Inspirations
I did not draw alt modes because I was inspired directly by real-life vehicles, but
my inspirations are below! Not exact, because paint jobs are slightly different, but
it should give you a general idea about their looks.

“Transformers Animated is a television-supported Transformers franchise that began in December 2007. This iteration of the Transformers brand brings a highly dynamic and stylized look to the toys and fiction.”

-TFwiki

The upcoming model sheets are my interpretation of existing 1984/1985/1986 characters rendered in the Tranformers Animated Style. These are not official designs, nor do they represent characters that exist in the aforementioned cartoon.
