The main design philosophy I had with this one is movie Matrix of Leadership. Since the Matrix and Unicron share a link (being the only thing that can defeat him) I wanted them to look similar.
And that ended up working well for scale purposes. He's actually very mechanical when you get close enough, but on a backed-out planetary scale he appears somewhat organic.
As for design elements, I wanted him to feel very alien. Very old. Kind of bug-like. I felt a planet-sized bipedal robot just wouldn't work in the movie universe. He's got a few legs that will "accordian" out and kind of wrap around planets as much as possible.
He's got a couple elements designed to reference his G1 look, including the "mouth", the horns and wings.
That is so intricate! I like it a lot. I could just see that nasty bad ass curling those claws and legs around a planet (like Earth maybe?) and sucking it up like a big jello dessert. Great vision!
Oh! I saw this over on TFW2005! It is outstanding. You did such an amazing job on it. I love how you made it look connected to the Matrix. ]X3

Pretty fitting for the movie verse, with the whole series taking place on earth it kinda makes sense for unicron to be like this, he seems like he'll benefit from a more organic planet than a cybernetic one. Twas awesome on tfw2005, tis awesome here man, nice job.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
