Original figure rigging and gesture by Nick Roche from How to Draw Transformers Prime.
Geometric shapes and Knock Out added by Ya (tumblr Obfuscobble).
No copyright infringement intended. I just thought my followers would enjoy seeing an extra step in the drawing process, especially once they get their hands on a copy of this book! In the book, we go straight from step 1 figure rigging and gesture to step 2 basic contour. The book calls it basic shapes, but it more often presents a sketchy basic contour rather than the geometric shapes under the contour. So I decided to add the geometric shapes.

HA! There you go kids: passive internet audience my ass. Seriously though, I’m going to find out why there are no Knockout pages. And.. you know… Take action and shit.
I think there weren’t any Knockout pages because this was done by the IDW art team. IDW’s Prime comics are prequels to Prime and Knockout doesn’t appear in them, but Cliff et al do. That explains the lineup : only bots that appear in the comics, and thus only bots that the artist knows how to draw. Picking apart Knockout for his basic geometric shapes was pretty fun anyway!
