as a chinese american transformers fan, you have no idea how happy i am to see soundwave and the twins be chinese like lets goooooo
YEAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
its very precious to me as well π i donβt think it was even a conscious decision i blacked out and the wizard said βproject onto fictional charactersβ and i was like ok wizard. the wizard said βproject the goofy position of living in a cultural diaspora on as many of your characters and ocs as narratively possibleβ i was like ok sounds good wizard
hereβs a fun fact! allll the way back in part 3, what soundwave was ladling into the bowl was supposed to be η²₯οΌspecifically, ηΊ’θ±η²₯οΌred bean porridge?? basically porridge. I was having a horrible time looking at my references going βim not rendering all these blucking beansβ so i got really lazy and it kinda just ended up looking like a horrible bowl of oil. i still regret how i rendered this panel. what the hell were you cooking here soundwave. i think it was widely acclaimed to be chicken soup and at this point who knows what this biohazard is
granted, soundwaveβs true appearance is entirely up to interpretation! I drew their domestic life based on what im most familiar with, but I went into his character with no plans for him to have an origin. Is he even human? Who knows. It is, and will be for the whole series, up to the reader to decide :D
