Description Did this a while back, and I've just realised that I never put it up here.

Its an intro thingamyjig to my OC Jumpstarters.

~EDIT-
Arse!!!
All my stuff is rendered in 3DSMax, and looking back at this I can see that it has struggled with some of the text, which sometimes happens when there is a lot of it, like here.
In case you can't make it out, the new Jumpstarters are.....
TAILFIN the Assault Jet (another Jetfire-alike)
TENEIGHTY the Snowskimmer
TERRAFIRMA the Bulldozer
THROWBACK the Missile Carrier
THUMBSCREWS the Claw Tank
TINDERBOX the Flamethrower Tank
TIPTRUCK the Dumptruck
TOUCHDOWN the APC
TRAILBLAZER the ATV
TRANSWARP the Shuttle/Carrier (think SkyLynx)
TREMORTRACKS the Tank
TRICKNUTS the Jetcycle
TRIPWIRE the Saw Tank
TUMBLETURN the Submarine
TURNPIKE the Dragster
TWINSPIN the Dual-Rotor Gunship
TWIST-TRAX the Corkscrew-tracked Tank
TYPHOON the Katamaran

As you can see, I have given them all 'T' names, and where possible referenced turning/twisting/spinning in their names too. (I'm a sucker for a precedent!!)

"All my stuff is rendered in 3DSMax"
you should look into Adobe's Illustrator, you can draw crisp border designs and make custom text box shapes - and it's all vector-based so it will be clear at any zoom level

I don't think that max is the issue......the problem is the limited graphic capabilities of my aged laptop. I've got lots of programs that I can't use...mudbox and google sketchup for example, just because as soon as I do something with them it disappears from the screen and I can't see it.

Intriguing... but what captures my attention is exploring the potential technology behind the Jumpstarters concept!

Nice intro - can't wait to see what you come up with.
Let's just not make them 18 siblings, you would need only to kill one to kill the whole lot
The Katamaran one has me intrigued - hell of an alt-mode from experience

On the subject of siblings and katamarans, Tumbleturn and Typhoon are Brother and Sister. Typhoon and Teneighty are femmes, I forgot to mention that.

Ooh, nice, Marine Siblings ! Let's just hope they don't turn half as reckless as their "originals".
Cool ^^ given the katamaran and snowskimmer's slender designs I suppose making them femmes kinda imposed itself

Stayin' plugged for incoming designs ^^
