Description
Well here's something new. And as people who keep bugging me know, overdue. I haven't really cared to set aside time for these two forms, either because the series has been kinda lackluster and/or I've been focusing on other rider series.Type Formula is the blue form on the far left. Formula is the mid-season upgrade for Drive, based on a formula race car. As such, it has a bunch of features of those types of cars...which makes it extremely bulky and ugly. Adding to that are the stickers for the various shift cars plastered all over. Sure, it's a neat idea, but I think it's just terrible looking. Type Formula looks so much better without them. The stickers are the best I could do at this scale, and it was a pain to get them to look as decent as they do.
Type Tridoron is in the center and right. Type Tridoron is the ultimate form for Kamen Rider Drive, with Shinnosuke in control in the center (with yellow eyes) and Krim Steinbelt/Belt-San/Mr. Belt in control on the right (with the ringed eyes). I've got mixed feelings about Type Tridoron: I feel like it's a cool idea for it to be based on Drive's car but I really don't like the massive amount of asymmetry going on. Ultimate forms have been mostly symmetrical save for smaller details/insignias, but Tridoron here is just off. I also really don't like the yellow eyes, it's weird that they designers decided only the final form would have different colored eyes and keep the rest of the forms' eyes white. And the wheeled feet are hella weird.
Off to the side s the Trailer Cannon/Hou weapon used in both forms. I'll be making the few tire changes for each form in the next couple of days so stay tuned for those.
Everything here is my hard work. Please don't touch anything without permission. Thanks.

Type Formula is easily the worst design in the show. The thing with the shift car names all over it was a decent idea, but the form overall was just not executed very well. Especially the elbow tires, those just looks so freaking impractical. Though to be fair, the helmet is decent. As for Type Tridoron...yeah, I've got mixed feelings for it too. Though I'm leaning closer to actually liking it; as it is a massive step up from Formula. My only real issue with the form is the tire placement, I kind of wish it was in the same place as Type Speed's Tire, just to give it a "Powered Up Type Speed Look" which I feel this form is going for. But you did a great job at representing all the forms here, all in all nice work.

Type Formula seems to be based almost entirely on the style of late F1 racer Ayrton Senna , as seen here. That's not to say it's not a god-awful design; just some potential origins behind it.

I don't know what it is, but all of the Rider designs in Drive appeal to me in a big way, and these two are no exception. In my opinion, Type Technic is the weakest, but I still like it. That being said, I can easily understand why someone wouldn't like these two, especially Formula. Also, I never noticed the thing with the eye color until you pointed it out. I agree that it's annoying. But that's just me.
Great work, as always.

Type Tridoron no longer uses "Tire changes" (Tire koukan), they instead use "Tire blends" (Tire kakimazeru) with 3 thematic Shift Cars (i.e. Justice Hunter is a police car, and police cars have sirens. And to keep the siren theme, its two partners would be Mad Doctor, an ambulance, and Fire Braver, a fire engine. Mix the 3 tires together and you get People Saver, a reference to how the Shift Cars are based on rescue vehicles due to the sirens allowing civilians to know they will be rescued when in danger).

In case you didn't know, Gaim's Kiwami Arms is asymmetrical due to the emblem crown being part of the suit.

I am well aware, hence the wording "mostly symmetrical save for smaller details/insignias".

It's still really not that great. New forms/riders =/= decent show.

Well, we don't have to have the same opinion on the show, right?

But if the majority of the show's community says it's good, then so should we. Opposing opinions would only result in a conflict that would not end until it is resolved.

So you're saying people should abandon their opinions and conform to a perceived majority? No, that's ridiculous. I'll stick to my opinions and you to yours.
