    "With the abduction of Maximal council member Ironhide, Prowl followed quickly behind. Without the combination power they had used to hold off the Tripredacus council in the past, Prowl altered his combination spark to a very different configuration for a very different and very ancient corpse left around after the great war."

    Pretty simple. Took a TR Alpha Trion and tried to repaint it as Beast Wars Prowl with some G1 liberties:
    -A reddish brown mane helps stand out(especially next to "Talonted" who I painted at the same time).
    - Sticking with the BW toy design, the blade is the same color as the fur, but with a proper lion tail fluff at the end via the spear-tip of the sword.
    - Inner knee section carved out slightly to allow it to NOT scuff the paint(again).
    - Swapped out the AlphaTrion headmaster with a Mindwipe instead. Used Contour putty to give it a proper faceplate similar to BW Prowl's Toy design(Which I'm aware is an open Primal-style faceplate, but I liked the look of it closed).
    - Used some black to at least slightly reference G1 Prowl's colors.
    - The headmaster in particular is basically G1 Prowl with tan replacing the white sections.

    Great job on both customs mate! Truly inspiring work.
    I am impressed and glad to see more natural tones on these customs. The Gryffon is beautiful, and this horned Lion is most excellent!
    Keep up the great work, I know I'll be watching for your future endeavors.

    *Glances up at headless Alpha Trion* This is a cool idea.

    Not these two. I was going to use the Alpha Prowl for it, but ultimately the big problem is Ironhide would have to be absolutely massive to pull off the same effect as the Kenner Ironhide. I would have to ATLEAST use a Energon Metroplex.

    I'll probably re-visit the idea when I have a bit more space in a few months and have a full work studio again.
