First post here! Can't believe it considering I've been visiting the website for about 6 years. Below is one of my first customs so be gentle...

So here's my take on the Dinobots if Wheeljack gave them more earth-like vehicle modes. I wanted to take memorable design cues from the 80's versions and translate them into their botmodes so you may notice similarities like Snarl having his tail split behind him, Slag having his head housed in the Dino-mouth, colour placement etc.

Hope you like!

Slag

Sludge (needs a bit of work)

Snarl

Swoop

Botmode Group "Studio"

Botmode Group "Ark"

Before they were Dinobots... (thanks to Seibertron)

Make that two comments. I think these are awesome! I really like the fact that the difference in sizes help the characters too.

IMO Grimlock is the pick of the bunch. :APPLAUSE:

Man we should have collaborated! Great work! Have to say, I love the choice for Grimlock, has a menacing War Within vibe. Nice choices, good execution. It's amazing how we both put together a set of Earth mode Dino's at almost the exact same time. All round fantastic job friend. :APPLAUSE:
