If They Could Transform - Batmobiles



I knew I wanted to do a Batmobile, but it was a toss up between the original TV series one, or the Tim Burton 89 movie.   I couldn't decide... so I did both!

If They Could Transform - Bigfoot


There are two things I remember about visiting my Great Grandma… watching Wrestling & Monster trucks.  I never really got into either of them… (you know, sweaty muscle men fighting each other, or loud giant trucks rolling over crushed cars)… but I just liked hanging out with her.  If I had to pick one though, it would be the monster trucks.   Best, Great Grandma, ever.

If They Could Transform - Partridge


Never watched this show, even once.  I suppose because by the time I was a little kid, it was already into re-runs.  It was only on tv from 70-74 I believe, so most of you younger folks probably don’t even know what this show is!  (and to be honest, I don’t really know either, I just know it was about a musically talented family who had a bus.)

If They Could Transform - Party Wagon


I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone that didn’t like Teenage Mutant Ninja Tortoises, as an adult or a kid.
It was (and still is) in my top 10 favourite comics/cartoons.

I also loved the original movie… (not #2 or 3 though).  Recent 3d animated tv shows just don’t cut it either for me.
The new Michael Bay movie has me wondering though… I don’t like what he did with Transformers, so here’s hoping.

If They Could Transform - Gran Torino


I’ll be honest, I never watched Starsky and Hutch as a kid.  I’m not really sure why either.  Was it even a kids show?  I don’t think so.
Perhaps I didn’t have interest because with Knight Rider, Dukes of Hazard, and Magnum P.I., I already had my fill of shows with cool cars.
Either that, or its just because my parents never watched it.  Did you watch it?  Was it any good?

If They Could Transform - Mach V


I have to admit that I was never really into Speed Racer as a kid, but I always loved the car!
Also, another recent movie remake that I never saw.
(UPDATE:  I watched the remake the other day... wish I didn't.)

If They Could Transform - Pacer


My family actually had a Gremlin when I was a boy.  I don`t remember much about it, just that we had one.  And it was blue too! …no flames though.  :(
Party on Wayne!  Party on Garth!

If They Could Transform - Mystery Machine


I loved Scooby Doo when I was a kid, but even back then before becoming an animator, I noticed all the reused animation in each episode… much like every other 80s cartoon I watched and loved!
Never saw the live action movies though… ugh.

If They Could Transform - KITT


I loved this show as a kid, and not just because it had the Hoff.  Kitt was awesome.
Even as a kid though, I always knew that Kitt was smarter than Micheal.

If They Could Transform - Herbie


This was one of those shows that was occasionally on at my house, but I never really watched or got into.  I mean, come on… as a little kid, deciding between Knight Rider and Herbie the Love Bug was a no brainer.

If They Could Transform - Vandura


I loved this show as a kid, although, now that I think about it, I never really watched it that much.
I think I just like the explosions and Mr. T.   ...Never saw the reboot movie though.

If They Could Transform - Delorean


I recently saw that they're trying to come out with the "self-tying" high top shoes that Fox wore in part 2.  As cool as that is... I want a hover board!  Am I right?!  When are they gonna make one of those!?!

If They Could Transform - Ecto-1


Day two of the new series.  I figured this one would be fitting to do after the passing of great Harold Ramis.
The sound of this cars siren will forever be embedded in my mind!

If They Could Transform - General Lee


My next little series that I've decided to do for fun... Taking iconic vehicles from old shows and creating a robot form for them.
(Its a good excuse to draw robots while practicing drawing vehicles!)

This first one, from Dukes of Hazard, was one of my favourite shows as a kid.  I even had an awesome General Lee peddle car.
...man, I wish I still had that.  ...and could fit in it.

TUMBLR & FACEBOOK

Greetings Friends!!
Is it just me, or is Blogger starting to get used less and less these days by everyone?  Do you still use it?  Or do you just have other Blogs in your feed?  Either way, I'm not getting rid of this blog, but I want to invite all of you awesome peeps to:
a - FOLLOW ME ON TUMBLR
b - FOLLOW ME ON FACEBOOK
... if you're into that sort of thing... which it seems people are.
Also, if any of you know how to auto post something on multiple places (IE: onto Tumblr which auto posts onto Blogger) I would love to know how!

~ Rawls

...and, yesterdays Daily Doodle I didn't post yet.
