TFA Redesigns Part 2: ft Team Athenia, the "new" Protectobots and Rescue Force Sigma-17

Part 1

still annoyed that drew i drew team athenia is facing the wrong way

COMMISSIONS OPEN:

Random Lore Dump Ramblings Below the Cut:

Team Athenia is not disbanded, but they are stationed back on cybertron security while Rodimus recovers from the Cosmic Rust

Rodimus is a terrible patient and keeps trying to sneak out of the hospital and get back to work (not that he's very successful considering the damage hems undergone; there's been talk of a total reframe and that kind of scares of him)

Red Alert (as second command and technically now in-charge of the team) is VERY stressed out and struggling not to fall back into old habits and paranoia (it doesn't help that one of her conjuxes is MIA too)

Ironhide is NOT joining the Earth Team but he did visit there with Hot Shot checking a lead on an old bootcamp buddy, where he picked up his new alt mode

Brawn is... well if you ask him he says he's fine but he's as stressed as Red Alert about everything going on without a nice outlet of 'con bashing to let it out with

The Protectobots' were picked more off their frametypes then their skillsets; Sentinel got REALLY lucky there that these guys are all highly competent, quick learners

They were all required to get new paint jobs with a white base with single color accents, with the exception of First Aid (who already met the color requirements) and Hot Spot (who had the reverse- single color base with white accents)

First Aid is putting his 200% into Ultra Magnus' recovery because he does NOT want to be Sentinel's poster boy. These mechs are nice but First Aid is a doctor not some mascot. It's hard enough being taken seriously as is.

Streetwise was actually partners with Chase. In contrast to the latter's by the book attitude, he was more focused on working with people to keep them out of trouble.

Blades was another "expendable" "volunteer" for the Aerialbot project after getting bashed in treating a patient in field. (His previous frame being the same mold of Ironhide and Ratchet.) Unlike the Twins, he is not taking his forced frame change with much grace, a bit divided between fear of his new body/being forced to use it and fury for what was done to him...

Hot Spot, the unofficial "leader" of the protectobots, is trying to keep a cheerful outlook with the group of mech's he's been assigned. Honestly, he liked his previous job better, but this can't end up THAT bad, right?

Groove is the only one that signed up for the protectobots, even if he was technically trying to apply for a traveling permit to explore more organic planets with his buddy Boulder. He's testing the waters to see whether he's gonna stick around or not.

NGL, I don't really have too many ideas for the Rescuebots in TFA pre-Earth beyond "and they did their specific jobs very well" sort of thing

Chase wasn't very popular amongst his fellow cops because he was such a stickler about the rules and didn't hesitate to report any misconduct amongst his peers (taking bribes, initiating a search without a warrant, arresting without a warrant, etc.)

Heatwave and Hot Spot both trained under Inferno (Hot Spot may or may not have had a tiny, miniscule crush on his barrack buddy while they were training...)

TFA Breakdown and Knockout

Knockout was both really easy and really difficult (TFP Designs WILL be the death of me WHY ARE THEIR SO MANY MOVING PIECES) but I do love how he turned out. I'll probably shift his wheels back to his back next time though.

I don't say this kind of thing often, but I wish people would use the canonical design for TFA Breakdown, at least as a base for their designs.

Yeah, it's a recolor of Rodimus, but it's still fun to play with

Waspinator Recovery Thoughts

ft. Lynnie because that's her bestie (and for size reference lol)

It's supposed to say "dysphoria" not dysmorphia- it was 3am and I am a terrible at spelling/remembering words even at my most awake sorry lol

Anyways, thinking more on Wasp's recovery and figuring himself out, because while it was unstable, he did seem to enjoy his new organic form and i think it'd be fun to explore his more complicated feelings on the whole thing.

I do think if his Techno-Organic form was more stable it would be less monstrous (something something reflecting how the second time he undergoes the process he is safe and doesn't feel the need to lash out at the world as much something something).

Despite being "cured", Wasp's body was still unstable and causing him problems

Being in a safe environment with food and shelter and his improving mental health had helped, but he still was experiencing extreme body dysphoria (i spelled it wrong in the picture because it was 3am I'm sorry lol) and discomfort.

Lyn and Wasp at a car show to find a potential new Earth alti-mode (it was unsuccessful)

Wasp realizes he wants his "Waspinator" form back.

*Several shenanigans Later*

Waspinator's Techno Organic Form (now stabilized) is restored

Sharpest Shooter in the Galaxy… Eventually

I HC Moonracer’s was in the last group of cadet’s Rodimus trained and that she and her boot camp buddy’s might have been the reason he was so desperate to get back in field.

She learned a lot under him, though she is annoyed that he doesn’t entirely trust her aim to this day.

Probably....

say hi to antagony everybody

Random Notes:

Great War Vet (search & rescue, partnered with Red Alert and Novastar)

the only bot rumored to have made the medic full out laugh

despite his status as a noncombatant, he managed to regularly get into “scuffles” when retrieving soldiers from behind enemy lines

forged from the same protoform mold as OP, though he is slightly taller. (Inferno had a servo extension to better equip his S&R and Fire Fighting equipment in his Alt Mode)

Status Report: MIA. Last recorded activity was Inferno reporting receiving a distress beacon during a training mission with two new recruits, Tagger and QuickStrike. Despite being sent back to Cybertron while the senior bot investigated, reports indicate they disobeyed orders and followed him anyways. All three bot’s whereabouts are unknown and their signatures have yet to be detected in any known quadrants.

he needs an accent color to contrast the oranges but I love this design over all

Rough Sketches and Ramblings Below

I gotta figure out how to draw the more monstrous bots/predacons

I'm gonna be honest, I prefer G1 Inferno over BeastWars Inferno overall, so I'm probably not gonna go with it-

But there is a large pile of enticing angst with predacon!Inferno path with how everyone’s relationship dynamics play out in my head.

