Sister City Home Page Latest Updates City Citizens Enemies of the State Commemorating other Transformers  
The citizens consist of Autobots and Maximals residing on Sister City. The new generation of Maximal Transformers are currently being developed on earth. Being able to utilize DNA from local species, these Transformers function much more effectively on an organic planet.

  01-Aug-05 Moonchaser
A relative of Autobot Moonracer she is an assassin who slices foes with artistic grace. Moonchaser is a stealthy killer who likes to hunt at night and has a particular liking to bladed weaponry.

Inspired by the Night Elf Huntress from Warcraft III, I wanted to capture the strong, ferocious, yet nobel stalker who strikes out in persuit of justice. Yes, she could easily have been a Decepticon bad-girl but even the good guys should have some "edgy" characters.

  24-Dec-01 "Grinch" Hunter
My Christmas piece Slay Belle is an Autobot who deals swift justice to those who would spoil the Holiday Season.

  28-Mar-00 Maximal Amphibious Assault specialist: Ballistra
Here's the sketch of Maximal Ballistra.

The correct word for such a catapult weapon is "Ballista". I haven't really settled if I should go with the correct spelling or with the "r". Ballistra sounds better even tho no such word exists!

Ballistra is kind of the good version of BW Predacon Rampage. She's pretty formidable and larger than the average Beast Warrior. She transforms from ballista to lobster to robot.

Artist's commentary:
Perhaps not a true citizen since Transmetal types like her won't be created until mid-way thru the Beast Wars. Still, she was an interesting sketch so I want to show here off here.

Ballistra's design was driven by the name. I was searching thru the Thesaurus for weapon names and came upon this. "Ballista" sounded feminine enough so I created a transformer from her. Like the massive bow-like cannon in Warcraft, the long arms would make a great claw. While she turned out similar to Rampage, I actually had "Kiba" in mind _first_. (Kiba is one of those animal to weapon (bow) additions for a Japanese robot called "Gear Fighter Dendoh".) But yes, the strong influence of BW Rampage is obvious.

  28-Mar-00 Autobot Courier: Bee Line
Autobot citizen Bee Line darts about cities intent on delivering her packages on-time.

  28-Mar-00 Maximal Cavalier: Allison
Maximal citizen Allison transforms into a graceful "Allicorn". The "Allicorn" is a mythical creature like a Pegasus and Unicorn rolled into one.

  08-Mar-00 Autobot Bombardier: Blonde Bomber
Move over PowerGlide, a new "Warthog" is in town!
Autobot citizen Blonde Bomber is here!

  02-Mar-00 Maximal Hunter Katrina
First up for the citizens is Maximal Katrina!
She's a patient hunter like G1 Predacon Razor Claw but analytical skills like G1 Autobot Prowl or G1 Combaticon Onslaught.
