Speaking of Sixshot, I spent my down time while at work last night getting myself acquainted with this Myth Wars project, and in doing so I cranked out the following while getting my toes wet:



I based his alternate mode off of the Scylla... and here's how I see it. The 'female' that can been seen in a plethora of reference images across the intarwebs riding atop the various beasts that make up this creature detaches in his transformed state to become a reconnaissance drone or a Pretender of sorts, dispatched into the field to survey and gain information against enemy forces and targets - and even assimilate itself into the local population where warranted by going undercover. I always thought of Sixshot to be a calculated killer, extremely efficient at his function; employing a drone to conduct preemptive surveillance made sense.

What do you guys think?

I really wanted to use a six-headed Hydra for Sixshot, but I didn't want to step on anyone's toes being that we have a Megatron with that as a beast mode already... but it just seems like a no-brainer for someone who's whole gimmick revolves around the number 6, heh.

Where's the wolfish Scylla from? I thought Scylla and Charybdis were a rocky cliff and a whirlpool?

Scylla is not a rocky cliff. Scylla lived on a rocky cliff, next to the whirlpool, Charbydis. Just do a Google search, my man.

huh, how about that. I remember it from the Odyssey now. Interestingly enough, there's another Scylla who was turned into a bird. (Edith Hamilton's Mythology: Part 6)

Finally updated my previous post.

I had no idea my Myth Wars was still going. Maybe i should bring out some new ideas?

Please do! I love the idea and would like to continue contributing.

Some time ago I was sketching some sort of updated design of one pred I posted here:



And she ended looking like this:



I was influenced a bit by the movie aesthetics when drawing her.

I like version 1 on Blacharachnia; changing face feature is great...

makes me wonder what happened to this thread

I think tfprime beast hunters may have stolen someone's idea. Turns out that regular non transforming autobots had to fight monstrous predacons on ancient earth. Also does anyone know why they need to scan something before they can transform AT ALL? (even though some characters actually broke that rule)
