Vigilante Bardock

So I recently opened a Ko-fi account to earn some money to pay for my classes and to expand my skills as a 3D Artist.

Anyways, here are the prices:

Accessories, Weapons, or Tools: 5 dollars

Outfits of any kind: 10 Dollars

Custom Characters: 15 Dollars

One thing I’ve never liked about the Aligned Continuity was having Optimus being the reincarnation of the 13th prime.

To me it kind of undermined Optimus’s character as an ordinary Joe who was chosen by Primus because he had traits which Primus wanted to see in a Prime.

By making him a normal bot, it helps you connect with him as a character, because it shows you that anyone can become a good leader.

Anyways, that’s my soap box rant.

Something I threw together to showcase my new Optimus Prime model that I made from scratch.

Animated in Mikumikudance by me

Audio from Yu-Gi-Oh (I've been playing lots of Duel Masters lately and watching the anime)

Takes place shortly after War Dawn:

It had been a rough battle, but thanks to those five mysterious strangers blowing up that energy warehouse, the newly forged Optimus Prime had managed to drive Megatron and his forces out of Iacon City for the time being.

But it had come at a great price: two-thirds of the civilian populace had been greatly injured by Megatron’s assault on the city, with the other third having been killed.

And for what?

All so Megatron could display dominance and conquer Cybertron.

Optimus couldn’t help but feel as though he was responsible for Iacon’s current state.

And why shouldn’t I? The mech thought as he drove by the ruins of what was once a cargo ship. I invited Megatron into the warehouse, I told him we stored energy there. I… admired Megatron because he was powerful…

And Optimus had failed to see how Megatron used said power.

He drove past a headless Guardian Robot, a grim reminder of the casualties that had descended upon Iacon because of his poor character judgment.

And now the city, along with his friends, had paid the price.

Ariel… Dion…

Alpha Trion had said he’d do his best to fix them up and reconstruct them like he did with Optimus. In the meantime, he ordered Optimus to search the city and scour for any supplies, or more importantly, survivors who were in need of medical attention.

He was about to head back for the day when groaning was heard from among the debris, which surprised the young Autobot. His scanners detected no distress beacons in this vicinity. It’s a survivor. I have to help. Optimus quickly changed direction and headed toward the cry for help.

The sound grew louder as he got closer, eventually reaching the source of the cry. Transforming into his robot mode, Optimus saw that the mech in question was crushed beneath the remains of a statue that used to be Primon.

“Hold on, stranger!” Optimus exclaimed, removing the debris. “I’m here to help.”

Upon removing the last of the debris, he realized the injured mech in question was actually one of Megatron’s Decepticon soilders.

“Help…” the Con weakly groaned, his energon spilling out. “Please… Mercy…”

Mercy?

This Con was probably responsible for killing multiple civilians today, he was probably one of the Decepticons at the warehouse. Energon was on his servos, and he wanted mercy?

The young Autobot slowly raised his Ion Blaster at the soldier, ready to end his existence right then and there.

He deserves to die. Optimus thought, trying to bring himself to pull the trigger. He’s just another one of Megatron’s soldiers, if I let him live he’ll probably just kill more innocent and defenseless robots. Bots like-

Me…

For a moment, he was Orion Pax again, left for dead at that warehouse, along with so many other countless bots when Megatron had begun his attack.

He remembered lying there, dying. Orion recalled trying to pull himself together, praying to whoever was listening that he did not die today.

And then, they came.

Those mysterious five robots he had met earlier had come to his rescue and took him to Alpha Trion, where he had been reborn as Optimus Prime.

Five mysterious robots, strangers who had no reason to save him, other than it was the right thing to do. They could have fled for their lives, let him die. But, they instead chose mercy.

I must… be strong…” Optimus tried telling himself, looking at the Decepticon soldier. “I can’t… show him… mercy…”

At that moment Optimus felt good. He felt powerful, he felt strong, he felt-

just like Megatron…

Megatron did this to him, didn’t he? He shot him unarmed, defenseless, and left him to die. Optimus realized what he was doing. If he shot this injured and weak Con here and now, he would be just like Megatron.

Another killer.

No. He wouldn’t allow himself to become a monster.

Sighing, he lowered his weapon and instead opened his trailer, gently picking up the severely injured Decepticon and placing him inside. “Alpha Trion…” he spoke into the commlink. “I’ve got an injured Decepticon here. I’m.. bringing him to you…”

“… Very well,” The old mech replied. “I’ll have some security droids watch over him while he recovers.”

“Thank you…” The soldier whimpered just as the trailer closed on him, securing him in place.

Optimus said nothing, instead transforming into his vehicle mode.

If I am going to stop Megatron, I need to be better than him. He thought. I need to show mercy. True strength does not rely on taking the lives of others, but rather on helping those who lack the power to help themselves.

“Be strong enough… to be gentle…” Optimus whispered, driving off toward Alpha Trion’s workshop. “Yes… that is what I must be…”

——————————————————————-

Happy belated birthday to Peter Cullen! To the man who brought Optimus Prime to life.

I kind of wanted to tell a story from Optimus’s perspective from what happened after the events of War Dawn (obviously after the Arielbots were brought back to the present), so I threw this together.

Basically the current user can fuse any previous sentimonsters that were previously defeated into a new one.

The result has powers of both recipients.

For example, fusing Gigan with Feast creates a Sentimonster with both abilities. (Gigan has sycthe hands and a Buzzsaw stomach)

What do you think?

