Description What if the Matrix had passed not to Ultra Magnus or Hot Rod but instead to the least likely? Bumblebee gets the Prime reformat.

The name Auceps means spy or eavesdropper and also conveniently begins with Au, the chemical symbol for gold (suggestive of Bumblebee's previous upgrade to Goldbug).

Fantastic concept. The name might work even better if you go with "Aucupis", which is the genetive form (whatever that means ) [link]

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

fourth-heir In reply to studio-oneiros [2012-10-30 23:13:36 +0000 UTC]

It would be wrong though - the genitive case is used to imply ownership/possession. It would effectively say "The Eavesdropper's Prime", suggesting the Prime is an object owned by the eavesdropper rather than "Eavesdropper Prime" where the two words are both halves of a name.

Glad you like him

Hi Steve,

I just wanted to reach out to you personally and apologize for something that happened this past week. Our team at CarInsurance.org created a Transformers Generation 1 Infographic and used your image of Auceps Prime without your permission. Our mistake was to assume that if we were making a poster for non-commercial purposes that it would be okay to use fan-art, but that is clearly not the case. We regret using that image without permission and for mistaking him as Goldbug in our graphic. We have revised the poster, removed your image and will send out the correct versions to the blogs that posted the original.

Your artwork is fantastic, keep up the great work,

Amanda

Aww apology accepted and not entirely necessary anyway - it's the internet and I put my work up knowing full well somebody, somewhere will probably make use of it without thinking to ask (it's always nice when they do though). I never let it bother me unless I find them actively making money off it

Thanks so much for being so understanding, and I'm sorry again.
Best wishes - and again, your work is fantastic!

JadeZenRaven In reply to fourth-heir [2009-08-13 14:19:32 +0000 UTC]

No prob. I happen to love alt primes. There's a Galvatron Prime floating around. You did such a great job. Would love to see more alt primes. Arcee, Wheelie, Metroplex, Blaster, or maybe punch / counterpunch (just cause it's so unlikely.) Anyway like your work. keep it up.