Eh- I'll figure out a way to have my cake and eat it too.

The Almanac is a very... interesting read

I have... opinions on some of the behind the scenes world building and what they had planned with S4 (it makes me a little glad the show ended where it did... writers it's bad enough you offed Prowl when you could have had restoring the Allspark be the Key's purpose instead of upgrading Sari- but then to further split up the team whyyyyy)

Anyway, here's Blitzwing and my take on him before the Triple-Changer experiment was done to him against his will and his former partner the cold hearted bitch who did it to him, also pre-op.

COMMISSIONS OPEN

Ramblings (no really- RAMBLINGS) below: I wanted to make this a comic but the Art wasn't Arting

TLDR: Lancer and Blitzwing were taken as prisoners of war by the autobots and Lancer made a lot of bad decisions to try and save his life within they circumstances which directly led to him becoming the first triple changer.

It's a little more complicated than this but basically Blitzwing (then known as Kaltwing) was hurt REALLY bad when he and Lancer were trying to retrieve the Allspark-about partway through the war. Like- missing his legs- wings ripped off- half his face blasted off bad.

So Lancer, or Himmel Lancer as she was then called, tried to put him back together with what she had on hand because she was not about to let her best friend go OFFLINE. This resulted in her basically frankenstein-ing him parts from a fallen tank decepticon's corpse as well as her own parts to try and keep him online.Most notably her own T-cog, as his was damaged and forcing him to attempt to transform at random. Because they were the same Frame type it was compatible enough to stabilize it when she fused the two ports.

Unfortunately, this still left him in extreme agony as Lancer was a RESEARCHER, not a Medic by any streatch of the word. It was one of those times he was pleading with her to offline him that they were caught by Autobots. With Blitzwing barley able to move and Lancer unable to transform, they were fish in a barrel.

The Autobots, after surgically stripping Lancer of ALL her weapons and installing a "contingency clause" protocol, allowed her to continue Blitzwing's "treatment" as well as forcing her to continue such experiments on other captured ‘cons. Many were curious to see where this "project" would go, even if most wouldn't openly agree to it themselves.

This went on for years with Blitzwing being their geniua pig until they reached the final straw for both of the former seekers.

Through a string of luck and incompetence, Lancer managed to achieve the two's original goal and stole the All-Spark right from under Ultra Magnus' nose. She was hoping it would reverse the damage she's done to him, and possibly restore herself in the process, but she was interrupted when the gaurds caught up with her and the contingency clause protocols activated and began frying her from the inside out.

While she was able to stabilize Blitzwing before all this and relieve him of the physical pain he'd been under, it came at cost. Between his fritzing original T-cog and the trauma of having endless, painful operations at the hands of his friend and subsequent the poor treatment from Autobots, his mind broke under the Allsparks "upgrades"z

During the chaos, he manages to break free and slaughters everyone in the facility including Lancer (at least he thought so). He was trying to grant her the clean death she refused him.

(Ironically enough, this damaged her enough for the protocols to think she'd offlined, and thus deactivate on their own).

He escapes back to the decepticons empty-handed and scary the shit out of everyone while Lancer is left to deal with the remaining wrath of the autobots.

Moonracer

I know I’m TFA the Autobot’s don’t use guns, so she should have something like a compound bow or a crossbow but one of the few things about her is that she is a SHARP SHOOTER…

Maybe she stole it from Swindle- it’s not like he’d be able to sell any weapon her size to a decipticon…

Phone drawings hence the smaller size

His only weakness; Paperwork

Jazz is by far one of the most competent autobots in the elite guard, but somehow his share of paperwork always seems to sneak up on him. It's not that he won't do it, or even minds doing it, it just the forms always get sent when he's in the middle of something so he files it away and forgets about it.

Sentinel's been telling (begging, pleading, ordering) him to get a secretary or at least an assistant for the better part of a century to take care of this for him. (Sentinal believe it or not has better things to do with his time than hound Jazz around for, say the Battle Simulation Approval request he sent to him over three weeks ago for his final signature)

"Wanna try that again?"

Moonracer's an easy going bot, but when you have her properly pissed off it takes a while for her to cool down.

Jetstorm, personally finds it very entertaining when she gets mad and fully supportive of his mini-bot's "Meanracer" moments.

i need to play more with the size difference between these two more

When your Hit Percentage Surpasses Mine Then YOU can Pick the Music

Rough storyboards for an animatic I eventually wanna do with Moonracer and Longarm.

BG Schpeal:

For the BA is Not E1 AU, like in G1, Elita's Squadron is proving to be the biggest threat Longarm/Shockwave's mission on Cybertron through their rare competence in their fields, or in Moonracer's case, her sheer stubborness to making sure her friends take a break.

One of Shockwave's few genuine outlets as Longarm is the shooting range- access granted to military personal only of course, and he was surprised to find that he had this in common with Moonracer. He was even more shocked (he he) to find just how good of a shot she was.