Based on this earlier post: https://www.tumblr.com/vigilante-bardock/822315762610995200/even-more-ridiculous-miraculous-fic-idea

Nathaniel Jr: I want to talk to… points at Nathaniel MY REAL MAMA!

Marc and Alix: Mama!?

Ladybug and Cat Noir: M-mama?

Nathaniel: Um… I uh… don’t know how to tell you this, but I’m a guy. So I can’t be your mama.

Nathaniel Jr: Then, you’re my Papa then!

Nathaniel: Papa?

————————————————————————

In all seriousness, though I feel like Nathaniel would be a genuinely good father to Junior, even if the latter was accidentally created through magical means.

Although I doubt he could BS his way out of an explanation when he’s confronted by his parents, especially when he confronts his mother(aka Junior’s “Grandmother”).

Tried my hand at drawing again for the first time in a while. So I ended up drawing @fayflutter OC Elodie.

This was my first attempt at drawing Elodie, btw.

Yes, I might try other the others next.

Megatron despises Twitter. He also busted out Nightbird first chance he got.

Starscream intentionally commits tax evasion and tax fraud. He also has a Twitter account.

Soundwave is secretly a huge fan of K-Pop Demon Hunters, his favorite character being Zoe.

Shockwave absolutely experimented on a random group of Decepticons to create Cenozoic based alt-modes to combat the Dinobots. He failed.

Thundercracker has a bad habit of mistaking every possum, raccoon, and bear cub for a lost kitten or puppy.

Skywarp once flirted with a random Earth jet. He was very embarrassed when he learned it wasn’t alive.

Frenzy and Rumble have a crush on Hatsune Miku and even once tried to use Decepticon resources to build her a body. Megatron was not pleased and destroyed the body, despite their seemingly sound argument of boosting their forces.

Ravage will knock things over.

Laserbeak and Buzzsaw despise poachers and will exterminate the poachers first chance they get.

The Constructions are the most human friendly Decepticons outside of Soundwave. They secretly go undercover with electronic paint to help humans with construction work.

Onslaught calls his fellow Combaticons “Maggots” They hate this.

Brawl is a huge fan of the Earth movie “Fury”

Vortex will sometimes read Earth Literature. His favorite is “The Odyssey”

Blast Off thinks he has the better shuttle mode compared to Astrotrain.

Swindle has a secret pawn shop he operates in Fresno, California called “Honest John’s” where the prices are surprisingly reasonable.

Fic Idea is inspired by Lio Junior’s Bio from Beast Wars II:

A surge of energy created from a fight between Ladybug and Mayura hits a passing Nathaniel.

At first, all seems well for a few weeks, until he comes home to see a child double of himself waiting at his front door, calling Nathaniel “Papa”

It turns out that when he got hit by the combined energy, it created a kid copy of Nathaniel.

Due to Nathaniel Junior’s unusual nature, (having been accidentally created from the Peacock and Ladybug clashing with each other) he can technically use both Peacock and Ladybug powers to a small degree. Also, both can feel when the other is in danger.

What’s weirder, is that Junior is technically not considered a Sentimonster because the Ladybug had prevented the need of an amok, making him a true living being.

Nathaniel genuinely doesn’t know how to deal with this development.

Marc is trying his best to support Nathaniel’s sudden entry to fatherhood. Alix, on the other hand is laughing her ass off.

Basically this happened when Nathaniel was hit by the combined energy:

Tagging:

Animation test I did for Nova Prime (I'm not going to lie, this was my first time ever doing a walk cycle. Also, in case it wasn't obvious, he's not actually moving when he's walking, the platform he's on is just sliding under him.)

After 4 days of work, Nova Prime is finally complete! He was actually very easy to make, I just took the Optimus Prime model I made and modified it into Nova Prime!

Anyways, unlike Optimus, Nova isn't going to be F2U, instead he's going to P2U.

Yes, that's right. You'll have to buy him. I know nobody likes to hear it when a model or motion has to be P2U, but I'm doing this to earn money.

But don't worry, he's not going to be at ridiculous price such as $78 or $60, instead I'm going to make him something more reasonable, and make him $25.

Features:

*Is full rigged with detachable guns on his legs and a detachable sword.

*His face is also fully rigged with eye and mouth keyshapes.

Rules:

NO:

NSFW stuff.

Got a model idea for me? Just got to my profile and pick one of three tiers for me to work on!

Prices are:

Accessories, weapons, tools, and props: 5 Dollars

Clothing: 10 Dollars

Custom Character: 15 Dollars

or you could support me on Ko-Fi:

I decided to make this 3D model while I was working on the Butterfly Villain Viceroy for Liar's Legacy.

I've had his Legacy Evolution toy for a year now (It's good; I would recommend it.), and I bought the DNA upgrade kit about a month after getting him (It's okay, but weapons storage for the guns can be a pain in the ass if you want to pose him).

I don't know why I chose to model him, maybe I'm just a sucker for Primes.

Are there any Magical Girl Combiners?

Like, is there a group of Magical Girls that can merge into one being.

And if there isn’t, why hasn’t there been one yet? Because if that is the case, then I feel like it’s such a missed opportunity.

I don’t know, what do you guys think?

On a totally unrelated note, I would love to have a magical girl or Super Sentai-themed Transformers team introduced at some point in the franchise.

Tagging people I think might believe this is an interesting concept (the combining magical girls, not the transformers having Sentai or Magical girl themed teams).

Wanted to showcase the Optimus Prime models I created from scratch.
