Omega surely reigns "supreme", by the looks of it.

To be precise, it has three eyes in the head, the big one, and two that are smaller at the sides. And yes, it's alternate mode is a chimera, well, a sort of zombie - cybernetic chimera, the center head is a lion skull, the other ones are from a snake and a hawk, I've seen some videogames where chimeras had five heads: Lion, dragon, eagle, goat and snake xDDD

You must show us the beast/bot leg transformation.. looks interesting.

.billy

Hehe, thanks, Billy, for the way the transformation goes, the chimera's arms drop like Onyx Griffin's, just that here they bend in the elbow (That means that the beast's upper-arm becomes the lower leg in the robot) and the beast claws end in the robot knees (the beast shoulders); the snake and hawk heads move at the sides of the torso and end making the robot arms; the beast butt moves like Onyx Griffin, it ends in the back of the robot with the legs grabbing the back part of the robot torso (Watch carefully and you'll see the claws); and the lion head moves like Cybertron Leobreaker, the robots head pops from there; the robot sword is made from the beast's tail. (I wrote all this stuff because I'm too lazy now to draw it xD)

Nop, it's not Omega Supreme

Ladies and gentlemen, we got a winner! xDDDD, in fact, this zombie - looking robot is my design of the powerful killing machine known as Predaking, a friend of mine suggested me to use a Chimera as beast mode in order to keep the lion's head in the chest (The detail I was talking about when I posted the picture), it has as well the bird wings in the back, and the sword, little resemblances to its G1 "ancestor", the beast mode'll be posted, once I draw it xDD

Ah.. missed the animalistic details to get this one.

Still a good idea, though.

Mon Feb 20, 2006 3:01 pm

destructor- very imaginative design yuo got there, can't wait to see a finished one soon

A chimera is technically any combination of animals most common ones involve lions and eagles.

the chimera with the goat , lion and snakes head was specific to one story but has made it into most dictionaries as the mainstay biblical character

Heres some ideas i did at work today.

Royal Guard
1

2- i need this just for fun. i don't think im gonna give them alt modes.

3 this is the idea im going with and pic 1.

"Knights Templar"

wow, I really like all of those. One thing though, the fem bot's eye is much too high on her head. things tend to get distorted when I only draw half a bot like that too. If you mirror the image you may see it easier.

Tue Feb 21, 2006 1:50 pm

did some colors on fenrir to see what he'd look like closer to energon starscreams colorscheme, little darker all around.

not to sure maybe a light blue would give it credit more so
so that the outlining can be shown ,

just a point of view

Wed Feb 22, 2006 9:45 pm

Here's another new idea.

The Sentry

Wed Feb 22, 2006 10:32 pm

Wed Feb 22, 2006 10:49 pm

Thu Feb 23, 2006 3:25 am

Really great designs there, shin!

It's got me real interested to read your interpretation of Myth Wars.

I like the illustrations, but how are you explaining the no alt. mode thing?

Well not once in Beast Wars does it ever say they had alt modes

None of the characters ever said they could transform before they came to earth. So whos to say they could. I know the was a book that said primal was a truck but i don't buy it. I think that was just made up for the book. Plus they had no reason to transform, they weren't at war, they didn't need disguise and they they were living the high life on cybertron. So they really had ne reason to transform. (Plus as much as rattrap and chettor wined, you think they would have said something about losing their "old" forms when the came to earth) So that kinda makes me believe they might not had alt modes. But i've come up with a way to make everyone happy. Im gonna have it where on cybertron you need a " permit" to be able to transform(kinda like a driving permit) So only certain bots can transform. Like high up maximals/predicons and some military units. And i was thinking that the predicons would smuggle in weapons and transforming parts. So they are "upgrading" without the maximals knowledge, getting back to there decepticon roots so to speak.Building an "transforming" army to take back cybertron.

w i p ( my version updated with head visor )

Wed Mar 08, 2006 5:38 pm

Not bad Evilratbat, whats the stuff around the head?

Wed Mar 08, 2006 5:43 pm

Here's a big idea i came up with. I don't want to say anything about it, cause im wanting to not give away the whole comic just yet

But it's still in the WIP stage and i also added some color to the second pic so you can tell where the armor goes.

Wing Convoy in God Magnus Armor (WIP)

With color

Wed Mar 08, 2006 7:09 pm

evilratbat's Blackarachnia is so sexy *?*

Dark_Fool's sig is so sexy *?*

Wing Convoy is so... Wait a sec, he's a guy xDDD, I guess it's the first time I see a Maximal wearing that sort of armor.

And from me, here comes a small part of the next design I'm gonna put to the character group, this time is another evil predacon:

It's just a sketch so I won't reveal the rest of her (Yes, it's another girl, for those who didn't notice it by now)

Wed Mar 08, 2006 7:54 pm

something about the way his left sholder matches up looks a little off. Maybe its because the arm is in perspective where as the sholder joint looks like its more straight up and down, and also further out from the body than where the bicep is leading. Other than that tiny detail I really like where this is going. I'd love to see more red in there though, like on the chest and such. So question, is he a Prime in Magnus armor, or is he a myth wars version of Ultra Magnus? Personally I think I like the idea of Prime in Magnus's armor more. Like Magnus died and left it to Prime. Or just couldn't handle the life of a soldier and quit to live a life away from war (like bumblebee was going to in Dreamwave Vol.3). Nah, Death is better.

Wed Mar 08, 2006 9:34 pm

Jimsloth- Yeah the shoulder is alittle off i just didn't want to fix it, cause i would have to go back and change to much.Im lazy

And there is more red, his chest is red, i just wanted to color the parts that was the armor only. And hes Wing Convoy in armor. So its not Ultra Magnus. Im gonna have Armor in the comic. Think of Ronin Warrios or somthing along those lines. "Armors" will replace the transmetal idea.
