competition to spread the word?
Anyone who features this competition will be entered into a raffle to win a free piece of art from me. Anything you want; there will be one winner for every 10 features. The raffle will be done on the end date.

Good luck!
