We've got a pair of sparks cloned from Optimus and Galvatron, with one receiving a bit more of Optimus and the other receiving a bit more of Galvatron, but both (for some reason) are evil. The more Galvatron-like spark then got put in a duplicate of Prime's body, and became "Negatron". The more Optimus-like spark was put in a duplicate of Galvatron's body and became....


Optimus Crime.

Those are awesome, where did you get those?


*SIDE NOTE*: I'm looking for a good profile pic of a train transformer. But not the bullet train brothers. Can anyone help?

Since I reformatted my last three vehicle TF's into animals, I doodled up what Stormflash might look like in his fluffy beastie body:

Image

Yeah, looks like a cheap ripoff of Silverbolt but he's supposed to be a Hippogryph, of all things. I am thinking about a kitbash, but coming by the stuff I'd need to chop up is a little tough (well, not the horse parts. I got plenty o' plastic horses for the back legs/ tail). If anyone has any plastic eagles/birds of prey that they wouldn't mind me chopping the head off of, though, lemme know. >>;

And sorry for the page stretch. Mybad. :oops:

Windy, that's far superior to anything I can draw. Looks just fine to me :D

Edit: I'd rather edit than double post on this thread.

My finished team, from left to right

Giga-Bite, Chillwind, Flamedance, Stompage, Deepdive, Stormstriker, Kaijubot, Nightfight, Scrapheaper, Dreadwave, Bladewing and Bigfoot.

Cool group pic thar Kaijubot! I never got into the spritemaking, TBH. I tried it for a while but it just was too tedious... and given my attention span, hehe...

Anyway, I have a filler TF on my team right now named Dialga (no bio or nothin', he's just there to occupy space), named after... yeah, you guessed it: one of the new legendary dragon Pokemon that recently debuted with the Nintendo DS games, Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl. Me actually drawing this TF was kickstarted by a guy that's doing a Beast Wars/PK crossover and needed original characters as fodder...

His altmode (official Pokemon art by Ken Sugmori, of course) for those who don't know what he's supposed to be:
Image
And my Pic:
Image

You can tell it was inspired loosely by BW Neo Longrack (beast head on forearm, legs folded behind upper back, etc) ... I know, I've done the unthinkable by merging TF's and Pokemon together... but hey, it isn't like I've done this twice before or anything. :P

Looks good, Windy. Given the number of pokemon alts in the fan-made alts thread I'm sometimes surprised we don't see more like this.

I actually need to do a new groupshot of my team since I keep tinkering and improving them (or in Scrapheaper's case make a wholely new sprite).

Thanks for posting this - I was wondering where everyone got these. The rest of the pics everyone are doing are nice!

To Windy: Stormflash has promise, and I actually think the overt Silverbolt touches were a nice choice, but where's the lower body?! :P Must see more of the structure! And congratulations, you did make a pokemon into a badass.

To Digibashers: I'm working on reformatting my team to all beastmodes for v2. My main character will no longer be a Helo then, so neither recolor I made (below), or the one Whisper made (my desktop wallpaper for like 6 months there), will work anymore. Caelus is going to be a Transmetal Phoenix instead, so anyone want to take a crack at recoloring G1 or Energon Divebomb in the appropriate pyrophilic colors?

Thanks!

I'd try IDW's Hearts of Steel for a couple of train transformer. There's Optimus on the main site, uncolored.

Simply awesome Windy. You certainly have a talent for making Beast Mode Transformers. not that it was unestablished at this point but you turning a Pokemon like that into a TF and having him have such a well designed robot mode is true skill.
