step 2 of this will be combining with transfans members data list so you can chat online via 3d virtual Ark...

its not as complex as it sounds. - but it will rock

Is there an established floorplan to follow, or are you basing it on visual snippits from the cartoon/comic?

Can I be Citybot's arse? Beside already being the Transfans one?

I did a couple of pages of biro scribble of a submarine TF - I was going to make him a spaceship too so I could name him 'Subspace'. Firstly, TF subs are bloody hard to do (subs are dull-looking and robot ones will end up looking like a Robo-Machine), and secondly, the scanned pics didn't pick up much of the biro scribble, so they're useless to show here. I have a couple of good transform part designs, so I may build parts of him in card and post photos. If I get the time to build any of it.

I started on a Magneto meets Gundam head design then remembered it's a head master D-OH!!!

Back to the drawing board.

and if we're picking I wanna be a tank, an urban camo tank.

OK, I've started a really bog standard version of a city bot in an artilery mode. It can be going one of 2 ways at the moment, either a tank mode or a sky base kind of affair. I could use both and as a result Triple changing gets included too.

So far I've worked out the basics of the upper body and this includes some major fire power.

I'm having problems with getting a head done, having never owned a Headmaster I have know Idea on the jointed areas, etc. Infact anything master related isn't really my fortay (Spelling??)

If this finishes up as it is in my head, it could turn out very nice indeed.

I won't post a pic yet as it is far too rough and my scanner drivers have gone walkabout.

So, so far it's a monstrous triple-changing omnimaster of a duocon?

Sound like it. At least someone is knocking one out (so to speak).

Infact I'm going to get me sketch pad out right now

Ooer.

Good work fella. You're keepin' things alive on this one. Back you up artworkwise soon - I promise.

OK it's slow going, I know, I know but I'm lazy.

But I got my but into gear and got back onto this. I just need to work on some detail, then a head (Most important indeed), then inking and yaddah, yaddah, yaddah ....................Pred's?!

I like this idea.

I like this idea.

Or, I'd imagine that I would, if I only had a brain...

Cool. Seems more sci-fi cybertronian in design then the other city-bots. And I do detect a slight flair of teh anime.

Could use a bit more detailing on the body, after the basic design has been done. In order to get that moving city feel to him.

I need a chest piece, those slots are for his arms to fold up on to the chest.

I want a Chest piece that can move though/has a purpose. Not like Defensor's but not long and thin like Bruticus'. Something like a B2 Bomber/Stealth Bomber shape. It needs to move for the arms, They'll form the Tank modes turrett and barrells (Two on each arm)

The waist spins 180 degrees and the legs fold under it's back (there are tracks on the back of the legs)
