Jetfire Fan Concept Art

From "Jolin" and "Jester" over at the Don Murphy forums comes the below Transfan made concept art of Jetfire based off the SR-71 Blackbird alt mode. It’s a pretty damn good design that gives off the impression of power. Click their names for more art and other things. Thanks to Rich for the info.

  1. OK, I hope he starts out as a Decepticon and then switches to the Autobot side.

  4. Ahhhhhh........so....beautiful. I think I'm in love with it. Oh man I hope either this or something close to it is the actual design.

  5. I think Jetfire is "The Fallen". Here's my theory.

    Decepticon Jetfire for some reason had come to Earth but deactivated some how. Thus, we humans were able to capture him and put him on display in the Smithsonian. Maybe the story line of TF2 will be Jetfire transition from Decep to Auto.

    Everybody is so caught up with the possiblity of Constructicons that they aren't paying much attention to this potentially huge character. I have little doubt Jetfire will be the primary focus of TF2.

    This concept art looks pretty good by the way. I'm sure the actual rendering will be similar.

  6. "fan made" concept art, uh?
    And who is "the fan"... an ILM or Dreamworks employee, perhaps ?
    No way an amateur could come up with a design like that. It's obviously made by a professional working in the field...

  7. To the poster above me, have you never been to imdb? Right after the first movie came out, the boards were flooded with people posting their own movie designs for G1 Transformers and almost all of them looked professionally done like this one.

    There's a MORE POLITE way of letting the site's blogger know about that. You douche.

    BTW, kickass artwork

  9. I think he will be mainly Black with red here and there. But other than that very accurate. I would like to see him and starscream duke out in the air and ground. I mean that would be sweet

  10. To those who collect ''toys''. GET A FREAKING LIFE!!! It's meant for small kids, not your grown-up asses. geez.

  11. So if "toys" are supposed to be collected by small kids, how come they are designed, marketed, and sold by adults?

    Some of us are already married, own a house, car, and have a job with hobbies. I'm not planning to grow up like some sad banker in Mary Poppins. So what's wrong with a little collection of kids toys?

    Man, I know it's fan-made art, but it's really cool nonetheless.

  12. Dude, just because you collect toys doesn't mean you have to be a kid. If you have a deep fan-base or hobby in something when you WERE a kid and still hold some ties to it (definitely Trans fans) your probably more than likely to collect a few toys. IMO

  13. As Cartman would say, "Sweeeet..."

  14. ''So if "toys" are supposed to be collected by small kids, how come they are designed, marketed, and sold by adults?''

    Yeah, lets order kids to manage and run a company that designs toys. What, are you stupid?
    On a side note, I bet most of those toys are made by chinese kids in sweatshops. Enjoy.

  15. Well, gee, thanks for your opinion.

  16. This is an AWESOME fan drawing. Jolin and Jester JJZ are amazing artists - they aren't employees of ILM or Hasbro, but in my opinion they'd certainly qualify. I also draw my own Transformers characters (more of the G-1 style).

    To the guy that has problems with adults collecting TF figures: let me make this clear - I collect them, NOT PLAY WITH THEM. To me, collecting Transformer figures is just like a fine arts lover collecting recordings of classical music pieces or the works of Picasso, Dali and other painters, or a car enthusiast collecting and or customizing classic cars. In other words, it is a HOBBY, and being that I am a new Father with a Beautiful soon to be 2-years old Daughter, and a Beautiful Wife, I collect WITHIN REASON, as I have another mouth to feed, bills to pay just like everyone else that's over the age of 17, and last, but not least, a life.

  17. its bad ass that transformers 2 has 20 robots in it but the one thing that i find unsettling is that Jetfire is actually an AUTOBOT from the start. It would be nice to see Jetfire and Optimus Prime combine to form a unbeatable bot. Michael Bay if you read this make it happen!!

  18. Jetfire shouldn't be a Decepticons he should be an AUTOBOT.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Eep is that the supposed design for Jetfire!! He looks totally rockin!!! He has a very keen face. And looks positively badass. He's one of my favorite transformers second only to Bumblebee.

    Ah and person above me Jetfire started out a Decepticon then went on to become a autobot and I think or at least I hope they have him make the transition in the movie. They better not make him completely a decepticon but I don't think they will. I do think it's awesome how he comes from both sides and in the end went to right side.

    This makes me so excited I love what they did with his design even if this isn't the finished one or just one some one made it's coming along nicely I think. Either way I think he will look great in the end.

    Ah and yes I'm an adult and I COLLECT transformers I don't play with them they just stay on a shelf in my room. Actually in my humble opinion they are worth buying. Ah and FYI they are ACTION FIGURES. And yes I agree with the others it's a hobby. So quit judging people.

  20. they should switch the story so that he's an autobot that becomes a decepticon. thats some real anakin skywalker shit right there

  21. wow. i love how this went from Jetfire is awsome to toys are for all.

    and so what if they want the figures. w/o the origanal toys what show/movie would there be?

    ReplyDelete

  24. i peed in te slurpee machine!!!!

  25. Okay, for one: Jetfire was an autobot from the start, crash landed on Earth, thawed by the decepticreeps and was told the Autobots was evil, He tried to fight, but realized the confusion, and sent Megatron back to Cybertron, but destroyed himself in the process. For two: Kick ass artwork. For three: Collecting toys is a hobby for people of all ages. Understand if you don't know the history of TF, then watch the G1 series from the beginning.

  26. ok for the guy that said jetfire was an autobot to start, if u remember he was neither he and starscream were fellow scientists who were exploring earth when jetfire froze up and crashed and this was before the great war broke out so actually none of the bots were auto or decep yet but any way this artists rendition of jetfire is totally kickasss pro or not

  27. I think this guy that is making all the fan art is one of the guys they fired from the first movie.
    Now he is putting out his work to say
    “Hey, This is what the movie could have looked like ….
    My biggest problem with the movie is the designs of most of the transformers
    The worst one is Iron-hide.
    Can you really tell what is going on from torso to bottom???
    In the action stills, I cannot tell the difference between his crotch and his leg joint, and I’m talking a STILL RENDER!!! No motion blur!!!!
    Example:

    I thought the best designs was Jazz, but fuck he’s dead …

  29. wat program do they use for this, its awsum!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Why did they have to screw up Jetfire like that!
    Wait *IDEA!*

    Jetfire dies in the second one correct? So why not have him be rebuilt in the third movie with this new "younger", more manuverable look, and teach starscream a lesson!
