Description
[freetime work]I know you see these kind of mecha-designs every day,
but i swear by god i did not want to copy anything (i hate it)
It just happend i sketched something random and liked this concept, so i painted it in photoshop.
It`s a 'can' robot which, in compact mode, can be used as a laserline trap or enemy detection and is almost indestructible. The upper body rotates freely in every mode. In the open mode the can transforms into a real robot, that can move on four small tires (hidden behind massive armor plates) and well, see for yourself

Well, the idea of a transformer in general is not very unique anymore (since the movies or star wars) Even the turrets in Portal 1/2 (which are infamous) are in some way transformers. And i believe that anywhere on this planet, all possible forms for transformers already exist, cube, can, ball, pyramid, .... i just wanted to make my own styling, because i like the idea

Thank you! I admit i did`nt put too much thought into functunality, i wanted to make it look cool and just styled here.
Also let`s be honest, most of the mechs in star wars are useless as hell, they only look good
...and if i made this more realistic, we would have a boring moving can ^^
But seeing the fact you put some thoughts in it says you were interested in this concept, that makes me happy
